Sarah Sanders Slams ‘Failing’ NYT Over Trump Tax Report, Suggests They Should Apologize

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders put out a statement tonight responding to the “failing” New York Times report on President Donald Trump‘s tax “schemes” and possible fraud.

As of this posting, Trump himself has yet to publicly respond to the report, but Sanders said, “Fred Trump has been gone for nearly twenty years and it’s sad to witness this misleading attack against the Trump family by the failing New York Times.”

She makes a point of saying their credibility is “at an all time low” and concludes by repeating a Trump claim in saying, “Perhaps another apology from the New York Times, like the one they had to issue after they got the 2016 election so embarrassingly wrong, is in order.”

@PressSec name is on this, but the voice is all Trump. It also doesn’t say what it alleges is wrong in the story pic.twitter.com/bJfd2Gz5Tz
