You lost?' Sarah Huckabee Sanders catches heat for going to NASCAR event during tornadoes [View all]
Republican Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders caught flak on Sunday after appearing at a NASCAR event in North Carolina while deadly tornadoes are sweeping through her own state.
Sanders, who was recently criticized for "unethical behavior" while employed by Donald Trump's White House that was exposed during the former president's criminal trial, posted on social media on Sunday that her constituents should be concerned about the severe weather systems. In her state alone, at least five people were killed in the storm, according to recent reports.
"I declared a state of emergency to support the communities affected by last night’s severe weather and tornadoes. We remain in close contact with local officials and will continue to do everything possible to help each Arkansan in need," she said on X, formerly Twitter. "Arkansas is again at risk for severe weather tonight. Please follow all guidance from local officials and track reports in your area."
“Maybe instead of focusing on your *next* job, you could do the one you currently have," the account wrote.
