Well I guess it makes sense since that seems to be one of the requirements for the job with him. I mean it started on like day 1 or 2 of his first term when Spicey claimed that the inauguration crowd and global viewing was the largest of any US president. When Trump announced the selection of Katie Zacharia he said that she was an attorney. She was also described as a lawyer with a J.D. After no records in any US states showed that she was a lawyer she was asked where she took the bar exam. Her response? "China" Um. . . that's not a thing for non-Chinese citizens. Now the news has come out that she did take the bar exam here in California but she did not pass. She explained that she was distracted by being engaged and moving to be with her fiance in China and she knew that the results of the exam "were inconsequential". Um okay so you didn't plan on working as a lawyer. Just describe yourself as someone with a degree in law rather than a lawyer or attorney. It never ends with this administration.

Anthony Scaramucci said she may not even make it longer than he did and he was fired after 11 days.

You are correct, no one takes the bar exam in China except Chinese citizens. Lying from day 1 is nuts. You are either a lawyer (and have passed the bar exam) or you're not a lawyer (if you don't) Insanity reigns.

Saying you're a lawyer when you never passed the bar is just a bad look, no matter who does it. Its such an easy thing to check too, so why even say it. She should of just said she has a law degree and moved on.
