Sarah Sanders Abuses Her Government Position To Try To Put A Restaurant Out Of Business

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is using her official government position to attack the restaurant that kicked her out.

Sanders used her press secretary Twitter account, not her personal account to tweet about what a big meanie the restaurant owner was:

This means that her tweet was made as an official statement from the White House that was basically telling Trump supporters to go after this restaurant.

The White House communications staff has also been tweeting about this:

The problem is that their actions are an abuse of their position:

In any other administration, Sanders would have been facing termination, but this is Donald Trump we’re talking about, so the White House press team has piled on in an effort to turn this into an issue that they use to distract people from the fact that most of the kids in Trump’s child detention centers have not been, and may never be, reunited with their parents.

The abuse of power begins in the Oval Office, but it is a thread that runs through the entire Trump White House.
