You can count Jim Carrey as the latest person to tell soon-to-be-former White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders to not let the door hit her on the way out.
A frequent critic of Sanders, Carrey expressed his pleasure with Sanders’ departure and displeasure with her as a person in his latest artistic rendering.
“Good Riddance, Sarah Huckabee Sanders! Now the only one you have to lie to is Jesus,” Carrey captioned the art, which portrays a multi-chinned Sanders in an unflattering pose praying at Jesus’ crucifix with a circle behind her head.
This isn’t the first time that Sanders has the subject of actor/artist Carrey’s art. Previously, he has depicted her as a Gorgon and has called her “monstrous.”
On Thursday, Donald Trump announced in a series of tweets that Sanders would be leaving his administration.
Sanders has been with the Trump White House for two and a half years and has served as White House press secretary since May 2017, taking over for Sean Spicer.
“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…” Trump wrote. “…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!”

Conservatives apparently found the painting quite distasteful, and lashed out on Twitter themselves:
Hatred has destroyed you. https://t.co/rE9NFGOFp0 [3]

I'm surprised to see so many on the left mocking someone's appearance. I thought they were trying to bring America in a better direction leaving this sort of stuff behind, atleast that's what they're messages have sounded like from the center. Actions are contradictory though

That’s beyond disgusting. I hope @PressSec [10] @realDonaldTrump [11] take you to task @jimcarrey [12] @cnn [13] @FoxNewsSunday [14] 🙏 for your salvation

@JimCarrey [12] you should be ashamed of your portrayal of @SarahHuckabee [16]. She served America by constantly facing an inquisitive and hostile media. Why the hateful picture of a public servant?

This is #Hollyweird [18] at it's best. Jim Carrey you need help. Psychiatric help. So much for tolerance and love from the left. I'll pray for you. https://t.co/fUbNmVFjsN [19]
