She was a terrible hire, but the White House would have to admit they didn't properly vet her. Since admitting a mistake isn't an option for Trump, Inc., I will take the over.

She will probably quietly resign on a Friday during the holidays to spend more time with her family.

The White House tipped its hand this morning. Keep her as press secretary for awhile. Just don't let her perform the duties of press secretary. Shield her from reporters:

oh my god this interview was a disaster for Zacharia. I've never seen Hannity do someone who works for Trump like this


Was there more to the interview? I ask because I didn't see "disaster" at all. At most she came across as someone not used to being on camera.

To echo SFP, she's at KJP level right now. Contrary to SFP though, I'm not ready to condemn her to that being her peak. I'm willing to give her a week or three to see how she handles the heat.

I hope it's just nerves and she starts feeling more comfortable soon. Poor lady.

Yikes that was just word salad it’s like Carmine jr in the Sopranos trying to sound smart

Trump needs to stop hiring bimbos. It’s embarrassing

Below is the entire 6:46 interview with Hannity. She demonstrated exactly why she is the worst press secretary ever hired.

Rather than take any responsibility, she made the Administration look bad. Yes, the Administration was wrong not to vet her. Yes, whoever insisted on her giving a briefing before she was remotely ready was wrong.

A good press secretary would have taken one for the team. "I let my excitement and enthusiasm get the better of me. I so much appreciated the opportunity to work for the best president ever. Clearly though, I underestimated the complexity of this wonderful job, and gave a substandard performance because I was unprepared. I apologize. That won't happen again."

Given that this is a coordinated attack by artificial news and the communist left, its credibility is highly dubious.

This is exactly where I'm at as well. The press pool doesn't deserve another Kayleigh. Just follow the Biden playbook of Circle Back and French Dip level of aptitude. So going forward just take 3 or 4 friendlies with a "We'll have to get back to you on that" and turn up the blades and sound on Marine One to drown out any follow up questions. Wash rinse repeat for the next 2 years. Have fun with it.

I got ripped when I made fun of the hot assistant one we initially thought was the pick because she was almost straight out of ASU or something. Then, when Zacharia was announced and I saw she had a law degree and had seemingly been around the block in R circles, I figured she was competent.

These hot blondes almost invite more scrutiny.

I don’t think it will hurt Trump at the polls, but IvoryBillMatt was right in that it’s an unforced error when he didn’t need one.

It’s starting to look like she’s just the republican version of Jen psaki who got the nod because her family is a major donor. Except Psaki received a couple years of finishing school watching from the shadows before taking the stage.

I doubt she’s ever overcome adversity and this pressure will crush her. The only question is whether she’ll last longer than scaramucci.

I hate saying this, but she’s in AOC territory with the way she speaks/inability to actually answer questions.

Time to start our own version of The Liz Truss Lettuce Watch?

Can we put up a commemorative plaque if the lettuce wins?

Do a bunch of y'all hide under the same big rock?
Is FOX in on this coordinated, leftist attack?

She hasn't gotten any better as of this morning. She literally can't tell FOX anything that's not publicly reported:

Odd hire because Leavitt, McEnany, and Sanders were all very good at their jobs
