I have no idea what the facts are.

My statement is contained to the amount of credibility I assigned given the source of the complaint.

It may all wind up being true for all I know.

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



It's not about answering questions directly, but delivering the non-answer in a way that is confident and sounds right

Pretty much the press secretary’s job is to be able to lie to a pack of liars.

I’d say “they aren’t sending their best”, but she may infact be their best.

Wow.

FOX asked her THE question: do you still have the confidence of the President?

FWIW, she didn't say "yes."

1 week maybe. Liar and fraud.


Agreed, she publicly presented herself as an attorney and held position of general counsel for a nonprofit. In the very least unethical, possibly criminal if she actually practiced without a license.

She has a credibility issue regardless of her abilities or lack thereof.

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

Between this and Hannity, it almost feels like she's being set up for failure. Like the admin is happy to have very public pain points visible so that when she "steps away" in a few weeks they have some cover and explanation.

She is the Press Secretary the press deserves.

If she's a bad fit for the role, let her tank and then give the MSM Stephen Miller for the remainder of the term.

My biggest issues with her is seeing that she was clearly chosen because of 1) looks and 2) undying loyalty to Trump, promising to serve him as a propaganda machine. I was hoping she would be similar to Karoline at least, coherent, competent and unintimidated but KZ is total opposite of all of those attributes. In other words, Trump hired a fangirl who isn’t qualified or prepared in any capacity for fending off the wolves.

And tbh, Trump doesn’t need more sycophants in roles like this, he needs people who can tactfully answer questions in his favor, but not be awkward, robotic circle back gaslight machines when people ask hard questions.

Also it’s important to be critical of stuff like this, or else it won’t get better. People acting like any kind of negative feedback is solely an attempt to sabotage need a reality check.
Hannity asking KZ rather softball questions was an opportunity for her to look better based on how she chose to respond and she dropped the ball again. Thus far everything that makes her look bad has been her own doing.

Lots of people are speculating that Trump wants her gone...but she was at the White House today. So, who knows....

They'll just keep asking him how he fricked up a simple tariff implementation over and over again until he melts down

Is FOX in on this coordinated, leftist attack?


I heard Mike Gallagher on the radio speculate that Trump called Hannity and asked him to grill her and make her look bad because Trump wasn’t feeling her, and he needed fodder to fire her.

Hannity gets paid by FOX to make POTUS Trump look bad.

Yup. Watching both FOX interviews, it seemed like the order had been sent out.
