President Trump reportedly views White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders as being "weak," and is said to have held that view since the April White House Correspondents' Association Dinner.  According to the New York Times, it is because "Ms. Sanders sat at the head table listening to a brutal roast of her by a comedian, without getting up to walk out in protest."  That comedian was Michelle Wolf and her Sanders-related jokes included, "I actually really like Sarah. I think she's very resourceful. She burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smokey eye. Like maybe she's born with it, maybe it's lies. It's probably lies."  Sanders later said that Wolf's jab "says more about her than it does about me."  That is much the same response the press secretary gave after she was asked to leave the Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Virginia on Friday night by its owner due to Sanders' involvement in the Trump administration.  As news of the incident spread, Sanders tweeted, "Her actions say far more about her than about me."  Trump tweeted on the subject as well, saying on Monday, "The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders."
"I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!" he further wrote.
