it's like she is from another time .
when i think of how right wing men want women to be like i think of her.
it's not just beause she is a republican either since i don't get the same feeling with kellyanne conway or many other republican women.
it could also be because i know who her dad is.

(5,626 posts)What does she expect? She makes Spicer look like a Rhodes scholar. She also tries "I'm a poor widdle girl" moves at times: softer voice, lowers her shoulders, looks up through her eyelashes, etc -- especially when she claims that she doesn't know the answer or that she has to look something up (when she is scrambling for time)

Not Sarah. She got her dad's looks, but none of his charm. She looks angry all the time, and mean to boot.

(16,388 posts)When people got to heaven they were told they could go anywhere except past a very high wall. One day someone asked St Peter why they couldn't go to the other side of the wall. St Peter replied That's where we put the Fundamentalists. The only way they're happy is when they believe they are the only ones that made it to Heaven.

I had an employee like that once, she would make colossal errors and laugh it off as Gods will or God shall provide. Finally I fired her after the same costly error twice in one day. God don't pay the office overhead

Sarah gives off the vibe you describe, for sure.

(2,300 posts)that thought having the red haired brother really leaning on the bench that way would look natural? Sarah can get away with it because she's younger, and therefore, not as tall. But it's too late for him; he's too tall. If this is the pose they insist on, we either need a bigger bench, or a shorter brother.

I'm sure she was once a real live human being - before the technicians at GOP Westworld replaced her brain with a tape loop that reminds us that with Republicans in power, nothing can go wrong ... wrong ... wrong.

(39,116 posts)How can you be normal in a spooky goddamned family like this? I feel so sorry for the dog--I hope s/he survived. They obviously grew up with dogs--it just makes that sick fuck's torture & murder of that stray dog that much worse.

This is the sick fuck who tortured and murdered a stray dog. Huckabee excused the whole thing away, saying that his son "was just a child" at the time. Some child. He was 2 weeks shy of his 18th birthday when he murdered the dog. Sick fucking psychopath. I don't know when this mugshot was taken. Cue up the banjos.

(10,943 posts)...if she believes what she states. Kelly Ann Conway does not; "off the record" she says she knows it's lies; once, Mika and Joe revealed her post-camera remarks. But some of these people believe their own lies. So, when Sarah Huckabee Sanders rails against "fake news" she may not know Trump is the major provider of "fake news". I know "conservatives" who believe Trump's claims about Obama being born in Africa and think Hillary destroyed her emails to cover up her murders. Trump is in league with the Enquirer - a "fake news" outlet with numerous fake stories - Cruz' father & JFK. They believe this garbage - perhaps Sarah Huckabee Sanders is also a believer?

(10,222 posts)at times troll the press. He could be snarky. She just goes on and on without coming up for air. It is very robotic. She was doing that yesterday and while doing brought up how the media should be talking about the goods things going on with VA now. She just babbled through that and then continued without breathing. I was sitting there thinking, 'wait. good things at the VA"? What is that? All the WH did was make it easier to fire people. That was very reported. But the WH wants the media to start fawning. That is not their job. She is a piece of work.

(36,975 posts)for him to put that little twit on his "team." She has as much charisma as a rock, and absolutely zero t.v. persona. I can just see old man Huckabee putting the screws on Chumpy, every time his idiot child squeals she wants a bigger position in the WH.

(24,324 posts)hamsterjill
(17,557 posts)She's just not good at hiding it. The nastiness and rudeness comes out.
Personally, for me, her voice just sets me on edge. It's like it's hard for lack of a better word. Like she starts every syllable with a hard consonant. I think there's been an attempt to make her more physically attractive (i.e., her hair looks darker to me), but her physical attractiveness or lack thereof isn't going to change the fact that she's ugly and cynical in her responses to journalists. She just comes across as a typical Trump bully to me.
