Sarah Huckabee Sanders to leave WH Press Secretary job by end of month, Trump tweets

[Mister44]

Did a more desirable position like working at the DMV open up?

@anon48584343

$180k a year is pretty good for doing just that.

Not in the heart of DC. Maybe ok if she commutes.

As poor a rendering as the trumpbot is, they did get three things surprisingly right:

• The ill-fitting suit
• The wee tiny hands
• The overall sense of existential dread it inspires

What I find amusing (depending on how you define amusing) is that even if Trump directly dictated the words for WH press secretary Robot Trump to speak, he’d still end up disagreeing with the thing a few days later and probably fire it for being in league with the librul media.

@ficuswhisperer

the lectern in the briefing room is quite literally gathering dust.

That’s not dust, that’s ash.

She doesn’t do anything. Who says that she even shows up 2 days a week?

It’s good money for eating all day … sorry, did I say that out loud?

[dommerdoodle]

I know it feels like forever, but the point I was making was she’s only been there 2 1/2 years. The WH can’t even f%&#ing count.

Basically, this:

Yes, also when people respond to current Trump tweets with Trump’s tweets from previous years that argue the opposite.

[Mister44]

I guess fair point if she doesn’t have to come in. I kinda assumed she did something else around the place, but mayb not.

[anon48584343]

Definitely not.

[Garymon]

I imagined she was running the shredder brigade.

Given that her last press briefing was in January, she’s not even trying to keep up appearances.

She’s been doing Fox News instead. I wonder if they’ve offered her a position. I wonder if her effect on Fox’s ratings is negative, and that’s why the administration wants her gone.

The only thing I don’t wonder is: “Are they firing her because that’s the best thing for the American public?” I’m assuming the answer to that one is a firm “no.”

[anon48584343]

I just watched her ‘going away’ party. Ugggh.

The horror.
The horror.
The horror.

That’s a quote from “The Heart of Sanders”, right?

[anon61833566]

Definitely both

Yep

Actually I remember reading that the Press Secretary was one of the more demanding jobs in the White House and that the average length of stay was about 2 1/2 years. To be able to keep up that level of obfuscation and prevarication for that long takes a tremendous toll. Or at least I hope it does.

[anon59592690]

That’s why you should always stay on the boat.
Unless it’s the USS John McCain, in which case you’re probably best off looking out for yourself…
