WH Press Secretary Says Gen Z 'LAZY,' 'SILVER SPOON'
What was said
"Unfortunately, I do because this generation, my generation, I hate to say it, Gen Z and those younger than me have been raised with just silver spoons in their mouth, just getting everything handed to them. That's not the values this country was built on."
White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt told Fox News host Jesse Watters that young Americans complaining about affordability issues are lazy and raised with silver spoons in their mouths. When asked if it's laziness, she confirmed it's a combination of laziness and liberal indoctrination in education. The comments sparked backlash from right-wing influencers who noted Levitt married a wealthy man significantly older than her.
