Press Secretary Sarah Sanders to Leave the White House
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders is leaving the White House, President Trump tweeted on Thursday.

As press secretary, Sanders was known for frequent clashes with frustrated reporters who often struggled to get answers to questions about the president's thinking on issues ranging from presidential pardoning authority to the role of the press. She was often called upon to defend shifting and conflicting statements from Trump, and as a result, often faced questions about her own credibility.

Since they no longer hold press briefings, she has no one to lie to, just negating her position. The saddest part is watching the hypocritical people that talk about freedom, but wholeheartedly support the government not informing the public. But much like talk of morality, it is yet another thing we no longer have to bother hearing complaints about from conservatives.

I can't say that I'm sorry to see her leave, but in all fairness, she delivered Trump's lies with as great enthusiasm as Trump does.

Big thanks to Sarah Sanders for her fine service as press secretary. She served about as long as the typical press secretary serves, regardless of who is the president.

With the previous secretary, the churlishness of certain members of the press corps had some effect. With her, it did not. She was always professional and took care to be accurate and thorough with her responses. Most press secretaries have not done as well.

The Trump haters in the press corps saw pummeling Sanders as the way to get at him from the minute she first stepped to the lectern, but she weathered everything they could think up--about her choice of clothing, hair style, children, and all the other sexist insults they threw at her, but she stood her ground with dignity. Good work Sarah, we will miss you.

When did that happen?

Does anyone think she will write a book??? I hope so. I would read it. I would hope she would explain why she lied so much to protect someone who would toss her under the bus for the most tiny reason.

According to the Mueller Report she was not always accurate and said things in anger.
I fully expect to see her running for a position in the state government and even the presidency in a few years.

For those of us who don't tweet?

...the press picks up his tweets.
(since he made it clear from day one his twitter would be an official source of the White House).

She did an excellent job, and truth be told, nobody cares what the Trump haters think.
I have a surge-protector on my Irony meter for just such instances!

This is going to be interesting because it would leave the White House without either a communications director or press secretary.

I kinda doubt that she has those goals in mind, but if she does, then she does.

According to the Mueller Report she was not always accurate and said things in anger.

This is not just Mueller's opinion. Mueller quotes Sanders admitting she was inaccurate. Her statement to reporters about the FBI “was not founded on anything”.
