Conservative columnist Gavin Wax has found himself in a pickle for his "sexist" comparison of White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki and her predecessor, Kayleigh McEnany. Wax took to Twitter where he retweeted an image that had Psaki and McEnany side-by-side in a collage. He captioned it: "Stunning and smart press secretary Kayleigh vs. ugly to the bone Jen Psaki" while also adding a comment that read: "Kayleigh was TV ready every morning[.] Psaki can't bother to prep or do her makeup."

This sparked outrage on the platform with netizens slamming Wax as "sexist", "moronic" and "petty" among other things. The Daily Dot called Psaki's briefings as a "rather staid affair" compared to the "antagonism, conspiracy theories, and lies of those who served in the position under Donald Trump, most recently Kayleigh McEnany."

"Only here for the ratio, which you absolutely deserve for being a sexist, moronic tool," read one of the comments. This was seconded by another who wrote, "You know it is very shallow to judge people based on their appearance; and sexist too. Why do I care what she looks like? Does that affect her performance as press secretary?"

"Now this is sexism folks. Like makeup is needed. A real man knows that much make up means underneath they are ashamed of who they are. Psaki doesnt need makeup bc she can look herself in the mirror," read one of the tweets. "And if either of the press secretaries were men, this conversation wouldn't be happening. Women have had enough hurdles to climb, let alone this kind of smarmy shit," another reckoned. Some felt this was a rude shock. "I can't believe that any human being would be stupid enough to post something like this."
