Sarah Huckabee Sanders Calls Jemele Hill’s Trump Comments a ‘Fireable Offense’

Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked about recent comments by SportsCenter anchor Jemele Hill about President Trump, and she called it a “fireable offensive.”

Hill tweeted earlier this week that the President is a white supremacist. She has not been fired by ESPN, but the network did issue a statement after some online outcry.

The White House Press Secretary today said that’s “one of the more outrageous comments that anyone could make, and certainly something that I think is a fireable offense by ESPN.”
