White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders has two weeks left as President Donald Trump’s leading spokesperson after her boss announced her resignation late last week on Twitter. In doing so, Sanders and the president met with reporters to further explain her departure having served as press secretary for 1.9 years.

“This has been the honor of a lifetime,” Sanders said. “I’ve loved every minute of it. … It’s truly the most special experience.”

Of course they always say they need to spend more time with family and get back to their roots from wherever they came. In Sanders case she and family will leave Washington, DC for Arkansas where her father republican Mike Huckabee served as governor from 1996 to 2007 and was a presidential candidate in 2008 and 2016. It doesn’t take much reading between the lines to see that Sanders will be heavily involved in President Trump’s reelection Campaign 2020.

“She is a very special person with extraordinary talents, who has done an incredible job! I hope she decides to run for Governor of Arkansas – she would be fantastic. Sarah, thank you for a job well done!”

The next governor of Arkansas will be elected in 2022 during the mid-term elections to be held that year. So Sanders has plenty of time to work for President Trump behind the scenes instead of front and center on the national stage where she really did an extraordinary job wrangling and brawling with the White House Press Corps.

One week before the first nationally televised Democratic debate, President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence will formally announce their reelection during a massive Trump Rally to be held June 18 at the Amway Center Arena in Orlando, Florida that seats about 20,000. News reports say more than 75,000 tickets have been requested by the public to attend the free Trump-Pence event in a state Trump won in 2016.

President Trump’s campaign press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said in an Orlando news story that having a ticket to the rally does not mean you will gain entry to the arena.

“There will be screens outside the venue to watch the rally once capacity is reached,” said McEnany. She also said a “Trump tailgater” would be held outside on the arena’s parking lot beginning at 10 am. Think about that for a minute – a “Trump tailgater” just like with college football games complete with charcoal grills, burgers, dogs and beer — lots of beer to get all primed and ready for a full-throttle Trump Rally.

These Trump Rallies certainly have evolved into a true cultural phenomenon. Trump’s followers – the voters – absolutely pack every Trump Rally no matter how big the venue.

The Washington Democrats hate these rallies with a passion because they cannot duplicate a similar result. Mainstream media also hates these rallies that they are forced to attend because after all it is the president of the United States and with this president they know anything can and will happen. They have to be there. But they don’t show the packed auditoriums. Their cameras are only pointed directly at the speaker’s podium and that’s it. They don’t show the huge crowds outside that could not get in. The president often takes jabs at the press covering his rallies by calling them “Fake News” which always gets a raucous roar from the crowd.

But other news agencies and social media outlets do show the depth of support this president has inside and outside the arena. It’s no secret that President Trump is popular in ways the Democrats will never see or understand.
