White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Wednesday condemned the attempted violent attacks against former President Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton after authorities intercepted potential explosive devices that had been mailed to their homes.
In a statement, Sanders called the attempted attacks despicable and the perpetrators cowards, saying U.S. law enforcement agencies are investigating the incidents.
We condemn the attempted violent attacks recently made against President Obama, President Clinton, Secretary Clinton, and other public figures, Sanders said.
Later, Sanders said President Trump and other administration officials were closely monitoring the "ongoing situation," including threats made to CNN.

(10,418 posts)His silence on the issue only further fuels and encourages other deranged individuals who might be thinking of turning to violence. All because Trump can't set aside his ego long enough to acknowledge the humanity in his rivals.
