Sarah Sanders lies to "clarify" Trump's lies and to rationalize his actins, helping Trump supporters fool themselves.
Sarah Sanders is a common "Christian" fake, fake Christian, a hypocrite "maximus," giving Christianity a huge step backwards. She knows no morals or ethics.
God never existed in Sarah Sanders.
"Sarah Sanders: Trump hasn't ‘at any point’ done anything but ‘condemn violence against journalists'"
By Tal Axelrod - 02/22/19 01:00 PM EST
"White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Friday that President Trump has only ever condemned violence against the media, distancing him from a recently arrested Coast Guard lieutenant’s plans to kill several high-profile Democrats and media personalities.
“I certainly don’t think that the president has at any point done anything but condemn violence against journalists or anyone else. In fact, every single time something like this happens, the president is typically one of the first people to condemn the violence and the media is the first people to blame the president,” Sanders said Friday when asked if the president had any intention of toning down his criticism of the media."
"Bull Shit Sarah," (BSS for short), that's her name now. "Bull Shit Sarah." President Trump's personal George Goebbels.
"One video refutes Sarah Sanders’s claim that Trump has never encouraged violence"
Trump in fact has a long history of encouraging violence.

"In one of the most dramatic examples, Trump literally celebrated a lawmaker for assaulting a reporter. The moment is memorable for its egregiousness, even by Trump-era standards.
At a political rally last October, Trump boosted Rep. Greg Gianforte (R-MT) for assaulting Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs while Jacobs attempted to interview him in 2017."
"Defending Trump, Sanders lies about his record on promoting violence"
By Steve Benen 02/22/19 10:11 AM
"Just four months after a radicalized Donald Trump supporter targeted several perceived White House foes with mail bombs, Americans learned of a suspected terrorist plot this week, planned by a Coast Guard lieutenant, who also planned to kill prominent journalists and Democratic officials.
To date, the president has not yet addressed the plot or the arrest, though he has published tweets condemning journalists as “the enemy of the people.” It led to an interesting exchange this morning between a reporter and White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
REPORTER: A white nationalist, he was planning a plot against Democrats [and] against journalists. The president has tweeted the journalists and the media are ‘the enemy of the people.’ Is there any plan for the president to maybe tone down his rhetoric? Do you think this contributes to these kinds of extremists getting these ideas?
SANDERS: I certainly don’t think that the president, at any point, has done anything but condemn violence – against journalists or anyone else. In fact, every single time something like this happens, the president is typically one of the first people to condemn the violence, and the media is the first people to blame the president.
Sometimes, it seems as if Sarah Huckabee Sanders hasn’t even met Donald Trump.
If her comments this morning sound at all familiar, it’s because this morning wasn’t the first time. In June 2017, after Sanders argued that the president has never “promoted or encouraged violence,” the Washington Post noted that the claim was “laughable,” adding, “Even if you don’t believe Trump has technically incited violence (which he has been sued for), he clearly nodded toward violence at his campaign rallies. Sometimes it was veiled; other times it was unmistakable. Sometimes he was talking about self-defense, but it was clear he was advocating for a ‘form of violence.’”
For the president’s chief spokesperson to repeat the claim adds insult to injury. She’s obviously and demonstrably wrong, but just as importantly, Sanders really ought to know better.
As regular readers may recall, it was just four months ago when Trump publicly celebrated a Republican congressman for his unprovoked violence toward a journalist."
Sarah is paid to lie for Trump, so she lies, and she is very good at lying.
I can almost live with lies by Trump surrogates like Sanders. The boldness of the lies is very disconcerting and scary.
But the tribalism of Trump supporters, his Base, among my friends is a serious concern to me, and should worry anyone that thought America was a country of values.
My friend is a rocket scientist, really, a graduate of the NASA astronaut program, almost . . .
I will share another email from my Trump supporting friend to show you how smart people can be hard headed, if not outright dumb.
I insert my commentary at appropriate points in another one of his emails. I tried to have a tit-for-tat reasonable discussion with him, but he caved, and quit.
I'll get back with him later, at a future date, to explain Socialism to him. Yes, I know he knows the dictionary definition, but that is not the problem. The problem is how he scare mongers the word "Socialism" for no reasonably good purpose other than make Dems look bad, and get the discussion off track.
I am amazed, surprised because a reasonable dialogue never followed my responses to each of my friend's Trump supporter talking points.
I got one agreement on crime by illegal immigrants being less than what Trumps says, I think . . .
I got an agreement that illegal immigrants commit less crime than what Trump says! Hurray!
I got frustrated by my friend ignoring my points so we could look at what I started calling "the whole story." My friend was leaving out enough of the facts to make his responses half right. I eventually called his argument sources InfoWars, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, and Anne Coulter. My friend did not like those references, I think. I think he felt insulted.
