Trump looking to Sarah Huckabee Sanders in tough moments
AP via Yahoo ^ | March 12, 2017 | Catherine Lucey and Ken Thomas

Posted on 03/12/2017 11:45:03 AM PDT by EveningStar

Faced with aggressive on-air questioning about the president's wiretapping claims, Sarah Huckabee Sanders didn't flinch, she went folksy.

Speaking to George Stephanopoulos on "Good Morning America," she pulled out a version of an old line from President Lyndon Johnson: "If the president walked across the Potomac, the media would be reporting that he could not swim."

The 34-year-old spokeswoman for President Donald Trump was schooled in hardscrabble politics — and down-home rhetoric — from a young age by her father, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee. Her way with a zinger — and her unshakable loyalty to an often unpredictable boss — are big reasons why the deputy press secretary is a rising star in Trump's orbit.

In recent weeks, Sanders has taken on a notably more prominent role in selling Trump's agenda, including on television and at White House press briefings. As White House press secretary Sean Spicer's public profile has fluctuated in recent weeks amid criticism of his performance, Sanders has increasingly become a chief defender of Trump in some of his toughest moments.

Number 4....call/write/rinse repeat your congressman and senators. Hound them. Be respectful, no foul language, but hound them. I've contacted my RINO republicans twice in a week and will continue.

Only takes a moment to let’em know what you think. If only a few call...they kinda blow it off. If the lines are snarled..gets their attention.

Disagree on Kelly Anne.

She has been a foot soldier since last August and has been going into the Lion's Den day after day.

She's had more home runs than not and should continue to be part of Trump's team. She's never faced the full onslaught of the Liberal Media and she has helped Trump much more than she has hurt him.

The libs would love to get rid of Kelly Anne. However, the final decision is Trump's and she has been a fearless faithful foot soldier willing to take on the lying liberal media with a smile.

She has decades of research on voting habits and is a phenomenal conservative voice. Will continue to be very impressed by Conway and Bannon. Both have worked so hard for Trump, are extremely loyal and there is NO DOUBT that are on our side.

Meant to add that both Huckabee’s are huge assets for Trump. Wish he cold find a way to also hire Mike Huckabee and continue to give his daughter Sarah exposure before the lying liberal media.

All of Trump’s pics have been on point.

Being a loving parent to 4 or 5 kids and “run” the W.H. she’s above the average women, pure and simple. NO other women in the W.H. match up to he. Her “robotic” points is what’s needed to pacify the Knee-Pad media and no other women there reach to her ankles. Maybe Judge Jeanine!!!

As I clearly stated in my post, I love and respect Conway....and my critique was not personal nor based on her political dedication and knowledge.... but strictly on style.

To put it in the fewest possible words, Kelly's boring, monitone, nasal, rapid-fire, repetitive spiels on TV give me worms.

Honestly, I thought Cohn was awful on FOX Sunday, with Wallace. Surely he will get better. Not all brilliant people can speak well, and not every fine speaker is all that brilliant.

Of course, there are so many expertly articulates around Trump who can speak and chew gum at the same time, that Cohn stuck out as lame in comparison. When he finished his prattle, I didn’t know what he had actually even said. I realized that instead, I was relying on what I knew about what he said. LOL!

I will accept your impressions of Cohn since I missed the initial portion of interview. He is from Golden Sachs. Enuff said. He thinks the FED is doing a very good job! Yes, for the big banks! Like Goldman Sachs!!

Only reason I said he did OK during Wallace interview, is because he seemed to easily wiggle out of most gotcha questions.

Oh, yes. He did wriggle out of that question on the I-refuse-to-resign guy, didn’t he? LOL! A true bean counter. He never looks up from his beans, right? True. :D

Wallace is a total smock and FULL of himself with an EGO as Mount Everest. I simply can’t stand him, or most of his Libtards panels as well!!!

They’re calling it Ryancare because it’s his bill. There is a sort of logic in so doing, wouldn’t you say?
