From Scott Jennings to Danielle Alvarez, several candidates may be in US President Donald Trump's list to succeed Katie Zacharia who lasted just five days as White House press secretary. Zacharia was dismissed by Trump following a rocky first press briefing.
Trump, however, appears in no hurry to make a decision. His administration is focused on the November 3 midterm elections, and the next press secretary is not expected to be named until after the vote. “President Trump and his team are focused on the midterm election,” White House communications director Steven Cheung said when asked about the timeline for selecting Zacharia’s successor.
