A Congressman who beat Karoline Leavitt in an election issued an apology on Sunday for unleashing the White House spokesperson upon the world, and gave some insider tips for how to beat her tactics.
Rep. Chris Pappas (D-NH), who is running a tight race for Senate, sent a campaign email over the weekend with a simple apology:
“I’m sorry about Karoline Leavitt.”
According to Pappas, “A few years ago, Karoline Leavitt ran against me for Congress here in New Hampshire. Her campaign was steeped in extreme MAGA rhetoric and zero connection to the actual issues Granite Staters face every day. Voters saw right through it and rejected her agenda by nearly 10 points.”
But that wasn’t the end of things, because her campaign gave her national visibility, according to the lawmaker.
“Unfortunately that race turned into a national audition. Now the same talking points and spin that New Hampshire voters dismissed are being used daily from the White House briefing room,” he wrote before dropping insider tips. “So if you’re wondering how the rest of the country ended up having to listen to Karoline Leavitt, it’s because New Hampshire proved something important first: Her extreme ideas don’t hold up when you put them in front of real voters.”
However, he added, “that hasn’t stopped the MAGA machine from trying.”
“National Republicans are pouring money into New Hampshire because they think they can break through and notch a win here to cling to their Senate majority,” he wrote next. “They’ve lined up behind John Sununu, an NRSC-backed candidate who will vote with Donald Trump and MAGA leadership when it matters most. It’s a new candidate reading from the same old playbook.”
