The scary thing about Sarah Huck's departure...

...is that we'd thought no one could be worse than Spicer. It curdles the mind to consider how much worse her replacement will be, given that particular trend in this administration.

I'm sure they will get another horrible liar and a'hole, but she was truly one of a kind.

Her trip was paid by us. Probably went on the pretext that she might talk to the press, or something.

It won't be a guy. He needs women to vouch for him. Kellyanne Conway may be a short timer, and, well Betsy DeVos? I don't think so.

29. why do they even need a "press secretary"?

That's a job for someone who addresses and fields questions from the press on a regular basis...and runs, you know, press conferences and stuff, to keep the public informed about the White House's plans and intentions, etc.

They might as well just hire Alex Jones, or Rush, or maybe Hannity as Minister of Propaganda and be done with it.

of the stupid, inane tweets and spouting off the cuff gibberish at reporters. No need for anyone else. Months ago they quit holding press briefings, which were just exercises in lying and general obfuscation, and no one cared. Why go back?

Sarah just ate it up with a spoon. She actually seemed to enjoy defending her lies and "sticking it" to the press.

If she ran for Governor, she would likely win - God help us.

Don't be deceived, Sarah is not anything near as stupid as she tries to make out. She's very bright and pure evil.

She is deceiving, manipulative, sanctimonious - the evil spawn of an evil family. However, she isn't stupid. We underestimate her at our peril.
