‘A depraved lie’: Karoline Leavitt lashes out at Dems blaming Trump after flood



White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt alleged that Democrats had blamed President Donald Trump for the recent deadly flooding in Texas.

During Monday's White House press conference, Leavitt lashed out at Trump's critics.

"Unfortunately, in the wake of this once-in-a-generation natural disaster, we have seen many falsehoods pushed by Democrats such as Senator Chuck Schumer and some members of the media," she said. "Blaming President Trump for these floods is a depraved lie, and it serves no purpose during this time of national mourning."

The press secretary insisted that "the National Weather Service did its job" despite staffing cuts.

"The National Weather Service office in New Braunfels, which delivers forecasts for Austin, San Antonio, and the surrounding areas, had extra staff on duty during the storms, despite claims of the contrary," Leavitt asserted. "So to any person who has deliberately lied about these facts surrounding this catastrophic event, you should be deeply ashamed."

"May God bless the great people of Texas, especially the parents who have lost their children," she added. "President Trump loves you."
