She says Trump’s favorite animal is probably an elephant, the symbol of the Republican party. And she said his favorite candy is pink and red Starbursts.

Sanders also got questions about Ronny Jackson’s decision to withdraw from consideration as Veterans Affairs secretary, and why Trump fired ex-FBI Director James Comey.

But she stayed on message, saying Comey “did some things that weren’t really very nice.”

  1. What the ever-loving fuck was that? Lying to KIDS while using them as props now, Sarah?

  2. The one exhibiting infantile tendencies sits in the Oval Office. A true spoiled brat, I’d say!

  3. “Well obviously you’re only 4 years old so shut the fuck up and drink your juice box. The President has made his position very clear that we need a better deal on daycare and that Mexico will be paying for a new baby gate to keep you out of the goddamn briefing room.”

  4. Even in replies to children, she’s making stuff up. SAD!

  5. Huckster Sanders: “Your parents in the Fake News media are all a bunch of liars and globalists. We’re going to arrest them soon.”
