Karoline Leavitt reveals 'anti-climatic' way Trump told her she’d be press secretary: ‘Oh, by the way’

There was no formal meeting and no big announcement, just a brief phone call.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said President Donald Trump informed her she had the job in a simple post-election call, telling her: "Oh, by the way, you know, you’re going to be the White House press secretary, right?"

Speaking at a Turning Point USA event at George Washington University on Thursday evening, Leavitt described the moment as "the most anti-climatic thing ever" and said the job offer came without any formal process.
