Two (male) columnists attack Sarah Huckabee Sanders for her looks, weight, and accent

I'm kind of surprised it took this long for idiot columnists to go after her on a personal level. After all she's pretty effective as the President's press secretary.

Two male, liberal columnists this week launched personal attacks against White House press secretary Sarah Sanders.

Los Angeles Times columnist David Horsey mocked Sanders’ appearance, saying she “looks more like a slightly chunky soccer mom who organizes snacks for the kids’ games.”

Another columnist, the New York Times’ Frank Bruni, similarly went out of his way on Friday to bash Sanders for her personal characteristics, in this case her way of speaking.

Bruni wrote that Sanders is “serving a function other than communication, which turns out not to be her forte.”

“To listen to her pronounce ‘priorities’ is akin to hearing the air seep out of a flat tire, and she leaves half of the consonants on the curb,” Bruni added parenthetically, mocking Sanders for her Southern accent.

Horsey apologized for his description of Sanders in an update to his column … “I want to apologize to Times readers — and to Sarah Huckabee Sanders — for a description that was insensitive and failed to meet the standards of our newspaper. It also failed to meet the expectations I have for myself. It surely won’t be my last mistake, but this particular error will be scrupulously avoided in my future commentaries. I’ve removed the offending description,”…

Don't count on Frank Bruni apologizing.

  1. I have to believe that her father – former Governor Mike Huckabee, and her grandfather – crazy Bernie Sanders, can’t be very happy about this !
