Ladies and gentlemen, grab your popcorn because Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders just delivered a prime-time speech at the Republican National Convention that’s got everyone talking. Let’s break down the key moments and snarky jabs that have taken social media by storm.
Sanders didn’t pull any punches, aiming her critiques squarely at President Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and even First Lady Jill Biden. One zinger that’s making waves online: “When I was President Trump’s Secretary—the best job—I got the chance to take my four-year-old son Huck to Bring Your Kid to Work Day, much like Jill now drags Joe to Bring Your Husband to Work Day.” Ouch. That line has definitely hit a nerve, sparking both laughs and outrage across the internet.

Amid the serious speeches addressing the hardships faced by families under the Biden-Harris administration, Sanders brought a moment of levity. She highlighted her own achievements, proudly noting that she is the youngest governor in the country and the first woman governor in Arkansas history.
She didn’t stop there. Sanders praised Trump’s leadership, calling him “the leader our country needs” and lauding his toughness, resilience, and courage. “We can’t get him back in the White House fast enough,” she declared, making it clear where her loyalties lie.
But the heartfelt part of her speech came when she talked about Trump’s compassion, a side of him she says the mainstream media ignores. Sanders recounted her time as White House Press Secretary, detailing the relentless attacks she faced from the left. She shared anecdotes of being insulted at the White House correspondent’s dinner, kicked out of a restaurant, and even having a parent at her son’s preschool spit on her car. Through it all, she said, Trump stood by her.
“When an MSNBC host said I was unfit to be a mother, and another called me vile, not even human, and that I should be choked, MSNBC did nothing. But our president pulled me aside, looked me in the eye, and said, ‘Sarah, you’re smart, you’re beautiful, you’re tough, and they attack you because you’re good at your job.’ That’s the Donald Trump that I know,” Sanders said, painting a picture of a supportive and empowering leader.
She also took a direct shot at the left’s stance on women’s empowerment. “The left doesn’t care about empowering women; Biden and Harris can’t even tell you what a woman is. They only care about empowering themselves. But we have a president who believes in empowering every American and that our country is worth fighting for.”
Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders details how liberals who claim to want to empower women RELENTLESSLY attacked her when she was press secretary, and how it was President Trump who lifted her back up.
