At a hastily-organized press briefing today, topics ranged from new sanctions on Turkish officials, to whether identification is required to buy groceries, to Trump's simmeringly hostile rally in Tampa Tuesday night.
David Martosko of the Daily Mail, also formerly from the Daily Caller lobbed a question at Sarah Sanders that should have been a slam dunk.
First question, paraphrased: Does Trump support the QAnon and Blacks for Trump whack, or no?
Second question: "Is the White House willing to say in view of what happened to one of our TV colleagues last night he thinks it's wrong for vocal supporters to be menacing towards journalists doing their job in a situation like that or any situation?"
Remarkably, Sanders could not simply answer the second question. The first one she gave the stock answer to, where Trump "condemns and denounces any group that would incite violence" yada yada.
This, of course, is a lie. We have an unapologetic Trump on video calling for protesters at rallies to be beaten up, others where he incited violence against Hillary Clinton, and still others where he offered to pay the legal bills for supporters who committed violent acts against those who oppose him.
