Sanders – a mother of three – was one of the few remaining people on President Trump’s staff who also worked on his campaign. Her tenure as press secretary is marked by her fierce defense of the President’s and his administration’s integrity. Sanders succeeded Sean Spicer who left the White House midway through 2017.
