Later, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed the matter in a statement to Fox News Digital. “President Trump is a man of the people and he meets more Americans and shakes their hands on a daily basis than any other President in history,” she said, adding, “His commitment is unwavering and he proves that every single day.”
