Enter the Zachbot: Trump’s new press secretary malfunctions on podium debut

Well, that was weird. Katie Zacharia, the new White House press secretary, made her debut on the podium on Tuesday with all the warmth, wisdom and political dexterity of an AI avatar.

Zacharia was all stilted delivery, nervous tics and lack of eye contact. With an eerie lack of emotion, she served up pro-Trump talking points, took only three questions and vanished after 14 minutes. It was like the West Wing had turned into uncanny valley.

The Zachbot’s past is indeed a bit of a mystery. The 41-year-old claims to be a lawyer but later a reporter asked when she passed the bar exam and she gave the unconvincing answer: “When I moved to China.” She was plucked from relative obscurity for the White House job after a brief gig at the Department of Homeland Security and a stint at the Trump Media and Technology Group.

Wearing a dark jacket with big gold buttons on Tuesday morning, she entered the standing-room-only briefing room and stepped on to the podium as Trump’s sixth press secretary. For James Bond fans, that means we’ve reached the Daniel Craig era. For Doctor Who fans, it means the regeneration that brought us Colin Baker (not the show’s golden age).

Zacharia has the blond hair, glossy makeup and Fox News aesthetic of her immediate predecessors Kayleigh McEnany and Karoline Leavitt (her name also begins with a “K” – surely a tell to the AI detectors). But it was Trump’s first press secretary, Sean Spicer, to whom she inadvertently paid homage.

“Attendance is at record highs as enthusiastic, hard-working Americans are lining up and packing arenas to support President Trump and Republicans,” she said of Trump’s campaign rallies, echoing Spicer’s debut that falsely boasted of the biggest inaugural crowd ever.

In truth, there have been plenty of empty seats at Trump’s rallies this time around and an unusually high number of interruptions from protesters.

The Zachbot read from prepared notes about Trump’s many great accomplishments, awkwardly glancing up at her audience less than she should, smiling at odd moments and putting the emphasis on all the wrong words. “A great relationship …” (looks down, sighs, sounds like her cat just died) “with Venezuela”.

It was bad. Toe-curlingly, don’t-know-where-to-look bad. At least Leavitt had delivered her propaganda hot. Evidently Trump’s communications team have found new and ingenious ways to torture reporters.

Then came questions, first from rightwing Breitbart News, then rightwing Fox News, whose correspondent Peter Doocy wondered whether the US had stopped sharing intelligence with Ukraine. The Zachbot froze for a millisecond. “I will have to get back to you on that,” came the auto response.

Next up was the rightwing Daily Mail, asking about an alleged bribery scandal involving Kimberly Guilfoyle, the US ambassador to Greece, ex-fiancee of Donald Trump Jr and notorious screamer of “The best is yet to come!” The Zachbot said coldly: “We have asked Ambassador Guilfoyle to resign. She has been a wonderful asset to the team and we wish her well.”

She nodded awkwardly. It was like every dystopian sci-fi film where the machine informs some hapless human that they will be terminated in 10 seconds.

The Mail followed up with “a personal question” that would surely never be asked of a male press secretary: “Your family is in California. Your husband, your four children. I’m wondering how you are going to manage that.”

The Zachbot gave her husband a shout-out and said she loved being with her children. “The idea of not spending evenings with my kids is completely unacceptable. So my president – excuse me, my husband – that’s a good one.”

Zacharia has repeatedly referred to herself as a lawyer throughout her media career, and Trump hailed Zacharia as an “attorney” in his Truth Social post announcing her appointment to the highly scrutinized role. But asked on Tuesday where she passed the bar exam, Trump looked back at his new press secretary and asked her, “Which state?”

“When I moved to China,” she said.

“One cannot take an American state bar exam in China. Bar exams are administered at designated testing locations in each state of the union,” said Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu, who serves on the House Judiciary Committee.

” Zacharia has the blond hair, glossy makeup and Fox News aesthetic”

It’s all fake. Fake lips, fake tits, fake blond hair.

I wonder what more can be fake?

The only question that matters: is she REALLY loyal to Trump? Would she take a bullet for him?
