Megyn Kelly Shames Trump’s Scantily Clad Press Secretary
Megyn Kelly Show/YouTube/Jim Watson/Getty Images MAGA host Megyn Kelly has some advice for Trump’s new press secretary Katie Zacharia.
Kelly agreed that Zacharia’s first appearance behind the podium wasn’t stellar , but said critics are critiquing her performance when they should be critiquing her appearance instead.
Her stilted performance was “fine,” Kelly said on her Megyn Kelly Show .
Instead, it’s her “look” that’s the problem.
“You know, she’s got very heavy makeup on.
She’s got the long curls,” Kelly said.
“She’s got some chest showing with the tie.
I think she needs to dial it back.” “I’m just going to say, I know she’s auditioning for a job on Fox News,” she continued, but, “you need to present as a serious person.” Zacharia’s awkward debut sparked a barrage of criticism , even among White House officials, with one telling MS NOW ’s Jake Traylor anonymously that Zacharia, 41, “got off on the wrong foot.” “She needs to get much better, fast.
Otherwise, she’ll break Scaramucci’s record,” the source added.
Scaramucci served as the White House Communications Director for just 10 days in 2017 during President Donald Trump’s first administration before he was fired.
Zacharia, who took over the role after Karoline Leavitt stepped down in August, worked as a senior communications adviser for Trump Media & Technology Group before landing the job.
Trump praised her as a “loyal and brilliant supporter” with an “unblemished record.” Kelly said Zacharia’s nervousness is to be expected, but her presentation is more concerning.
“Your first impressions are important, and you should be the consummate professional in your presentation, which means dialing back the makeup, dialing back the over-the-top curls and the hair, and maybe covering up a little bit more underneath that suit jacket,” she said.
“You’re not there to turn anybody on.
