McEnany came out cocky and quickly unraveled into a gaffe machine

McEnany pledged never to lie to the press during her first briefing on May 1, an assertion that was challenged by fact-checkers noting that she thereafter offered an inaccurate description of a document unsealed in former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s case and overstated aspects of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation

White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany once weighed in on an American leader golfing while Americans are mourning: It’s inappropriate.

But she wasn’t talking about President Donald Trump golfing as the nation edges closer to a 100,000 death tally from COVID-19.

She was complaining in 2017 about former President Barack Obama

Chris Wallace was back to challenging the Trump administration on “Fox News Sunday” this week, criticizing Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany for impugning the faith of reporters who questioned the president’s push to reopen places of worship.

On Friday, Trump threatened to “override” the authority of governors if they did not reopen religious buildings that have been closed in an effort to control the spread of COVID-19. When reporters told McEnany that the president had no legal authority to do so, she responded by saying she found it “interesting to be in a room that desperately wants to seem to see these churches and houses of worship stay closed.”

McEnany then told the White House press corps what questions they should be asking, specifically, about Mike Flynn.

“I spent six years in the White House briefing room covering Ronald Reagan,” Wallace began on his Sunday broadcast. “I have to say, I never — and in the years since too — I never saw a White House press secretary act like that. I have to say that if Kayleigh McEnany had told Sam Donaldson and me what questions we should ask, that would not have gone well.”

He went on: “Kayleigh McEnany isn’t acting like she’s working for the public. She acts like she is what she used to be, which is a spokesperson for the Trump campaign.

I mean the WHPS's job is to push the White House's message, but this lady takes propaganda to new ****in levels.

What's even more bizarre out of McEnany's mouth, was that the press should be asking her about Flynn. In who's universe does that make sense? Why would any reporter at a briefing by white house press secretary, ask the secretary about Flynn? Versus America's pandemic, economic crisis and of course the man McEnany represents-trump

"You will only ask questions approved by the State, citizen!"
