Sarah Huckabee Sanders Declares Both Kavanaugh and Ford 'Victims at the Hands of Democrats'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

In her first press briefing since the allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh emerged, Sarah Huckabee Sanders said both Christine Blasey Ford and Kavanaugh are “victims at the hands of the Democrats.” The briefing took place one day after a rally at which President Trump mocked Ford for not remembering details of her sexual assault, allegedly at the hands of Kavanaugh.

Three critical Kavanaugh swing votes expressed disappointment in the president’s remarks, decrying them as “kind of appalling” (Sen. Jeff Flake, R-AZ), “wholly inappropriate” (Sen. Lisa Murkowski R-AK) and “just plain wrong” (Sen. Susan Collins R-ME).

Sanders, though, refused to walk back the president’s comments, choosing instead to deploy what appeared to be the agreed-upon talking points:


1. Everything Trump said was, on its face, true. (“The president was stating the facts,” Sanders said.)
2. Democrats have said worse. (“Nobody wants to hear [Bill Clinton’s] accusers voices be heard. But you’re certainly happy to hear all the others.”)
