Karine Jean-Pierre Totally Destroys Peter Doocy and Twitter Roars with Applause
Karine Jean-Pierre, or “KJP,” as she’s already affectionately known among the liberal centers on the net, has a tough act to follow in an already tough job. But she learned by sitting in the briefing room watching Jedi Jen Psaki teach her daily Master Class in owning, dunking, spanking, bombing, whatever word one wants, on Peter Doocy. Hey, it’s part of the job description.
And so, you know, given that today is KJP’s first day as the regular new White House Spokesperson, and her first press conference, she would have to let Doocy know who’s boss right away. We do want to note that as big a doofus as Doocy can be, he was quite gracious to Psaki when she left.
So it is possible that Doocy, perhaps without even knowing it, tee’d up a question for KJP to smack into the kids’ area play area behind the left-field bleachers on purpose… No, there’s no chance. He never saw it coming.
Now, some of the power of the answer is lost in the fact that Karine, surely being a little nervous and not wanting any gaffes on her first day, was essentially reading the answer. But the words are the punch, and the words are what will be quoted in any article. We also know that the words will be delivered more forcefully with time as she gains experience. Besides, the fact that she had her answer written out means she prepared, and preparation is how it works at this level and is required to get this sort of result.
Doocy: Jeff Bezos tweeted about that…
KJP: It’s not a huge mystery why one of the wealthiest individuals on Earth opposes an economic agenda that is for the middle class.. pic.twitter.com/ZZcQU7UHBg— Acyn (@Acyn) May 16, 2022

Twitter went nuts:
She appears to be a worthy successor to Jen Psaki…and has the same talent for dunking on Doocy.

LOL He probably thought departure of Psaki meant easier times for him. Enter KJP – another beautiful but lethal-to-BS Press Secy 😈

I think Doocys going to figure out how smart KJP is pretty quickly.

Jen Psaki just left, and already Peter is letting another woman humiliate him.

Doocy about to get bitch-slapped every day again.
— Filip Van Overbeke (@FOverbeke) May 16, 2022
Doocy is definitely a masochist and he's getting off on being humiliated.
