Sarah Huckabee Sanders Asks ‘Have You Missed Me?’ — Gets a Brutal Response

I don’t know who in the Trump campaign came up with the idea that they could use Sarah Sanders in a campaign fundraiser by sending out a campaign request loaded with the question: “Do you miss me?” But whoever it was, I am dying to meet him or her because I have a ton of great ideas for sale, awaiting just the right buyer.

How could we possibly miss that sneering condescension, loaded with atypical anger, in someone who is supposed to simply be doing the job of relaying information, not fighting it out with the press to prove that Trump is the new Lincoln?

Even if we did like her – which we don’t – it’s hard to miss someone you didn’t see, and we didn’t see much of Sarah, who went the last 100 days of her all too long career as press secretary without a press conference. Of course, even that significant time “away” couldn’t erase the memories of her dripping disdain for people that dared to question the administration overseen by her other personal lord and savior.

Her question was not well received on Twitter, as you might imagine:

That’s not particularly nice, but neither is she, so I guess we’re at an impasse.

One thing the Trump administration has taught us? No matter how much suffering we’ve endured, no matter the incompetence, the humiliation, the cruelty, it can always go lower. So, yes, we have suffered enough, but under no circumstances should tempt them.

Apparently, Sarah has a way of making people conjure misfiring body parts and not pretty ones. Which, I guess sorta fits because … no. We’re not going there. Appearances don’t matter in the least, but an ugly attitude cannot be overcome with any amount of outer beauty.

Sarah, as a “communications” person, you should have known better to ask such a ridiculous question. Trump supporters love Trump, period. There is no extra room in their brain to contemplate their thoughts on things like “other people,” “horrific diseases,” “Russian ownership of a nation,” or “grabbing people by their privates.” So why would someone even care if he or she was missed by those people?

On second thought, don’t answer that question, Sarah. We don’t care. The answer to your question is a simple “no.”

People were pretty brutal:

****

Peace, y’all
