Sarah Sanders' dishonest defense of Trump and his assault on the free press reaches a new low
NBC "News" ^ | August 3, 2018 | by Matt Simon

$180,000.

That’s how much Sarah Sanders earns a year as White House Press Secretary. She joins 23 other White House employees in that top salary bracket.

That means this is also how much she is paid to spread lies to the American people and peddle conspiracy theories on behalf of the president of the United States of America.

Sanders has had her current job for a little over a year. But it’s become increasingly clear that there are very few limits to what she will do when it comes to making excuses for her boss. Being the press secretary is a difficult job in any administration, but Sanders continues to lower the bar when it comes to falsehoods and obfuscation, in the process undermining the Bill of Rights not to mention the integrity of the Trump White House.

Simply put, Sanders is reaching a point of no return; in fact, she may have already passed it. The question she needs to ask herself is $180,000 a year worth the damage she is doing to herself, the free press, the institution of the presidency and ultimately, the country at large.

I’m thinking there is an undercurrent of fear among the media.

>>> typical democrat ploy; accuse the opponent of doing what they have already been doing and hope like hell the American people are too stupid to see the truth <<<

Jonathan Gruber - Democrats often rely on “the stupidity of the American voter”. So does CNN, MSNBC, NYT, LAT, ABC, CBS, and NBC.

I think it was ABC that altered the truck video. NBC altered the Trayvon Martin audio. Both journalistic malpractice.

The People are onto them! The more they talk, the more they reveal, the more People join the Trump Revolution! KEEP TALKING!

It's hard to believe they think talking is going to mask the fact WE CAN SEE THEM contriving accusations, presenting opinion as fact, and "marketing" their deceits.

The studied obtusity of Jim Acosta crediting Trump with whipping people up into a frenzy rather than HIS OWN professional depravity is breathtaking.

The only POS’s that are put out lies and deceit are people like you Kurt Bardella. So Sarah makes $180,000 a year. How much are you making @$$hole.

The truth is, you despicable idiots in the Maniacal Nonsense Media, can’t HANDLE THE TRUTH, so all you do is follow the dictates of you masters the DNC and do what you do best: LIE, LIE, LIE!!!

“That means this is also how much she is paid to spread lies to the American people and peddle conspiracy theories on behalf of the president of the United States of America.”

If facts that are both self evident and proven can be considered “conspiracy theories”, what would you call the combination of fraud, fabrication, misleading omissions, and outright lies that the MSM has put forth since the concerted effort to undermine the American electoral system was initiated by the Democrats and the leftist media? Nothing But Crap is right!

Comcast is an American enemy that is far more dangerous than Iran or Russia or North Korea.

Americans should destroy comcast. Comcast is a malignant cancer.

I’ll be happy to kick both of them.
In the teeth and groin.

Does that work?

$180,000...That’s how much Sarah Sanders earns a year as White House Press Secretary.

Considering the abuse she takes day after day from the MSM vermin, I'd say she deserved an extra 80K for "combat pay" on top of her current salary.

NBC is very familiar with reaching new lows.
