Discussion»Questions»Education» Please someone with brains explain to me how Sara Huckabee can say to the American Public that she is an honest person?
Well, the general principle is probably that lying about being honest is typically an ability of a liar in the first place.
Can't really explain it though---I don't know if that "principle" is an axiom or a theorem.

God knows who she is.....I've never ever heard of her....I can say though that established liars can and do say exactly what they like or what suits them .......:(
Don't be Jealous. ....England fare no better when it comes to politics and honesty.....I would think more then three quarters of our Politicans are born natural liars to...:(
Sarah Huckabee Sanders is an American campaign manager and political advisor who was appointed White House Press Secretary to President Donald Trump in July 2017.
She would have to be, or Trump wouldn't employ her. He demands unconditional loyalty of all his employees, but the record so far indicates that he does not reciprocate it. If they make a mistake, or if they discoverer that he's not what they first thought and speak to him about it, he gives them the sack. Former Trump Whitehouse employees are now discovering that they can no longer find work with anyone else. Hundreds of positions in the Whitehouse are now vacant because people are not applying to fill the positions of those Trump has sacked. Trump's position is becoming increasingly precarious as a significant proportion of Republicans now regret their choice of him as a candidate. Some are working hard to work around him to limit and repair the damage, others are trying to coach him as is visible in his professionally pre-written speeches, others are distancing themselves to protect their future careers. But there is still a strong cohort who genuinely support his policies, if not his methods. Because of the size of the USA's economy and its influence on the well-being of other nations, this news, along with the evidence, is going out worldwide, and being daily publically analyzed and discussed by professors of American politics.
We might take into account that Ms Sanders could be excused for dishonesty in the sense that before mounting the podium to deceive the public, she has taken great pains to deceive herself.
Sanders is employed to speak for the President (on points he will eventually undermine her about) and I’d be curious to read the part of her contract that covers relinquishing her soul. Sadly (at least for her) she will be virtually unemployable after Trump discards her (and her soul) for the next sucker.
If you doubt that, just ask Sean Spicer.

Some people believe that as long as you don't admit to something, you're innocent until proven guilty. In the court of the press, "innocence" can sometimes amount to trial by public opinion. So some politicians and diplomats believe that if they deny something consistently it will either create a margin of doubt about the evidence or at least guide the stances of their loyal supporters.
It is a foolish strategy when evidence to the contrary has been proven and published. But a fool always imagines the listener to be more foolish and gullible than him or herself.
