Will she be summoned through a magic mirror, or will she appear through the surface of her cauldron?
If the press had an ounce of integrity, every single question would be some form of “Sarah, why did you and the President lie repeatedly to us about the President’s involvement in the hush-money payments?”
If there’s ever a day when my attitude toward Ms. Huckabee Sanders approached something resembling ‘pity’ far off on the distant horizon, today is that day.
But you know what they say about lying with dogs and waking up with fleas. Bad choices lead to bad consequences.
If your best response is “the president has not be charged with a crime” then you know you’re screwed. She’s already lying about what happened, and ignoring all the times that she and Trump said they knew nothing about these payments…and it’s only going to get worse.
Serves them right.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders looks puffy and as though she’s suffering from sleep loss.
about a minute with 15 lies and 12 deflections in I guarantee any vestiges of pity will evaporate replaced by abject disgust
