Sarah Sanders was taking questions this morning from the press and a reporter asked Sanders a ridiculous question, one that she didn’t like at all:
Reporter: "Was the president encouraging false statements, obstruction, things that are charged in the indictment?"
Sanders: "That is probably one of the more ridiculous and insulting questions… frankly, it's just insulting, it's just not true" pic.twitter.com/SbHqQKceby

As I said in my last post, the media will be salivating about how this arrest could have something to do with Trump, and here is the first example of that I’ve seen (I haven’t been awake long).
On what basis is a question like this even asked? It was mentioned in the indictment that Stone had contact with Trump campaign officials in 2016 (not the last two years) and that HE tampered with a witness, HE gave false statements to Congress and HE obstructed justice. Not Trump.
I don’t blame Sanders for answering the way she did.
Here’s more from her:
JUST IN: Sarah Sanders responds to Roger Stone indictment: "This doesn't have anything to do with the president, doesn't have anything to do with the White House." https://t.co/e5YsMGOpYj pic.twitter.com/miFEQqdVfh
