"I would refer you to..." "I would direct you to..." "I haven't spoken to him about that..." What the hell is her job if not to give the American people actual answers?

[mroceans]

Her only job in this world is to lie for Spanky. What a terrible job.

[moonridepyramid]

What is the point? She tells us nothing.

[QuicksilverCooley]

I'm beginning too think the president really don't talk to her too much ... lol

[IanSinclair]

I would refer you to watching paint dry

[AM-xvud]

All that lying and deflecting must be killing her inside, given that she is such a God-fearing "christian"

[mikeklar]

she never answers the hard questions and just passes them off useless

The Queen of England has announced that the trumps WILL NOT BE INVITED to the Royal Wedding. She plans to invite The Obamas, The Clintons and the Bushes and Jimmy Carter but NOT trump! Best news I've heard all day!!!!

Let's begin this press conference by me saying "I'm not aware of anything"

[itwasagoodideaatthetime]

God she's so rude to the press. How can this woman look at herself on the mirror after all the lies she tells.

"I don't have anything further to add, ask someone else".... the end.

"I don't know, I am not aware, I refer you to...., I refer you to..., again I refer you to..., I have nothing more to say"

A government has the duty to justify their actions before their people. Whenever it gets critical she disclaims responsibility. This is highly problematic in a democracy.

What is the point of her being up there? Every response to a question was " I would have to refer you back to the Presidents comments". They actually pay her?

[allie_hart]

It's great to hear the journalists backing each other up when she tried to skip over uncomfortable questions not that it did any good other than to force her to at least acknowledge these issues. It's satisfying to see y'all rubbing her nose in it at least :)

[jeckjeck]

Nixon thought so, too. He did not end well.

[hectorbelmares]

Sarah Sanders, your days are numbered too. Thank god!

"I'm not going to get into specifics" "I'm not going to get into generalizations" "I'm not going to get into hypotheticals" "I don't have anything else to add on that [or any other topic]" 'I'd refer you literally anyone else', So why do reporters even bother with her? She's not there to answer questions, she's there to spew propaganda.

[temsbaby]

She didn't answer one damn question...

[darlenefarmer]

My goodness, who is worse...Sarah "Lurch" Sanders or the Crypt Keeper Kellyanne Conjob?

[spookyryu]

she needs to be a dodgeball player in ESPN ocho, lol
