A Liar
Trump's spokesperson says it bothers her to be called a liar because one's reputation is all one has. She is right about that, but her words belie her. The article cites four instances in which she lied about facts and says there are more examples as well. Perhaps Sarah Sanders doesn't know the facts or, as her boss does, makes them up as she goes along. This administration has a peculiar relationship to the truth. It is whatever someone says in the moment, facts be damned. Unfortunately, the media keeps track of facts and is only too eager to point out when there is a discrepancy between what one says and what is right. Sanders can be hurt by words about her, but she had better get used to it, or best of all, resign her position. She can let someone else who doesn't worry about reputation take her place and lie constantly.
