Farewell, Sarah

quote:
Sarah Sanders is leaving the White House as press secretary, President Trump said Thursday on Twitter.

Trump said Sanders would be leaving after more than three years at the White House, and that he hoped she would run for governor of Arkansas.

After 3 1/2 years, our wonderful Sarah Huckabee Sanders will be leaving the White House at the end of the month and going home to the Great State of Arkansas....
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 13, 2019

....She is a very special person with extraordinary talents, who has done an incredible job! I hope she decides to run for Governor of Arkansas - she would be fantastic. Sarah, thank you for a job well done!

More than three years at the White House? He's been in office for less than 2-1/2 years.

She’s an excellent liar. She’ll end up at Fox or in politics.

I'd imagine Fox News is her first stop. Her husband and her kids live in the metro DC area, don't they? They have three kids under the age of 10. They'd have to do a pretty big relocation for her to run for governor in Arkansas.

Plus, the next time there's an election for governor in Arkansas is 2022. (Asa Hutchinson will be term limited and unable to run for re-election, so that would be her shot.)

There's something quite beautiful about Trump bidding farewell to Sarah Sanders with a false statement about her length of service

Typifies the whole administration, and the new norm in American life. We're the dishonest nation ...

I think this was an example of his imprecise language and phrasing.

I *think* what he was trying to say is that she is leaving the White House, and that she worked with Himself for 3 1/2 years (2 1/2 in the White House and a year on the campaign).

Problem is when someone with this lack of verbal precision goes to negotiate a deal with KJU .... between the him and the English/Korean translation, who knows what kind of deal we'd get?

I don’t think this kind of error is a big deal, any more than Obama’s ‘57 states’. I do this kind of thing daily.

I just thought Frum’s comment was funny.
