Sarah Huckabee Sanders says Stone indictment has nothing to do with Trump

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders insisted Friday that the indictment of President Donald Trump's longtime associate Roger Stone has nothing to do with the President.

"This has nothing to do with the President and certainly nothing to do with the White House," Sanders told CNN's John Berman on "New Day" when asked for her reaction to Stone's arrest. "This is something that has to do solely with that individual. And not something that affects us here in this building."

Stone was indicted on charges brought by special counsel Robert Mueller, who alleges that Stone sought stolen emails from WikiLeaks that could damage Trump's opponents while in coordination with senior Trump campaign officials. Stone was arrested at his home in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, early Friday morning.

The indictment states that "a senior Trump Campaign official was directed to contact Stone" about additional releases and other damaging information WikiLeaks had on the Clinton campaign — though it does not name who directed the senior Trump campaign official.

Sanders was asked several times by CNN on Friday if the President was the one who directed a senior campaign official to contact Stone.

She reiterated each time that the charges against Stone "have nothing to do with the President."

You lying sack of shit.

3. you know, i wonder if she realizes that the longer she stays there lying for Trump

the more likely she is going to get caught in obstruction of justice or such and end up in jail. She does not seem to have any awareness that the Trump ship is sinking and it will take everybody with it.

4. She sounds so sincere.

It's a shame her stage shows aren't getting the praiseshe thinks she deserves. nt

5. Yet he was indicted for crimes that benfitted Trump, like all the other arrests.

Amazing co-incidence.

6. Sarah Sanders, January 2020: "I suppose I should remember who Donald Trump is,

but I'm not sure I actually ever met him. I guess I might have heard people mention his name now and then, but I was busy being White House Secretary, and with all the people coming and going constantly, that I wouldn't have had the time to pay attention to absolutely everybody who wandered through the room clutching an old Big Mac "
