White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders over the past several months has made multiple false statements about President Donald Trumps knowledge of whether attorney Michael Cohen paid off adult film star Stormy Daniels.
In the wake of Rudy Giulianis bombshell admission that Trump personally reimbursed Cohen for the $131,000 payout to Daniels, reporters on Thursday asked Sanders why she hadnt told the truth about the deal.
Sanders, however, flatly refused to answer any questions.

Phillip then quoted Sanders during a press briefing in March in which she said that Trump had absolutely no knowledge of Cohens payments to Daniels.

(6,473 posts)so what Michael Cohen considered personal services payments- the Trump team will now claim were reimbursements for Stormy's payoffs. That's a slippery slope though if the checks don't match up. Once you start telling lies you have to lie even more. IRS will be interested if that was INCOME to Cohen though rather than reimbursement.

Sanders said this in March: "I've had conversations with the president about this. There was no knowledge of any payments from the president and he's denied all of these allegations."

(22,663 posts)She flatly denies he said things everyone knows he has said. I don't think we need to give Sanders the benefit of the doubt on this one. Her record of lying has been clear from her first day on the job.

(21,856 posts)because they were lied to, and deceived by our current liar-in-chief. When will it stop, this constant spew of toxic lies, gross deception, and serious missteps?
It doesn't surprise me that a lot of RUMP voters are white nationalists, and the like (or worse), who voted for RUMP and his gang of trash collectors, regardless of their actual qualifications in running anything. Bullies, all of them!
We need to kick them in the ass and get them out of office, and get someone in there and in Congress who knows how to work hard and do their job instead of going out and grabbing pu**y and then sticking us w/ a bill for services rendered. If these guys want to party, fine, but do on your own dime and time. This is fraud, period (paying off Stormy D. and hiding this from the voters (and, who else is out there?)).
Doesn't seem like anything else is being done 'for the country' but instead, everyone of RUMP's cronies are running around like chickens without their heads on, defending this POS/RUMP, from basically, everybody!!
Come on Mueller, things have been too quiet on your end...send a signal to the American people that Justice is still there...

gives her too much credit. She's a useful idiot for Dump. Nothing more.
As far as why she works there, she obviously comes from a known family that supports Dump and given her character, or lack thereof, that's been revealed to the world, I don't know how many options she'd have if she left.
I can't imagine anyone would hire a mean, nasty, glowering, scowling and totally dishonest person for any job.

(3,335 posts)She's making $180,000 for standing up there each day making shit up as she goes along. She's got an office in the WH and I'm sure the folks back in Arkansas are envious that she's a celebrity. She attended Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Arkansas so I'm guessing she's probably not a Rhode Scholar. She gets to travel around the world to places she'd never have gone otherwise, and the media hangs on her every word. It's a good gig for anyone, if you can get it; but my guess is that it's the best job she could have ever hoped for, and they would have to drag her out of the WH cause she ain't going nowhere on her own.

(3,557 posts)I read very liberal leaning news feeds and this forum, so my news is a little biased, but did Obama have any sorts of scandals comparable to trump?
I cant even begin to remember anything like this level of dysfunction of a presidential administration in my lifetime (FWIW, I was born in 1980). Maybe Nixon topped it, but that was a full decade earlier than I was alive.
