In January, as is now known, President Trump's legal team acknowledged that Trump "dictated" the first misleading statement put out about his son's controversial 2016 meeting with Russians at Trump Tower.
In July last year, Jay Sekulow stated on four separate occasions that Trump had nothing to do with the letter and that it all came from Don Jr:
Why should Sanders resign? Or quit?
She was hired to be a mouthpiece, and she's well suited for her job. She held the same job for her father when he was running, and Mike Huckabee may be a different kind of conservative than Donald Trump, but Sarah is repeating a lot of things that both men have said that are the same.
According to a bio I read on her, Sarah sees her job as nothing more or less than a job. What she repeats may not be what she believes, but it's her job, so she says and does what the job demands of her. Nothing more than that. Like lots of folks, Sanders tries to do her job well, and takes her work seriously.
All press secretaries do the same things she does- they have all spoken for their boss and present his views and his side of every issue. That's part of the job description.
They have all been caught in some falsification or other repeatedly. They all omit to mention stuff they know, and they all try to make their boss look as good as possible every time they talk to the press. I've watched a lot of them over the years, and they all become very adept at double-talking their way around hard questions. They have all lied once in a while, and none of them ever apologize when a lie is found out.
If Sanders quits, then that's evidence she's had enough of the job. If she doesn't, then she's still content enough to stick with it for a while longer. If the press can't pry the truth out of her, then they can't. But there's nothing that says she must tell the truth, and there's nothing that demands her to contradict her boss.
Do I believe her? Not all the time. But I think she is certainly a lot easier to watch than Spicer or any of the others who have held her job.
More power to her if she can withstand working in the continual tornado of crap that flies out of the Oval Office daily.
I admire her willingness to do a dirty job. But then, I also admire my plumber's willingness to tackle a job I wouldn't want to do myself too. Who among us would want to take her place?
I'm not fond of her, but we'd have the same result no matter who was in that position. The fish rots from the head down.
This is my opinion more or less even though I voted for "Fire her." The message won't change even if the messenger does. I met her father before and was immediately taken by him. He saw my Jimi Hendrix hoodie and we talked about the great guitarist for at least 10 minutes. He wasn't running that year, but I guess like most good politicians, he was playing me. It's hard for me to reconcile a man who I think is a pretty decent person to his daughter who I doubt has a soul.

Trump's attitude towards his staff can change on a dime. See Hope Hicks. Sanders is towing the Trump line for the time being. Whether she continues to do so is one that is based on her conscience. If she is comfortable with what she is doing, I expect her to stay in her position for a long time. Would I be comfortable doing what she does day in and day out? Hell no!
