Donald Trump may not be happy White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is leaving her post at the end of the month, but a lot of Twitter users are very gleeful indeed.
The president announced Sanders’ departure in two tweets, in one of which he suggested she might want to consider running for governor in her home state of Arkansas.
After 3 1/2 years, our wonderful Sarah Huckabee Sanders will be leaving the White House at the end of the month and going home to the Great State of Arkansas....

....She is a very special person with extraordinary talents, who has done an incredible job! I hope she decides to run for Governor of Arkansas - she would be fantastic. Sarah, thank you for a job well done!

Some people had questions for the president.
Did you let Sarah Huckabee know she is leaving?

Others just wanted to reminisce on their fondest memories of Sanders’ time in the White House.
Remember that time…

You openly admitted on record that you make sh*t up and deceive the public!
