Mika Rips Into Huckabee Sanders For Defending Trump's Tweet
Mika Brzezinski really went off this morning on Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House staff, and of course Trump, over his refusal to apologize for his "disgusting" tweet about Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand. She was furious that Sanders defended it:
"I want to know how she does that and where the chief of staff is, or where anybody else in the White House is this morning or where they were after that tweet went out yesterday," she said.
"The president should have taken it down. The president should have apologized if he didn't take it down. He should have apologized for hurting Senator Kirsten Gillibrand's feelings, at the very least. But he should have apologized for being a sexist pig, for sexually harassing on Twitter, for using sex to denigrate women. And again, I mentioned yesterday, the president is obsessed with women, especially some women, especially women who go on television and have a voice or especially women who serve in Congress or in the Senate who use their voices, any woman that stands up against him, he is obsessed with."
"He has some special problem with women and the women around him, his wife, who has a platform against cyber bullying. that's a joke. That is the saddest thing I've ever seen in this White House ever in my life," Brzezinski said.
"And his daughter, who came to Washington to work for the president and develop a platform for women, go home. Go home. You are doing nothing if you stand by this president. And you should think of the country rather than your brand.
