Sarah Huckabee Sanders: Hillary Clinton "Propping up Book Sales With False and Reckless Attacks"

🖕🏼



The White House press secretary said she's "not sure" if Donald Trump will read Clinton's book.

When a White House reporter asked press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders about Hillary Clinton's new book in a briefing on Tuesday afternoon, she was prepared.

"I think it's sad that after Hillary Clinton ran one of the most negative campaigns in history and lost, the last chapter of her public life is going to be defined by propping up book sales with false and reckless attacks," Sanders said, looking down at her notes while speaking.

Sanders said she is "not sure" if Donald Trump will read the book, What Happened, which was released Tuesday and is being promoted heavily by Clinton in appearances on television and book signings, including one in New York City that attracted big crowds. (On Wednesday, Clinton is scheduled to discuss the book on both Today and The View.)

"I would that think that he’s pretty well versed on what happened, and I think it’s pretty clear to all of America," Sanders said, making a dig at the title of the book.

There aren't enough words to describe her awfulness. She is another fake zealot who speaks and acts in the exact opposite way her savior lived his life. I pity her for the hate that lives in her heart.

1) Too many big words that he doesn't know the meaning of.
2) The book has more than one page so that exceeds his attention span.

One of the most negative campaigns???? If she clutches those pearls any harder she'll leave marks.

I bet Lyin' Ted, Little Marco, Low Energy Jeb, Cryin' Chuck, and the entire press corps sitting in front of her have something to say about that.

of others, Sarah has only lied and tried to cover for a lying Trump. I don't think I will agree with her on this or any other subject. Keep on keeping on Hillary we are proud of you.

that the Orange Toxin feels threatened enough by the book to comment on it via his lying spokeswoman.

Hillary probably used multi-syllable words and complex phrases. Many sentences were probably longer than a twitter entry.

Most likely he will wait until Bannon reads it and tells him about it.

are doing a pretty good job of expressing the disgust and dismay of her comments, but really, there are NO words that can truly do justice to the absurdity of her comments!
