1. She belongs in prison with the rest of the traitors. Something must be done and soon

or major PROBLEMS will result.

I wont listen to her anymore, after this that you showed here, she is a traitor and my life and my family's life is in danger from her.

[dalton99a]

2. She is a goddamn traitor.

[Eliot Rosewater]

7. It is funny, actually. I have been on record for ten years or more

calling the republican party traitors, terrorists, murderers and of course racists.

In comparison to non republicans they have not ALWAYS been (anymore than all non minorities in American history, cant say the W word here), but for the past 30 or so years, since Nixon, longer than 30, they are anti American.

It is just that rump and team have racketed up the hate, racism and treason.

We cant survive this if half the country STILL doesnt think they need to vote, by the way.

[unblock]

22. hmm, non-minorities starting with 'w'...

ooh! got it!

"women!"

[Eliot Rosewater]

29. Oh, no I meant "white", women are minorities. for sure

[unblock]

31. I know what you meant ;)

I was just trying to be funny.

And women are not a minority, as there are more women than men.

They are *treated* like minorities.

When talking about oppressed or disadvantaged groups, one often uses the phrase "woman and minorities".

[Eliot Rosewater]

33. OK, yeah. I told this con on another board about how Mike Pence

wants to torture gay folks and keep women in the kitchen and kill some in back alleys, he laughed at me as if what i said was entirely absurd.

I then linked proof of each accusation, from Pence's own mouth in one way or another but each item was argued with as if it didnt occur.

Brainwashed.

[Ponietz]

13. +1

Slanders and Loser, Inc., are fomenting violence.

[lunasun]

3. Thanks was wondering what was said... no cable and i am outside of the home most of the time so I

appreciate your posting
I see she never denies the WH sees the press as the enemy of the people......

[demmiblue]

5. YW!

[colorado_ufo]

16. Quite the opposite.

She said that the president has made his position clear, and that she speaks for the president.

[onit2day]

34. What's ironic is the huge role the press played in getting him elected

"Not good for the country but great for CBS." FOX will get it soon as the Trump supporting deplorables they created will one day turn on them and this certainly includes Sanders who deserves her reviews. btw...reporters have no influence over comedians. Sanders is a proven liar which is why she got the job. Everything she says is twisted. 1st thing a would be dictator does is bash the press and treat them as "fake news" which is why in they are the fourth estate by our own constitution.. Remember these fascist sociopaths are devoid of empathy. You dying is like ordering breakfast...they each have about the same importance to them. I hate violence but I hate bullies even more.

[demmiblue]

4. Another angle (just because it is so... wow):

[greatauntoftriplets]

8. Yup. I watched it live.

[onit2day]

36. As far as her claim of having to have SS escort I've got one thing to say

"People should not be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people."

[PearliePoo2]

6. They should quit covering the hate-filled rallies. Just stop.

BLOTUS gets OFF on this. He loves it when his lathered-up mob chants "CNN SUCKS".

He gets this smug look on his face and his jaw juts out. He's one sick, twisted fuck. I can hardly wait to see him go down.

[Fritz Walter]

35. They're hungry for the ratings

After giving his campaign unquestioning coverage, we now have a handful of newsies that are deciding to challenge this sociopath that they helped put in office.

If they really want to show us that they’ve grown a spine, they should not only black-out his rallies, but also devote extensive air time to the real impact of disastrous policies and to the growing resistance. Show the faces of those whose lives have been nearly destroyed by his hate, greed, sloth, and other vices played out in national policies. Show us Puerto Rico. Show us the families torn apart at the borders. Show us the people who are fighting back, on the streets and in Congress.

Then they might regain some credibility. And the ratings will follow.

[True Blue American]

39. Sarah is as sick as Trump.

She looks like a Whiney 5 year old pulling a tirade just like her boss!

Thank Jim Acosta for standing up to her petty tirades. He is a true Journalist!

