Trump spokesperson defends Dingell comments: 'The president is a counter-puncher'

White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham on Thursday described President Trump as a "counter-puncher" after the president lashed out at Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-Mich.) during a rally in Michigan on Wednesday night, making a reference that her late husband, former Rep. John Dingell (D-Mich.), was "looking up" from hell.

"He has been under attack and under impeachment attack for the last few months and then just under attack politically for the last two and a half years," Grisham said when asked why Trump made the comment.

"We all know the president is a counter-puncher. It was a very, very supportive and wild crowd and he was just riffing on some of the things that had been happening the last few days," she continued.

She also thanked the Dingells for their service to the U.S.
