Trump delays naming replacement for Leavitt as White House press secretary remains vacant

Donald Trump's press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, left the White House at the end of August. But the president is in no hurry to find a replacement.

Since Karoline Leavitt resigned as press secretary, the position has been vacant, and Vice President JD Vance, among others, has had to step in and hold press conferences.

And that is how it will continue to look, Trump says.

"Do you know what we're going to do for a while? We're going to have ministers from different departments hold the press conferences," he said on Sunday.

But in the end I will choose someone, he assured.

Leavitt, who has been described as one of the president's closest aides, said she was leaving for family reasons. She had her second child this spring.
