Well that was fun. In last week’s welcome bit of comic relief, we got the vapid rise and rapid fall – despite requisite blonde hair, faux smile and passing resemblance to Ivanka – of “manifestly unqualified” Barbie News Reader and fake Chinese lawyer Katie Zacharia after a brutal debut. So much for MAGA meritocracy. SAD! Zacharia set a new speed record – half a Mooch – in a job akin to Spinal Tap drummer. But the question remains: When will the incompetent male<\/em> dolts get fired?<\/p>\n

While by far not the most substantive Trump blunder, it was one of the most cringeworthy, exposing (again) the profound ineptitude of his shambolic rule just before voters go to the polls to render judgment on it. In less than a week, Zacharia managed to get plucked from right-wing obscurity, be “shoehorned” into a job far beyond her skillset, humiliate herself before millions, go on Fox<\/em> and stammeringly fail to redeem herself, and get fired by a capricious, perennial loser who got famous fake-firing people on TV and now daily exposes his own clownish unfitness for his<\/em> job. One astute observer: “I’m starting to think this Donald guy might not have any idea what he’s doing.” <\/u><\/p>\n

Born Kate Sharon Black in 1984, Zacharia grew up<\/a> in California in the “liberal cesspool\u201d of Cambria; she was the conservative \u201cblack sheep\u201d of her family “thanks to the great, late Rush Limbaugh, who raised me as a kid on the radio.” Describing <\/u><\/a>a clash with woke patrons of her “cardio kickboxing gym,” she said the owner once asked her not to wear her “Trump 2024” hat but “I would never take my Trump hat off to appease the left.” A Pizzagate, Qanon and Stop the Steal buff, she was a “huge fan <\/u><\/a>of ICE and Border Patrol” who briefly worked for Kristi Noem and a commentator for right-wing TV before being spotted <\/a>by Trump, maybe because she scheduled her gigs when she thought he’d be watching. Totally normal.<\/u><\/p>\n

Officials looking to replace Karoline Leavitt had reportedly narrowed <\/u><\/a>down the list of candidates “only to find that (they’d) said something negative about (Trump),”<\/u><\/u> which of course wouldn’t do for the fragile toddler. Thus did uber-obsequious, ringlet-bottle-blonde “lizard person” Zacharia take to the podium, blare “Good morning!!” in a sing-songy screech, and stumble through a smiley, halting, inflection-challenged <\/a><\/strong>briefing <\/a>about Trump’s “historic one-day war,” “attendance at record highs as enthusiastic hardworking Americans are lining up and packing arenas,” a “booming economy….and a, um, he, great relationship…with Venezuela…um, and…my president, excuse me, my husband, that’s a good one…” Not.<\/p>\n

After the one question on Ukraine<\/a>, and the famous, \u201cI\u2019ll have to get back to you on that,\u201d it was over. 14 minutes, or forever in bimbo time. It got worse. The oft-repeated claims <\/a>of being a lawyer when she\u2019d failed the bar – weirdly, thanks<\/a> Hannity – and of working in China on \u201cinternational transaction law\u201d when she was basically a paid intern. The verdict: “A train wreck,” “a joke hire,” “talk about a public execution,” “between the 3rd-grade level reading and the fake attorney in China thing, brutal.” Anti-DEI,.scandal-plagued Rick Santorum’s glowing<\/a> review: She was “not even close to the worst.” Trump’s lazy excuse: “I told her, ‘If I were you, I’d reconsider.'” Fox: She’s “transitioning” out of the job she held for 14 minutes.<\/p>\n
