    Oh no, her true normal human appearance.

    This incident will accelerate her case of Mar-a-Lago Face.

    I never would’ve seen this photo if they hadn’t mentioned they were upset with it.

    Perfect example of the Streisand Effect. I would never have seen this photo if it weren’t for this article.

    I would have never seen this picture if not for this, and my life would have been measurably better.

    the agency was “made aware” that the White House did not like the photo, but stressed that the decision to remove the image was “an internal editorial one, based on our standard quality and selection criteria” and that there was no external pressure.

    For what it’s worth, as an amateur photographer I agree. It’s a very weird image of Karoline Leavitt towering over a turkey and—as the oblique angle suggests—threateningly.

    What meltdown? All I read is that some made the whitehouse aware the photo was unflattering.

      Be honest…nothing could ever really make her fuckable for a man with any sort of taste. The devil himself would do a hard pass on that ass. Source: I am Satan.
