Keep this up, media, and President Trump will get a third term:
Before each White House briefing, Sarah Huckabee Sanders privately reads from a book of Christian devotionals. https://t.co/pAJpurfCYr

And of all the things to focus on, why this? Well, other than for the clicks from angry liberals, that is:
"Thou shall not…. ummm… what's the word…. ah fuck it I'll just lie my ass off again" https://t.co/r6VCYtfLAU

Here’s the quote in context, which is buried deep in Grynbaum’s article:
An evangelical who reads from a book of Christian devotionals before every briefing — and the daughter of the pastor-turned-presidential-candidate Mike Huckabee, the former Republican governor of Arkansas — Ms. Sanders is an unlikely public face for Mr. Trump, a twice-divorced connoisseur of grievance.
Has any other press secretary ever had his or her religion questioned before as it relates to the job?
