Sarah Sanders, the former White House press secretary who admitted to Robert Mueller that she lied to reporters, told the New York Times: I dont like being called a liar.
<<snip>>
She told the Times: There are two types of people who run for office. People that are called and people that just want to be a senator or governor. I feel like Ive been called.
Sanders seems to be targeting the governorship in 2022, when Asa Hutchinsons time is up.
Its the role Ive been pushed into, Sanders said. I wouldnt want to do that if I wasnt the right person to fit what the state needed at that time.

Sanders also discussed her treatment by the press, opponents of Trump (including those who famously asked her to leave a restaurant in Virginia) and a comedian at the White House Correspondents Dinner.
I was attacked for everything, not just my performance, Sanders said. I was called a fat soccer mom, my kids were threatened, my life was threatened. It was a lot. I hate harping on it, but to be in the position Im in and to have Secret Service, thats not normal.
After a pause, the Times said, Sanders added: I dont like being called a liar. The other stuff bothered me far less.
Discussing Trumps prospects for re-election, Sanders said she intended to help with the campaign, which, should Trump win or lose, would help her own ambitions: If he wins, theres a solid base and people will come in and be helpful. If he loses, people will be angry and they will want to rally around Trump people.

(63,221 posts)Not only does she think she was honest, she believes she was "called" to run for Governor. These religious nutcases can talk themselves into anything all the while telling themselves that "God" is guiding them and telling them what to do.

The Lord detests lying lips, but He delights in people who are trustworthy.

... Denying knowledge of Trumps in-office hush-money payoffs, despite the fact that Trump himself admitted to them;
Claiming that Trump had created far more jobs for African Americans than Obama, when, in reality, Obama created four times as many as Trump;
Insisting, with a straight face, that her boss had never promoted or encouraged violence, seemingly forgetting the time Trump told supporters at a rally, of a protester whod been ejected, Id like to punch him in the face; or the time he told a crowd in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously, okay. Just knock the hell I promise you I will pay for the legal fees, I promise; or the time he openly fantasized about Second Amendment people preventing the appointment of liberal judges; or the time he instructed police officers to knock suspects heads against the side of their squad cars ...
And, of course who could forget the time she created an elaborate yarn about how shed heard from countless
individuals who work at the FBI who said they were very happy with Trumps decision to fire James Comey, in an attempt to make the story that the firing was all about agency morale stick, and had nothing whatsoever to do with the Russia investigation. Which, of course, she admitted was a total lie during her interview with Special Counsel Robert Mueller ...
