WATCH: Jimmy Kimmel Parodies Press Sec’s Truth Dodgeball in ‘Mommin’ with Sarah Huckabee Sanders’

 

Jimmy Kimmel mocked White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders for her press scolding and question dodging in a segment he dubbed “Mommin’ with  Sarah Huckabee Sanders.”

Kimmel introduced the segment by noting it has been a hard week for the working mom, who has been “hammered for playing dodgeball with the truth this week, even more than usual.”

Then, Kimmel said Sanders also had a hard time at home with her kids, launching the parody that starts when one of Sanders’ “kids” asks if they can have ice cream for breakfast.

Sanders, who is shown in a house with Trump pictures in the kitchen, is then heard using the language from her contentious press briefings.

“Your father made his position crystal clear,” Sanders begins.

Next, as the kids shout for “ice cream, ice cream,” the press secretary continues on, “I let you rudely interrupt me and your colleague. I mean I ask you to allow me to finish my answer.”

Then when the little boy asks the little girl a question, Sanders scolds again.

“I would be happy to answer if you would stop talking long enough for me to do that,” she lectures the kids.

Just like in recent real-life press briefings, Sanders never does answer the question if the kids can have ice cream and walks off, prompting one of the kids to tell her, “Mom, you forgot to feed us.”
