Twitter Users Slam The WH For Defending Sadler’s ‘Joke’ On John McCain: ‘F*ck Those Hypocrites’
Just two weeks after the White House and many conservatives attacked Michelle Wolf for her jokes during the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, the same people are now defending Kelly Sadler for saying John McCain’s opinions on torture don’t matter because “he’s dying anyway.”
After it was leaked that Sadler made those comments on McCain, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was pressed by the media to say whether any action was going to be taken. The press secretary refused to answer any questions and did not condemn Sadler’s comments.
On Saturday, another White House staffer took Sadler’s side.
Mercedes Schlapp said that she supports Sadler and wanted everyone to know it.

During a W.H. Comms team meeting, strategic comms director Mercedes Schlapp said: “You can put this on the record… I stand with Kelly Sadler.”
Sources tell Axios leaders spent more time focused on the leak, than that it was said in the first place. https://t.co/QEyGNShHJU

If the White House had not noticed the hypocrisy in that, Twitter users would remind them.
Here are some of the best responses from Twitter users:
[Michelle Wolf makes harmless joke about Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ lies]
—White House: WE DEMAND AN APOLOGY!![Kelly Sadler makes horrible non-joke about John McCain’s health]
—White House: I don’t think any apology is necessary. She can keep her job.
