Michelle Wolf on Sarah Huckabee Sanders at The 2018 White House correspondents dinner:
I have to say Im a little star-struck. I love you as Aunt Lydia in The Handmaids Tale. Mike Pence, if you havent seen it, you would love it.
Every time Sarah steps up to the podium, I get excited, because Im not really sure what were going to get. You know, a press briefing, a bunch of lies or divided into softball teams. Its shirts and skins, and this time dont be such a little bitch, Jim Acosta!
I actually really like Sarah. I think shes very resourceful. She burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smoky eye. Like maybe shes born with it, maybe its lies. Its probably lies.
And Im never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders, you know? Is it Sarah Sanders, is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders, is it Cousin Huckabee, is it Auntie Huckabee Sanders? Whats Uncle Tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? Oh, I know. Aunt Coulter.

(51,632 posts)None of them felt sorry for her today. They said that she goes out and lies for the moron and it is her choice and she is paid well. In fact, she is probably going to get called by Mueller as a witness like everyone else who has daily contact with the fake prez. If he changes his story three times a day and tells them the various versions and they go out and tell these lies than they are complicit in these lies. There is no credibility anymore from the W House and everyone can see that.

"You guys are obsessed with Trump,""Did you use to date him? You pretend like you hate him, but I think you love him."
"What no one in this room wants to admit is Trump helped all of you," "He couldn't sell steaks, vodka, water, college, ties or Eric. [But] he has helped you sell your papers, books, and TV. You created this monster, and now you're profiting off of him."
And then the killer...she reminded them that Flint Mich. still doesn't have safe drinking water. A reminder that maybe this was the sort of story they should be covering instead of all-trump all-the-time.
