Sarah Sanders’ decision to leave the White House came as a shock to many, but she likely won’t be gone from the public eye for long. Sanders could be planning a big political move in the near future.
Reports say that Sarah Sanders may be planning the launch of her very own campaign for public office.
Gubernatorial aspirations
Breitbart reports:
Departing White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders is “extremely serious” about a potential Arkansas gubernatorial run, according to a report from Politico.
Sanders would be running against incumbent Republican Asa Hutchinson, so the former press secretary would definitely have the name recognition advantage.
Politico reports:
Sanders and her allies have started making calls to donors and Republican operatives in the state.
The machine is being built and seeing Sanders in a governor’s position would definitely be something special.
Donald Trump also indicated that Sanders is considering a run for public office, saying that “I have a feeling she’s going to be running for a certain gubernatorial position.”
Trump also issued a ringing endorsement of Sanders’ character, stating that she is a “woman who has been so good, so talented, so wonderful.”
Leaving the White House
Sarah Sanders made it clear that leaving the Trump administration will be a hard move to make.
Breitbart reports: “Sanders thanked the president for the ‘honor of a lifetime’ and told the crowd that she looks forward to spending more time with her children.”
Being a press secretary for any president would be a significant achievement, but being a press secretary in the historic Trump administration is the job of a lifetime.
With Sanders gearing up to campaign for governor in Arkansas, the question now remains; who will fill her empty spot in the White House?
