Sanders, who announced her resignation earlier this month, has been replaced by Stephanie Grisham, a former spokeswoman for first lady Melania Trump.
account, outgoing White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said she was preparing to leave the West Wing with her"head held high" and called the opportunity to serve the Trump administration the"privilege of a lifetime." Some on Twitter jumped at this final opportunity to criticize those claims.
"Today I'll walk out the gates of the White House for the last time as Press Secretary with my head held high," the outgoing press secretary said."It's been the honor and privilege of a lifetime to work with President [Donald Trump] and his amazing team the last three and a half years. You're the best. Thank you!"
Sanders, whose last day was Friday, attached a photograph showing a room full of White House staff surrounding her as Trump appeared to give a speech. Like many of Sanders' posts, her online farewell soon racked up thousands of negative comments that pilloried her tenure as press secretary. At least one of them came from an elected official."You both suck," wrote Rosie O'Donnell, whom Trump has repeatedly mocked and ridiculed.
