Katie Zacharia clashed with British presenter Victoria Derbyshire during Tuesday night's BBC Newsnight broadcast on 10 November 2026 as the pair debated the Republican Party's midterm performance. The former White House press secretary repeatedly interrupted the presenter while defending the Republican Party and challenging questions about the election results.
Zacharia, whose tenure as White House press secretary lasted just five days in October, argued that the midterm results did not represent a serious setback for Trump.
