Regardless of who’s occupying the Oval Office, White House press secretary has to be one of the toughest jobs out there. Especially if you’re contending with crap like this:
WATCH: CNN political contributor asks @PressSec "have you ever been sexually harassed?" https://t.co/foDW2VJVCT pic.twitter.com/iW0z1VZPcB

Skip ahead to the 14:00 (or -3:50) mark to see CNN political analyst Brian J. Karem ask Sarah Huckabee Sanders this:
“As a woman standing up there talking to us, I know your job is to relate what the president says … Have you ever been sexually harassed, and do you understand— and I’m not saying by the president, I’m saying ever — and, secondly, do you have an empathy for those who come forward, because it’s very difficult for women to come forward?”
Excuse us?
Wtf?!!!

Sheesh, White House correspondent asks Sarah Sanders at daily briefing if she's ever been sexually harassed. How is that appropriate?

Probably the most disturbing and inappropriate question anyone has asked @PressSecSanders this year and possibly ever.

The press sinks lower in the swamp every day. More draining, faster please.

I don't know from what wellspring she gets her patience but I wish God would grant me half as much. https://t.co/TBidXTGHCa

No kidding. Huckabee Sanders handled Karem’s question with a hell of a lot more grace than he deserved.
I think we ought ask @BrianKarem in public if he's ever sexually harassed a woman.
