Sarah Sanders: Trump 'could not have been more presidential' in response to bomb attacks

[left-of-center2012]

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Wednesday said President Trump “could not have been more presidential” when he was addressing the string of attempted bomb attacks targeting prominent Democrats, as well as CNN.

Trump initially retweeted Vice President Pence, saying “I wholeheartedly agree” with Pence, who tweeted that he condemns the actions and called the acts “cowardly” and “despicable.”

On Wednesday, Trump spoke briefly about the suspicious packages, condemning "acts or threats of political violence” and making a call for unity.

Thursday morning, Trump took to Twitter to attack the New York Times and mainstream media, calling it “Fake News” for its latest story on Trump’s cellphone habits.

1. I agree. NT

2. What's he actually done?

Beside foment more hate and violence? These are assasination attempts and he’s the one encouraging them. If he had any self-awareness and integrity, he’d resign. Now.

3. Are you fucking kidding me?

Jesus is watching you, Sarah.

4. This is the administration that argued it's presidential because he's president.

[gratuitous]

5. Yep

In the same vein, Trump's response couldn't have been more Trumpian. Or stupid. Or limp. Or ineffectual.

6. Trump could not be "more" presidential (comparative degree) because he is incapable of

being presidential (positive degree)!

7. Obama was presidential every day he was in the White House.

That someone has to point out to one time when he successfully read a statement off a teleprompter is something to be wondered about.

8. Unfortunately for all of us

She's right; he couldn't.
