Huckabee Sanders Joins Fox News And Everyone Is Making The Same Joke
Former White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders drew ire after announcing her new gig as a contributor for Fox News on Thursday.
Critics suggested it was no surprise that Sanders, who repeatedly obscured the truth on behalf of Donald Trump during her time in his administration, should join the widely watched conservative network whose prime time anchors are unabashed Trump enthusiasts.
Excited to join @FoxNews as a contributor, looking forward to being with the @foxandfriends team for my first hit on September 6th. https://t.co/Jb2HCFc1aM

Sanders left the White House in July.
Former CBS news anchor Dan Rather tweeted that her new role was “about as surprising as water flowing down hill.”
“In a way, Sarah, you’ve been a Fox contributor all along,” responded another person.
The news that Sarah Huckabee Sanders is joining Fox News is about as surprising as water flowing down hill.

I’m not surprised Sarah Huckabee Sanders is joining Fox News, but I will be surprised to see what she looks like as a blonde.

Big congratulations to you, Sarah! I'm sure your recent experience twisting the truth into pretzels and outright lying prepared you well for your new career at @FoxNews.

Dancing with the Stars turned you down ?
You weren’t working for Fox News already when you were at the White House?— PD (@PDinCanada) August 22, 2019
So #FoxNews hires #sarahsanders a full-time liar. A liar. A LIAR. An absolutely no holds-barred LIAR. And #FoxNews expects to be taken seriously as a news source? Hey @ChrisWallace101 want to tell us again how the news division is real? https://t.co/oqVfuHVhGz

You're a natural. What better place for Trump's former propaganda than Trump state TV?
— ResistanceRules (@ResistanceRules) August 22, 2019
It's frankly no surprise you're joining a hateful, bigoted, racist, xenophobic, lying bunch of toads that spread fake news and rightwing propaganda. You'll fit right in, Slanders!

In a way, Sarah, you’ve been a Fox contributor all along.
