What's the point of Sarah Huckabee Sanders' press "briefings"?

[George II]

Her answer to question after question is "I haven't had that conversation with him", "I don't know", "that hasn't been discussed", etc.

She seems more concerned with birthdays than providing any real information!!

[nolabear]

1. ...

[Tommy_Carcetti]

2. For her to dazzle us all with her personality, of course. nt

[atreides1]

4. Her personality is about as dazzling...

...as a dead star!!!

[spiderpig]

3. "See Sarah."

"See Sarah flounder."

[George II]

10. Sarah holding a briefing:

[spiderpig]

11. Tee-hee!!!

I feel like banging my meal tray on my prison bars and yelling "Bring back Spicey! Bring back Spicey!"

[Kleveland]

23. That looks more like a tuna than a flounder...

Though flounders are bottom feeding, which surely describes the current administration.

[HipChick]

19. I am confused...I thought it was Halibut

?

[spiderpig]

22. (Insert your seafood of choice)

Crab?
Shrimp?
Sea urchin?

[42bambi]

5. Fake News Briefing. n/t

[Iliyah]

6. When giving information, lying is her strong point.

[SharonClark]

7. Because they know the press will cover it, so it's an opportunity to get more lies out there.

[NightWatcher]

8. She's the lady from every office who keeps track of birthdays, duh

[George II]

13. This woman?

Damn, I love the internet, you can find anything you need in seconds!

[NightWatcher]

20. And we can access the net from anywhere, including the bathroom.

Remember when you had to seek information? No more scanning through microfiche at the main library downtown. Now you can get anything from your toilet while you sit there conducting business.

[Wellstone ruled]

9. Bullshit and Propaganda.

[cilla4progress]

12. Why isn't anyone asking about

the latest Steele Dossier disclosures?

Just to harass her.

[anneboleyn]

26. She always calls on "friendlies" and very rarely gets any question that is seriously challenging.

[HAB911]

14. someone should ask if she ever sees/speaks to the fake president

she obviously does not

[panader0]

15. "I'll look into that and get back to you."

Spicey did it too.

[Alice11111]

16. To pretend DT commuicates with the press.

[anneboleyn]

29. Exactly. Her whole strategy is dissembling and providing non-answers

[Mike Nelson]

17. At the next...

...press briefing, first questioner should list the dozen or so unanswered or shelved questions and ask for answers.

[Onyrleft]

18. It's like an SNL skit,

The girl you wish you hadn't started a conversation with at a White House briefing.

[George II]

24. When Spicey had the job it WAS an SNL skit. Can't wait for their new season.

[anneboleyn]

30. Now it's pure Orwell. Much less funny.

[Leith]

21. "I Think the President Made Himself Clear on That"

If she says that one more time, I'm going to punch a sofa cushion. No need to destroy my own valuables.

Obviously, shitgibbon has NOT made himself clear on that. It's why the reporter is asking.

[Aristus]

25. To reminds us that Trump supporters nickname their kids things like "Pickle",

and that it's supposed to be cute, instead of unbearably idiotic, infantile, backward, and vapid.

[Elwood P Dowd]

27. What's scary is that there is a real live male human being that has actually copulated with this

urchin enough times to produce three offspring.

[Kleveland]

31. I am now pushing my lunch plate away....

Totally off it, and solid food for a few hours.

[anneboleyn]

28. It's a painfully obvious strategy. She answers NOTHING (either "I don't know" or "we haven't done

it so I'll get back to you" or "I haven't talked to the pres about this&quot and nothing at all gets accomplished. Ever. It is a painful joke (on all of us). Then the Trump circus pretends that they have held a press briefing just like a REAL PRESIDENT DOES (one in a month).

I don't know how the press puts up with this bullshit. They sit there asking her questions and writing down her ridiculous, obviously empty "responses" in this dutiful manner that makes her and the rest of the Trump circus appear legitimate.

[msongs]

32. so long as the media attends these fake events, the fake events will continue nt

[haveahart]

33. Showing off her new makeup.

[Mr. Ected]

34. If it wasn't a violation of child labor laws

I wish the major networks would send 3 year old children to cover these mock news conferences.

Where did the moon come from? Why is the sky blue? Why do I have to wash my hands? Why are you treating us like children?
