薩拉·桑德斯（Sarah Sanders）
自川普上任，諸多高級官員因各種原因離職或被離職，原白宮新聞發言人肖恩·斯派塞上任半年即無奈離開白宮。

其個人能力固然可圈可點，但她的“成功”亦離不開強大的家族政治背景。
Sanders was born on August 13, 1982, in Hope, Arkansas, the youngest child and only daughter of Mike Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas.
1982年8月13日，薩拉·桑德斯出生於美國阿肯色州霍普市，父親Mike Huckabee是阿肯色州前州長，她是家中的唯一的女兒，也是最小的孩子。
桑德斯的父親在2008年第一次競選總統
Huckabee announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination in the 2016 presidential election,in Hope, Arkansas, on May 5, 2015. It was his second run for the U.S. presidency. He suspended his campaign on February 1, 2016 and became one of Donald Trump's most ardent supporters.
2015年5月5日，Mike Huckabee在阿肯色州霍普市宣佈自己將代表共和黨參加2016美國大選，這是他第二次參與總統選舉（第一次是2008年）。2016年2月1日，Huckabee宣佈退選，轉而支持特朗普。
Following the 2016 U.S. presidential election, Huckabee met with president-elect of the United States Donald Trump. It was reported that Trump offered Huckabee the position of United States Ambassador to Israel.Huckabee denied the reports. He told Fox News that a possible cabinet appointment for himself was discussed but that he turned the offer down, saying, "I'm not sure it was the right fit.
在2016大選結束後，Huckabee和勝選的川普進行了會面。有媒體報道，川普給他提供了駐以色列大使的崗位，但Huckabee否認了相關報道，他告訴福克斯新聞，川普確實有意讓其在新政府任職，但自己拒絕了相關邀約，理由是“不確定自己是否適合。”
雖然Huckabee本人沒有在川普政府內任職，但卻把自己的女兒薩拉·桑德斯“送”到了權力中心。

Sanders's introduction to politics began as a child, when her father first ran for the United States Senate in 1992.
1992年，薩拉·桑德斯的父親第一次競選參議員，這是尚為孩童的桑德斯第一次接觸政治。
Sanders got her start in politics as a field coordinator for her father's 2002 re-election campaign for governor of Arkansas. She was a regional liaison for congressional affairs at the U.S. Department of Education under President George W. Bush. She also worked as a field coordinator for President Bush’s re-election campaign in Ohio in 2004.
2002年，在父親Huckabee參與阿肯色州州長連任競選時，桑德斯正式介入政治。在小布什當政期間，她是美國教育部國會事務的地區聯絡人，2004年，小布什在俄亥俄州為自己的第二任期拉票，桑德斯任現場協調員。

藉助父親強大的政治影響力，桑德斯在父親擔任州長的十餘年裡，參與了眾多共和黨大佬的競選和行政工作。
In 2016, after managing her father's presidential campaign, she signed on as a senior advisor for Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, handling the Trump campaign's communications for coalitions.
2016年，結束完父親的競選活動，桑德斯在川普競選團隊中任高級顧問，主要負責選舉相關的通訊聯絡工作。
2016年6月，Sanders在新聞發佈會上指責媒體惡意傳播有關川普的假新聞，她援引CNN一名製片人被拍的視頻，視頻中該製片人承認CNN關於“川普通俄”的報道完全是胡扯，一切都是為了收視率。
On July 21, 2017, following Spicer's announcement that he was going to resign, newly appointed White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci announced that Sanders would take the role of White House press secretary. Sanders is the third woman to hold the role of White House Press Secretary after Dee Dee Myers in 1993 and Dana Perino in 2007.
2017年7月，在肖恩·斯派塞宣佈辭職後，新上任的白宮通訊聯絡主任Anthony Scaramucci宣佈薩拉·桑德斯將升任白宮新聞發言人，她也是繼Dee Dee Myers（1993）和Dana Perino（2007）後第三個擔任此職位的女性。
