Frankly, Chris
Squalid Sarah Sanders pulls us down some more:
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Sunday that she doesn’t think congressional Democrats are “smart enough” to review President Donald Trump’s tax returns should they succeed in obtaining the documents.
“This is a dangerous, dangerous road and frankly, Chris, I don’t think Congress, particularly not this group of congressmen and women, are smart enough to look through the thousands of pages that I would assume that President Trump’s taxes will be,” Sanders told “Fox News Sunday” host Chris Wallace.
Yes, that’s what the executive branch is supposed to do: go on tv to call the legislative branch stupid.
“My guess is most of them don’t do their own taxes, and I certainly don’t trust them to look through the decades of success that the President has and determine anything,” she said, adding that attempts to obtain the returns are “a disgusting overreach.”
The decades of success facilitated by decades of cheating, lying, theft, and corruption. Those decades of success.
And of course there are no tax lawyers in Congress, or on staff, or within consulting distance.
Just more failing state things.
Are the details of the lies she tells scripted by others, or does she make them up herself? At this point I’m not sure which would be worse, telling someone else’s lies for them, or telling your own. With the former, I suppose, she could say “it’s just part of the job,” that she’s just passing along someone else’s untruths, a liar for hire.
Then again, once you’ve uttered it, the lie is yours.
By “a disgusting overreach” I assume she means “an entirely warranted use of constitutionally granted power.”
Ah, so it’s a problem in translation.
