Sarah Sanders posts New York Times' phone number -- and tells people to ask them to ID 'loser' op-ed

https://www.rawstory.com/2018/09/sarah-sanders-posts-new-york-times-phone-number-tells-people-ask-id-gutless-op-ed-writer/

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Thursday encouraged her Twitter followers to call the opinion desk of the New York Times to ask them to identify the “gutless loser” who wrote a scathing editorial about President Donald Trump.

In a statement posted on her Twitter account, Sanders said she was tired of fielding questions about the identity of the anonymous Trump administration official who wrote an editorial arguing that Trump was unfit for office.

“If you want to know who this gutless loser is, call the opinion desk of the failing NYT,” Sanders wrote, before posting the phone number. “They are the only ones complicit in this deceitful act. We stand united together and fully support our President Donald J. Trump.”

Sanders also said that questions about the author’s identification were “recklessly tarnishing the reputation of thousands of great Americans who proudly serve our country and President Trump.”

The anger is masking fear...of jail.

She and Shitler are marching their free press hating and violent psychopath dogs directly onto one newspaper...wow.

I guess they think this is the time to send in the hounds, all these years of conditioning the dogs is for now.

Be safe, NYT, we love you.

It's a deliberate push to put NYT between a rock and a hard place: announce the author and lose credibility or withhold the name and appear like they are making it up.

Her actions make me sick. The NYT will be fielding many death threats today thanks to that horrendous woman.

Somebody should tell TrumPutin that Obama wrote the article.

(Telling him Hillary wrote it would unhinge him more, but he might get away with retaliation against her. She's done enough.).

And criticizing Trump does in NO way recklessly tarnish my reputation.

My service and my sacrifice for this country have nothing to do with a bone spur coward like Trump. Traitor Trump serves no one but himself. His iddy bitty bone spurs somehow prevented him from fighting for our country. So him being restrained, ignored and marginalized serves us all.

Suck it Traitor Trump. The NYT never colluded with little Putin like you did.

If you are in the West Wing, you best act like you are extra outraged so no one points the finger at you. Go Sarah. Root out that heretic. Burn the witch. Pee your pants on the Oval Office rug.
