Acosta Confronts Sarah Sanders in First Briefing Since Feud With WH: Why Doesn’t Trump Have Faith in His Advisers?

by Josh Feldman | Nov 27th, 2018, 2:39 pm

-snip-

Today Sarah Huckabee Sanders took a question from Acosta regarding Paul Manafort, but he managed to get in a follow-up asking this:

ACOSTA: The President doesn’t believe the warnings in the climate report. The President doesn’t believe the CIA when it comes to Jamal Khashoggi. The President doesn’t believe…

SANDERS: That’s not accurate.

ACOSTA: …the intelligence community when it comes to Russia meddling. Why doesn’t he have faith in his advisers?


Sanders insisted Trump does have a “great deal of faith in the intelligence community” and said “we haven’t seen definitive evidence” from them that ties the Saudi crown prince to Jamal Khashoggi‘s murder.

Sarah requires a video of MBS ordering the murder and receipts of him buying a bone saw. Yeah, that's what she needs!

He hasn't seen "definitive proof" that Hillary did anything for which she could be charged, yet he was ready to holler "lock her up".

They are all proven republican liars. But I think Acosta already knew the answer when he posed the questions. Too bad SHS is incapable of truth, integrity, or honor.
