Sarah Sanders Holds Back Tears Over Boy’s Question On School Safety During White House Briefing

Sarah called on a reporter who said he had a “young guest” with a question.

The young boy had a question written down on paper about being protected during a school shooting. He asked:

“We recently had a lock down drill. One thing that affects my mental health is the worry about that me or my friends could get shot at school. Can you tell me what the administration has done and will do to prevent these senseless tragedies?”

Sanders was clearly shaken up in her answer. Holding back tears, Sanders’ voice quivered as she said, “I think, as a kid, and certainly as a parent, there’s nothing that could be more terrifying for a kid to go to school and not feel safe. I’m sorry that you feel that way.”

"I think that as a kid and certainly as a parent, there is nothing that could be more terrifying for a kid to go to school and not feel safe."
