The skills necessary to be a good press secretary are so utterly, diametrically opposed to mine that I view it as a kind of dark magic. I just love watching Psaki work.
Be polite and indulgent when you're disgusted.
Say a thing without actually saying it.
Answer a question without actually answering it.
Burn someone to the ground while smiling & saying nice words.
Refuse distractions and repeat a small set of core messages.
It's all magic.

Other part: no, are you bananas, that will cause a scandal! What else you got?
One part: ...
...
Me: [grimaces silently]
