Greedheads hire a professional prevaricator to tell them the truth

Sarah Huckabee Sanders, President Donald Trump’s former press secretary, has held discussions with Teneo, a global consulting firm started by former Clinton aides, about working together to advise corporate clients about the Trump administration, according to a former Teneo employee and two other people familiar with the matter.
Sanders would serve as an independent contractor and would not be employed by Teneo, these people said.
But she would act as a potentially valuable informal liaison who has maintained strong relationships with White House aides and other administration officials.
“They’ve got to walk into the room with someone who knows the White House,” said one of the people familiar with the arrangement. “They need someone to explain how the Trump thing operates.”
The only person on the planet with a worse reputation for dishonesty than Sarah Huckabee Sanders is Trump himself. Do they really think she will tell them the truth? Fergawdsakes, she’s running for office. She has no incentive to be honest with these people. She’ll collect a fat paycheck and stab them in the back.
And anyway, we know why they are hiring her. It’s so they can try to parlay some Trump connections into money for themselves. Even corporate America finds Trumpies too radioactive for that. The only company that will hire them now is Fox News.