I admit these sources are an insult. These are bad places to get info. BUT, my friend told me (admitted? confessed?) to me in an email that Fox News was the ONLY objective source for news. Wow!
So my friend agreed that crime statistics for illegal immigrants show they commit less crime than Trumps says. Much of what my friend gave me was easily refuted and debunked, or I was able to make more complete, and more favorable to a critique of Trump, by adding better and more meaningful facts.
When done I had a more objective assessment of Trump ideas, and thus, we should have been able to see some flaws..
My friend did not react to anything I provided him, so I think he did not read what I gave him. It was like he was afraid to know more about Trump's behavior, and how he was a kleptocrat, a liar, and bad for our country internationally in the long run.
My friend is a stone cold Trump supporter. My friend is probably a multi-millionaire, a rich man in a rich family. I think having money has colored his judgement, but I could be wrong. I hope I am wrong.
I think President Trump probably could shoot one of his supporters on Fifth Avenue and even the dead supporter would vote for him (Maybe not the dead one? lol!)!
Here's the email I will take apart and break down:
"Frank,
You’re not off-putting to me, I’m just afraid you’re too biased against Trump. [My facts make me biased? I used the Washington Post a lot. Maybe THAT makes me biased? I worked a lot of other sources into my responses to avoid bias because I not want to be biased. I used TV videos a lot, and none of those were biased. Videos are moving reality - pictures of reality. When Trump said he admired the politician who body slammed a reporter, I saw it, did not read it. When Trump told the world he believed Putin did not hack our 2016 election in Helsinki, I saw it, did not read it. When Trump disagreed with all his national security advisors, I saw it, did not read it.] I enjoy the discussion when I can engage. [I am not sure he enjoyed it at the end.] Just very busy. You are certainly concerned with our national debt…[Experts say the fast growing deficit can hurt us if interest rates go up. The GOP tax cut of ~$1.5T is NOT paying for itself. Revenues are falling.] did you voice your concern when Obama accumulated more debt than all other Presidents combined? What did we get for the $10 Trillion? I actually asked several senior Democratic staffers at a PSC breakfast and they had NO answer! In fact, they were embarrassed.
Trump’s actions on the economy are the same as Reagan and Kennedy which generated record revenues over time because of the job creation that occurred. The same is true today [No, revenues are NOT keeping up and the deficit grew 17% in one year! If revenues are not 17% of GDP, our deficit grows!] , we are collecting more tax revenue than ever (much more than under Obama) [The tax revenues are NOT keeping up, and businesses are buying back their stock with their portion of the tax cut. Businesses are not investing in capital and raising wages as expected and promised.] so we don’t have a tax revenue problem…we have a spending problem. The only way to tackle that is for the government to limit entitlements [So the poor caused the problem? The people who get entitlements are the problem? THAT thinking is simply unbelievably cruel! Suggesting using the poor to solve our spending problem is wrong minded, it is sick, sad, and and evil.] and they don’t have the will to do so [I wonder why?]. Attacking the discretionary budget (like Defense) is absurd [No, cutting the defense budget makes perfect sense - DoD wastes too much already.] since national security is the number one responsibility of the Federal government (source: US Constitution)
You are right…[Here is the only time, the only point, my friend said "You are right." However, I am not sure what I was right about. lol!] the facts on the border are clear…according to the DOJ report released in December 2017:
“Among the 37,557 confirmed aliens [This is an official report, but I don't get this quote. What is this?], 35,334 people (94 percent) [Percentages lie.] were unlawfully present ["Present"]. These numbers include a 92 percent unlawful rate among 24,476 confirmed aliens in BOP custody and a 97 percent unlawful rate among 13,081 confirmed aliens in USMS custody. [What do these numbers mean? Nothing.] This report does not include data on the foreign-born or alien populations in state prisons and local jails because state and local facilities do not routinely provide DHS or DOJ with comprehensive information about their inmates and detainees—which account for approximately 90 percent of the total U.S. incarcerated population.”
