Huckabee Sanders: If Trump Is Racist, ‘Why Did NBC Give Him a Show for a Decade?’
BY: Cameron Cawthorne
January 16, 2018 12:32 pmWhite House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Tuesday quipped that if her boss is a racist, "why did NBC give him a show for a decade?"
The comment came as she pushed back against Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's (D., N.Y.) call for President Donald Trump to prove he is not a racist by supporting a bipartisan compromise on the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) immigration program. Trump rescinded the program last year and gave Congress six months to find a legal solution.
CBS host Stephen Colbert asked Schumer Monday about Trump's reported controversial remarks, which he has denied, during a discussion about immigration reform in the Oval Office last Thursday and whether he thought that Trump is a "racist."
