重申她对特朗普“让美国再次伟大”愿景的支持，扎卡里亚表示，没有人能像特朗普那样让美国变得伟大，并且他仍在继续这样做。
Reaffirming her support for Trump's Make America Great Again vision, Zacharia said no one could make America great the way Trump has and continues to.
就在她被解除白宫新闻秘书职务仅五小时后，凯蒂·扎卡里亚赞扬了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的领导力，形容他是一个善良且慷慨的人。她还表示，为他工作是一种“荣誉”。
Hours after being removed as White House Press Secretary after just five days in the role, Katie Zacharia praised US President Donald Trump's leadership, describing him as a kind and gracious person. She also said it was an “honour” to work for him.
“特朗普总统是一个善良、美好、慷慨、体贴、热情且勤奋的人。为他工作是一种荣誉，”扎卡里亚在写道。“我希望更多的美国人能够欣赏他。没有人能像他那样让美国变得伟大，并且他仍在继续这样做，”她写道。
“President Trump is a kind, wonderful, gracious, thoughtful, enthusiastic, and hardworking man. It was an honour to work for him,” Zacharia wrote on“I wish more Americans appreciated him. No one will ever make America great the way he has and continues to,” she wrote.
特朗普此前曾表示，在扎卡里亚因其专业资历和首次白宫新闻发布会而遭遇激烈媒体审查后，他曾敦促她重新考虑该职位。
Trump had earlier said he urged Zacharia to reconsider the position after she faced intense media scrutiny over her professional credentials and her first White House press briefing.
“我告诉她，我认为你最好还是开心一点，”特朗普对记者说。“我希望她能拥有一个美好的生活。我不希望她过上像过去三天那样的生活。”他还回忆起自己对她说的话：“凯蒂，你需要这个吗？我不认为你需要这个。”特朗普表示，他认为媒体对她的待遇不公平，并将这种批评描述为残酷的。
“I told her, I think you're better off being happy,” Trump told reporters. “I want her to have a good life. I don't want her to have a life like she's led the last three days.”He also recalled telling her, “Katie, do you need this? I don't think you need this.”Trump said he believed she had been treated unfairly by the media and described the criticism as brutal.
资历与首次发布会受质疑 扎卡里亚本周早些时候接替了卡罗琳·利维特。她周一上班，次日举行了她的首次新闻发布会。该发布会持续不到15分钟，扎卡里亚仅回答了三位记者的提问。
QUESTIONS OVER CREDENTIALS, FIRST BRIEFING Zacharia took over from Karoline Leavitt earlier this week. She began work on Monday and held her first press briefing the following day. The briefing lasted less than 15 minutes, with Zacharia taking questions from just three reporters.
随后，她的法律资历问题也加剧了审查。扎卡里亚曾表示她从事国际交易法工作“具备所有适当的资历”。然而，她在周四接受福克斯新闻采访时承认，她尚未通过律师资格考试。
Questions over her legal credentials soon added to the scrutiny. Zacharia had said she practised international transaction law “with all the appropriate credentials." However, she acknowledged in a Fox News interview on Thursday that she had not passed the bar examination.
特朗普驳回了关于她的律师考试记录会影响他任命她的决定的说法。“嗯，我不是在雇她当律师。我是在雇她当新闻秘书，”他说。
Trump dismissed suggestions that her bar exam record would have affected his decision to appoint her. “Well, I wasn't hiring her to be a lawyer. I was hiring her to be a press secretary,” he said.
扎卡里亚的离职使得特朗普在11月中期选举前仅两周多的时间里没有永久的白宫新闻秘书。特朗普表示，他并不急于任命继任者。
Zacharia's exit leaves Trump without a permanent White House press secretary just over two weeks before the November midterm elections. Trump has said he is in no hurry to appoint a successor.
