Trump's women crisis is becoming a problem say White House insiders as brutal medical crises, sudden exits and scandals keep MAGA females in turmoil: 'It's unforgiving'

Katie Zacharia's brutal five-day stint as White House press secretary is the latest demonstration that no one in President Donald Trump's orbit holds 100 percent job security.

'It is an unforgiving universe where loyalty offers no permanent protection,' one advisor close to Trump told the Daily Mail as Zacharia was still being ushered out of the West Wing on Friday.

But to keen-eyed observers the dismissal was less surprising because of her gender.

'It is objectively harder to be a woman in this universe. The scrutiny is microscopic,' said a former staffer from Trump's first term.

In response, the White House touted Trump's work to assemble 'the greatest administration in history.'

'Unlike the identity-politics-obsessed Democrats, the president judges individuals on merit and qualifications, not immutable characteristics. That's common sense and what makes this country great,' said White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers.

But the 41-year-old Californian is just the latest in a cascade of high-profile women to be dumped from Trump's second-term team.  

Kimberly Guilfoyle's abrupt departure as US Ambassador to Greece made headlines worldwide this week. When Kristi Noem was kicked to the curb in March, it was attributed to an inability to meet the president's policy goals and sentiment she was more focused on self-promotion. 

And Trump is now secretly polling trusted allies on whether to dump his Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, once seen as invincible. 

While the reasons for staff departures vary as Trump 2 am Truth Social posts, the majority of exits have been by women. 

Guilfoyle's downfall followed a wave of damaging reports from the Daily Mail and The Wall Street Journal detailing allegations of ethical misconduct, pay-to-play operations and official State Department investigations into her role in Greece.

Guilfoyle has insisted that the accusations against her are 'false,' and vowed to 'vigorously defend' her name. 

The final blow landed on national television, where Zacharia confirmed to the Daily Mail that the former fiance of Donald Trump Jr. had been asked to step down.

Little did she know she would be the personnel victim 72 hours later.

Largely missed amid the Zacharia and Guilfoyle maelstroms this week was the news that Noem quietly slid out of her role as a special envoy to the 'Shield of the Americas' coalition, the low-profile entity she was quietly shipped to after her firing. 

She announced on Friday that she would still be working at the State Department as a 'senior advisor.' 

Meanwhile, the White House communications shop remains in a state of constant churn.

Zacharia only got a shot at the podium because Karoline Leavitt stepped down on her own terms in August, saying she wanted more time with her young children.

But many are getting pushed. 

When Trump assembled his administration, he proudly showcased a formidable lineup of women at the highest levels of American government.

That was the case for former Attorney General Pam Bondi and former Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer.  

'What was meant to be a showcase of administrative discipline has devolved into an exhausting exercise in crisis management,' one White House insider explained to the Daily Mail.

Half of the eight women originally tapped for top Cabinet and administration positions have vanished from their posts. 

First was Noem, who was sacked in March after a pile-up of controversies: a widely derided taxpayer-funded ad campaign starring herself, mounting concerns over management and spending, and fierce scrutiny of her oversight of ICE following the deaths of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

The final straw, sources say, came when she told Congress under oath that Trump had personally signed off on the ads. The president flatly denied it.

Less than a month later, Attorney General Pam Bondi was ousted, after unhappiness with her handling of the Epstein files. Shortly after her departure, she revealed she was undergoing treatment for thyroid cancer.

Chavez-DeRemer stepped down in late April amid a scathing probe. 

It included claims that her husband made inappropriate advances toward female staff, allegations she forced aides to supply alcohol on official trips, and reports of an affair with her bodyguard.

She has denied wrongdoing.  

Then, in May, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced her resignation. 

Publicly, the exit was tied to her husband Abraham's diagnosis with a rare form of bone cancer.

Behind the scenes, it was another story.

'Trump wanted someone who would do his bidding. Gabbard and the president had clashed several times on policy ideas like the war in the Middle East and they both figured this would be the cleanest cut,' a White House insider explained. 

'Trump demands absolute loyalty and expects immediate results. So that creates a meat-grinder environment where work-life balance is non-existent,' one female administration official told the Daily Mail. 'Not only that, but they have to walk the ethics line of being devoted to Trump and also doing the right thing.'

Now the knives are circling Wiles.

Sources say Trump is reportedly privately fuming over weak approval ratings and reports that Wiles' inner circle, including her daughter, have been profiting off high-paying foreign consulting contracts.

'She's burned a lot of people,' one GOP insider warned Politico. 

Trump insists Wiles retains his complete confidence.

But on just two nights before Zacharia's expulsion, his communications director, Steven Cheung boldly predicted that Trump's second press secretary in his second term would be 'remembered as one of the all-time greats.'
