I'm starting to take a shine to Sarah Sanders

She's got that plain-spokenness borne of solid conviction that makes Nikki Haley such a rock star. I dig her a lot more than I do her dad. It would be interesting to see how she did serving an actually conservative president.

Here's how she handled a question about the dustup over the "animals" remark:

"The president was very clearly referring to MS-13 gangs members who enter the U.S. illegally and whose deportations are hamstrung by our laws," Sanders said. "This is one of the most vicious, and deadly gangs that operates by the motto of 'rape, control and kill.' If the media and liberals want to defend MS-13, they're more than welcome to. Frankly, I don't think the term the president used was strong enough."
"MS-13 has done heinous acts. It took an animal to stab a man 100 times and decapitate him and rip his heart out. It took an animal to beat a woman they were sex trafficking with a bat 28 times, indenting part of her body. And it took an animal to kidnap, drug and rape a 14-year-old Houston girl," she continued. "Frankly, I think that the term animal doesn't go far enough and I think the President should continue to use his platform and everything he can do under the law to stop these types of horrible, horrible, disgusting people."
Tell it, sister!

  1. Face it. You're a closet Trump cult follower yearning to be free. :o)

  2. I find him as loathsome as I ever have. But good things are happening on his watch. As I said elsewhere - and I'm far from the only conservative to be saying it - these times require one to be able to simultaneously recognize the truth of two disparate phenomena.

  3. It's way to early to evaluate the outcomes. Time (and the most tell-all memoirs in history, as Trump always bests his largely incompetent predecessors) will tell the truth about these good things you and your ilk claim Trump is doing.
