Trump Starting To Sour On Sanders, Plans To Grade Her Press Briefings
By Kate Riga | June 26, 2018 7:27 am
An entire 48 hours after the fact, President Donald Trumps lackluster Twitter defense of Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders after she was booted from the Red Hen restaurant is the tip of a much larger dissatisfaction iceberg, according to a Monday New York Times report.
In the tweet, he called her a fine person, choosing to focus on maligning the cleanliness of the restaurant, which actually shines in comparison to the myriad health code violations his own establishments have faced.
The lukewarm response is a public display of private conversations and musings the President has reportedly been entertaining lately as he questions his press secretarys toughness. Per the New York Times, ever since she did not walk out during comedian Michelle Wolfs roast at the White House Correspondents Dinner, Trump has sustained doubts about her strength.
Those qualms have only intensified lately, as Trump has reportedly been asking around for peoples opinion of Sanders, a classic sign of his growing discontent with a staffer. He has also been threatening to grade her performances at the daily White House press briefings from now on, though some sources told the New York Times that he made the threat in jest.
The fickle Presidents mercurial emotions are reportedly adding to a sense of unease in the White House, an atmosphere heightened by the recent string of public confrontations of Trump administration staffers, including Sanders.

(6,709 posts)We need to work on Miller too, and how his recommendations are disastrous, unwinnable, and make the pr*znit look weak. Leave the moral aspect alone because this crew has none.
Hammer him over and over with his weakness. Soon all the lackeys will be gone and twitler will be unable to get anything done because he doesn't actually understand how anything works.
