Asked if she can guarantee the president will never be heard on tape saying the N-word, Sanders says she can’t guarantee anything but he’s addressed this and told Americans he didn’t.
On her refusal to guarantee there’s no N-word tape, Sanders explains that she hasn’t been “in every single room” Trump has been in.
Sanders says that if she and other Trump aides found out Trump was who his critics say he is, ”We certainly wouldn’t be here.”
It’s interesting - on some things Sanders is willing to do guns-blazing denials in her own voice, on other things she’s careful to attribute the denials to the president.
Asked to address concerns that the president is racist against African-Americans, Sanders says he’s probably said more “nasty things” about non-African-Americans.
Not sure the president’s spokespeople have characterized his insults as “nasty” before, but also not sure Trump would mind.
Asked about the NDAs Trump aides were forced to sign, Sanders lies, “it’s very normal in every administration prior to the Trump administration for anyone that had a security clearance.” End of briefing.
Defending Trump against racism charges, Sanders falsely claimed Obama created just "195,000 jobs for African-Americans" over eight years.
In January 2009, 15.5 million African-Americans were employed. In December 2016, Obama's last full month: 18.3 million. Gain of 2.8 million.
