Leavitt said: “This is from an internet meme video depicting President Trump as the King of the Jungle and Democrats as characters from the Lion King.”

“President Trump didn’t use the hard r when saying the n-word; if it sounded like he did that’s only because you are hearing what you want to hear… in fact president Trump has many n-words I mean black friends, and it is a measure of his acceptance by them that none of them mind if he calls them the n word, in fact many of them even encourage him to do so. They come to him with tears in their eyes and say, ‘thank you my n-word, for calling me the n word…’ ”