[brush]

9. What a supreme, a-hole, trump sycophant. I'll be so glad when she gets her comeuppance.

[BSdetect]

10. Looks like she's reading talking points.

[Duppers]

12. Yes, as if she was expecting such a question.

Poor poor mistreated Sarah.

[C_U_L8R]

26. I noticed that too

Seems like she was planning this. Which makes it even more abhorrent

[DangerousRhythm]

45. Exactly what I noticed.

She already had this answer prepared

[CrispyQ]

11. LOL. She brought up the smokey eye.

I still don't see how saying someone has the perfect smokey eye is an insult. She is grasping at straws with her "both-sideism" bullshit.

[kentuck]

14. Wow!

[smirkymonkey]

15. Kicking for later viewing!

[Bernardo de La Paz]

17. Five journalists dead in Annapolis. . . . .nt

[oberliner]

18. Who cares what SHS herself thinks?

Her job is to say what DT thinks - and we know that he thinks this.

So is the goal here to get SHS to contradict DT? Obviously, she's not going to do that.

I don't see the point.

We should focus on the actual news coming out of this press conference - like how there are all these active election hacking attempts going on as we speak all over the country.

[Chemisse]

42. That is true. She would be in hot water if she contradicted Dear Leader.

She has sold her soul and doesn't seem to understand why she is not liked or respected when she defends the indefensible.

[HipChick]

19. I with Jim..

except I could not care less about how she felt about the WHCD or Diner...children are in cages and being drugged...separated from their parents, and I'm supposed to give a fuck about how she feels?

[Chemisse]

43. Yeah the 'poor me' act is ludicrous. n/t

[George II]

20. I have words for that woman that would get me in a LOT of trouble here.

[ffr]

21. You heard it folks. WE ARE THE ENEMY and they are at war with everyone else.

So be it.

[elmac]

24. the fascists have declaired war on us for years

and escalated it by siding with putins cyber war.

[ffr]

25. But for the President's spokesperson to not deny it. Never in my lifetime

nor any any history chapter have I read the president at war with the people and the free press.

The only push new is for Fox to car the marching orders and we're at civil war II.

[elmac]

37. he can get away with this because of all the tRumpsters are begging for a fight,

someone to blame. Hitler did the very same thing and it won't be long before we have a night of the long knives right here in the US.

[displacedtexan]

23. The question to ask is, "Do you and Pres. Trump agree with Richard Nixon...

...that the press is the enemy of the people?"

[LandOfHopeAndDreams]

27. Did Someone Pass Gas?

No, just SHS giving her usual briefing.

[stopbush]

28. Cowardly shithead, she.

[uponit7771]

30. She sounded butt hurt in regards to the media

[Marie Marie]

32. SHS - Just another loser whose ego does not match her assets.

[Still In Wisconsin]

38. Sarah Huckabee Sanders is fucking pond scum.

I thought I disliked Ari Shapiro. I thought I disliked Sean Spicer. But I swear, I hate Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Just absolutely hate that piece of filth.

[Leith]

40. SHS Is a Whiny Such-and-Such

The administration she works for have kidnapped children and put them in cages where they have been neglected, drugged, molested, and killed. They destroy the poor and middle class to make the rich even richer. They support nazis. They lie, cheat, and steal. They have destroyed US policies and reputation abroad. They coddle dictators and alienate allies. They are taking healthcare away from those who need it most.

Their minions have harassed journalists. They attack minorities and anyone who doesn't agree with them.

So, to quote a popular T-shirt from the rethug convention: Hey, Sarah! Fuck your feelings!

[Saboburns]

41. Clearly Sanders is the victim here

Poor dear.

She says those meanie meanies even have the temerity to disparage her looks, even her gender.!

Can you believe that people actually do that in America? Make sport of someone's looks, and belittle a female simply because of her gender

Perish the thought.

[ProfessorPlum]

44. She's crying because a comedian talked about her at the correspondents dinner?

Womp womp

She knew exactly what that dinner was about. After Colbert's epic takedown of the Bush admin, she has no right to pretend to cry about what happens there.

Jesus, what a loser