But you’re missing the more important point…a fundamental principle of our nation is the rule of law [Ya, rule of law selectively applied against people of color.] …why are we allowing anyone to come into the country illegally? [How do you distinguish between Amendment 14 right to asylum and citizenship if born here, people awaiting trial for asylum after being released awaiting trial (most come back for the trial contrary to Fox News lies about the return to trials.), and immigrants who overstay their Visas coming in by aircraft?] We should be using all the resources we can afford to prevent that [No, we should be passing legislation.]. In this age of asymmetric warfare, we must know as much as we can about those coming across our borders. A wall/barrier/fence is critical to control the flow into ports of entry [The Wall, however, is not our best defense, for sure. Legislation is our best defense. People are coming across the border no matter how much Wall we put up. Israel's, Egypt's, and Spain's Walls are not our Wall, their situations are not our situation.] . When the President visited the border last week in Texas, the local CBP chief indicated that they had stopped more than 130 people attempting to cross the border that day that were not from Central America and in fact included a group from the Middle East. [BUT THE PEOPLE OF EL PASO DO NOT WANT THE WALL! Stop BS-ing me/us!] It only took 19 individuals to wreak the havoc of 9/11. [So? The terrorists used aircraft! The 19 you speak of flew in! The 19 you speak of wreaked havoc because George Bush did not take the threat seriously when briefed by his intel experts. President Trump doe snot take his intel briefings seriously either. Same result possible, and, as noted, will have nothing to do with illegal immigrants who after a while become illegal after allowed across our border thru ports of entry. We do not have 11,000,000 illegal immigrants here based on crossing the desert zones along the CA, AZ, NM, and TX borders! The Wall is not our emergency!]
The Democrats did vote for border security as you say…including hundreds of miles of barriers…so now what changed? [Nothing changed after the Dems voted and the GOP killed the border security bill!] One reason [Dog Whistle. Silly. The response is "No, Trump lies about the condition of the border crossings. Lies are unacceptable and have nothing to do with hating Trump. We hate the lie, not the liar."] …they hate Trump as you appear to do also [Again, wrong, and very weak, in fact. If your fall back, your "go to" response is we hate Trump, you have no argument, you have given up, you have no objective fact-based response.] . He won legitimately in 2016 by a convincing electoral vote [Key word, "electoral" vote, losing the popular vote by over 3,000,000 votes.]. He out campaigned and worked harder than Hilary [OK, so? Is that license to govern in a stupid manner, tweeting and lying ever day?]. The Democrats and the left can’t face that fact [If Trump was doing sustainable good things, we'd all be happy. Trump has committed crimes, fraud, emoluments, obstructing justice, campaign finance, use of Russia assistance, so the rule of law should put him in jail as soon as he leaves office. When all is said and done you will have supported a virtual crime boss.]. While President Trump’s style is certainly irritating at times…his actions are right on the mark. The wall was not a figment of his imagination…it came from a real threat that an overwhelming majority of Americans see (~70-80%) [This is a lie, or at best a misread of the polls. Americans in the majority do not support the Wall.]. They’ve seen the effects of illegal immigration on our communities (MS-13 [Crime and murder exist in all our major cities, and MS-13 is a tiny percentage of the total.] and other gangs [Ya, right wing domestic extremists], rising violent crime rates [Misuse of facts, at best, lies at worst, and lacking details that would prove illegal immigrants have nothing to do with high crime rates.], school and hospital impacts, increased “third world” diseases, etc.). I have personally experienced this in our area. [One of examples are meaningless.]
As far as our foreign policy and trade is concerned, Trump is absolutely doing the right thing and getting results. Remember I was the US rep to three NATO boards (AGS, ACCS and AWACS) for two years. His actions vis-à-vis NATO are exactly what we needed [No, Trump used the worst possible management approach, Theory X. Trump's demanding NATO countries to pay their "bill" was a flat out misunderstanding of the "goal." Trump got nasty for not purpose. There were MUCH better ways to ask NATO to step up than shredding their character.]. I am very close to several senior NSC staffers now and I can tell you that the President is manipulating our allies exactly the way he should…he never intended to pull out of NATO but he wanted them to believe he would to get them to contribute more [That Trump intent did not come thru as France's Macron has floated the idea of a European Army. I guess Macron did not get the Trump memo. The truth is Trump sees no reason to be a NATO member]. No President since NATO was founded has been able to do that…he will. HE IS A BUSINESSMAN [A 6 time bankrupt businessman who used millions from his daddy.] …which is exactly what this country has needed for a long time [I know a guy from Utah who fills that bill - Mitt Romney. Mitt never went bankrupt.]. By the way, one senior staffer told me that he has the Chinese befuddled [That senior staffer is a joke. China will eat our lunch in the "negotiations." China can wait out Trump. Watch as time rolls on. The tariffs will not help Trump. We may fix some issues with intellectual property, but we will not improve our situation with China. The balance of trade will get worse, not better under Trump.] and is ruining their national strategy to dominate the US by 2030 [Not likely. China will dominate, even if it takes to 2031. lol!] which started in the mid-90s.
Trump is no racist…he is a realist. [This is a joke! I only have to list Trump's words, "shit hole" countries PAIRED with he wants white Norwegians; Trump is a racist, clear and certain, or, at best, "a-racist," meaning he can hate Muslims and Mexicans as long as it benefits him. Trump is a racist as necessary to put money in his pocket. He will put up his stable of blacks, and female employees as tokens. That only shows he is clever and deceitful, and aware.
That’s all I have time for…
Cheers, "
