White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders went up against CNN’s Jim Acosta Wednesday, saying that President Trump has great accomplishments that voters will recognize in the midterms.
“We would love for you to talk about that more.”

“One other quick thing on Speaker Ryan’s announcement,” Acosta said. “There are some fears on Capitol Hill – and we understand some in the White House – that a Democratic wave is coming and could sweep the Republicans out of power in the House and that could potentially lead to impeachment proceedings that the Democrats could bring forward. What is the president’s thinking on that, what is your thinking on that?”
“Like I said earlier, we are very confident in the record that we have and the very successful first year and a a half that the president’s had in office and we expect to talk about that a lot,” Sanders responded. “We’d love for you guys to talk about that more too and we’d be happy to send you talking points if you need some guidance.”
“Do you think a wave is come something?” Acosta asked.
“We certainly think we have a great story to tell,” she replied “We think America will be ready to listen to that and certainly has felt the impact certainly from an economic standpoint for this administration and we’re proud of that.”
