What is this? Trump's new secretary never passed the bar exam.

Hmm, wait a minute.

We have Trump announcing her as the press secretary, describing her as an attorney, an attorney at law, lawyer.

So now I'm confused because the one thing, based on, uh, some quick research into her, that I was able to know is that she was a lawyer.

By the way, I, I just can't get enough of this, this Katie Zacharia story.

I think I solved a mystery.
