Who Paid For Sarah Sanders’ Six Figure Super Bowl Extravaganza?

Taylor Swift was not the only high profile Kansas City chiefs fan to enjoy incredible access to the Super Bowl in Las Vegas earlier this month. Like the pop megastar, Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) watched the game from a luxury suite and celebrated on the field. However, unlike Swift, who is dating one of the team’s star players and broke all kinds of records with her ongoing multibillion dollar tour, it’s not quite clear how (or if) Sanders and her family paid for tickets to the most expensive football game of all time.

Good ol’ Huckasleeze. Ask an average Arkansan about this and they’ll tell you they not only expect to be massively grifted by their public servants, but they like it. Also Trump is Jesus. Carlin put it best (language warning):

ETA - I have to disagree on the voting remarks, but the man was a satirist par excellence after all.

It’s likely the same people who paid for the overpriced, sleazy lectern.

Shae already “bought” a 19K lectern, to cover the expenses of her partying with her girl pals in Europe. Look for expenses for a 75K desk and a 25K laptop.

The Arkansas taxpayers are the ones paying for this.

I thought they’d finally captured Hacksaw Huckabee and the Ozark Desperados.

But I guess the gang’s still at large and on the run?

Ya gotta love that easy grin on her face. Bet her jaws ached when the photo was done.

Thanks for the reporting, Hunter.

I clicked over to see what that owner’s box looked like.

Do all these super-rich people have abominable taste? Is there a cabal of interior designers who excel in providing random signifiers of what ignorant people think of as “Ritzy”? Are they struggling to hold back laughter as they propose archways with niches containing Roman statues and multiple fireplaces surrounded by skinny tiles in random shades of gray…? And don’t forget the lighted shelving spotlighting a bunch of different pottery!

Republicans continue to think that the only legitimate role for government is as a piggy-bank for them and their party. Oh, and to use to punish those who they don’t like.

Democrats know that government exists to serve and protect THE PEOPLE.

ALL the people. Even Republicans.

Might this still be the outcome we should all anticipate?

Oh now come on. Who doesn’t have billionaire “friends” who spring for a $250,000 night out for your entire family? In Vegas. At the Super Bowl. Nothing to see here. Move along.

LOL- yes-- it’s lowbrow signifiers all the way down.

I’m guessing that I fall in the category of “above DArkansans.”

I despise everything that this grifting bitch and her shitty husband stand for and have done in a short time to this state.

The owner’s suite is something to behold.

Probably the same imaginary “friend” who paid for Drunky Brewster’s $200,000 in baseball tickets…

Ignoring ethics rules makes every day Christmas morning…

Al Capone was brought down by the IRS. I’m sure Sarah Huckabucks has paid taxes on her oversized gifts. Or not?
