White House Director of Communications Steven Cheung has dubbed the fallout over the recent American Eagle advertisement starring Sydney Sweeney as "bull****" in a post on social media. Newsweek reached out to American Eagle and Sweeney via email for comment.

Sydney Sweeney has been defended by the White House, which called liberals ‘moronic’ for being upset after her American Eagle ad featuring the phrase ‘Sydney Sweeney has great jeans’ sparked controversy.

The White House thinks the Left’s reaction to the Sydney Sweeney American Eagle jeans ad is “moronic,” as well as further proof as to why President Trump won the election. Trump’s communications manager Steven Cheung called out the ongoing outrage surrounding the new campaign showing Sweeney touting herself for having great jeans – a play on the actress’ genes.

In an unusual but pointed intervention, the White House has stepped into the cultural fray to defend actress Sydney Sweeney over her latest American Eagle jeans commercial – a simple ad that has become an unexpected lightning rod for online outrage.
