White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has blamed former President Joe Biden for the difficulty her predecessor, Karine Jean-Pierre, had in her role as the top White House spokesperson. She cited Biden's lack of accessibility as a reason for her inability to communicate with her boss in an open and transparent manner. Jean-Possible, who replaced Jen Psaki in 2022 and served until Biden's departure, was criticized for sticking to talking points and providing little information during her White House briefings. In contrast, President Donald Trump is more direct and open with his team, making his job easier.
