Suddenly Trump's surrogate du jour is Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Want to guess why?

She's a zaftig woman whose face hadn't been seen up til now. She is suddenly useful. This is no coincidence, and as a woman of some (fine) girth myself I'm disgusted by that manipulation.

I noticed during his two weeks of "African-American outreach" all his surrogates were black. And when he has problems with hispanics, his surrogates are suddenly all Latino. He's disgusting.

I know it's silly but I get more pissed at women who sell their souls than I do men. We have so damned much to lose!
