White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders minimized reports that federal prosecutors from the Southern District of New York subpoenaed President Trump’s inaugural committee on Monday, saying the news has “nothing to do with the White House.”

“I’m reading the same reports as you this morning, and gathering that information,” Sanders told CNN Tuesday. “What I do know at this point, this has nothing to do with the White House and for anything specific or further, I’d refer you back to the inaugural committee.”

    No, Sarah, it’s true. You are a idiot.

  3. The Trump Inaugural committee has nothing to do with Donald Trump. He didn’t know those people. He barely met them. They may have brought coffee once or twice.

    Gawd’s Sake, Sarah, don’t you have a new lie? Do we have to keep listening to the same old ones?

    How much money went into the pockets of various tRumps… I am sure the white house got none of it… so in some ways it does have nothing to do with the white house… it has everything to do with the utter corruption of the entire tRump administration.

  5. Donnie, Donnie, Donnie.

    Everything (criminal) is about you…
