Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders painted a dystopian portrait of the country in her rebuttal to U.S. President Joe Biden's State of the Union address Tuesday night, leaning heavily into Republican culture war issues and accusing Biden of pursuing "woke fantasies."
Sanders' speech was a reintroduction for the former press secretary, who as Trump's chief spokesperson scaled back daily televised briefings after repeatedly sparring with reporters who aggressively questioned her. With her speech, GOP leaders gave a platform to a figure linked closely to Trump, who remains influential within the party even as Republicans question how much of a hindrance his quest to return to the White House has become. The star turn for Sanders also puts the spotlight on the nation's youngest governor at a time when recent polling suggests that even many Democrats view the 80-year-old Biden's age as a liability.
But since the election, Sanders has mostly avoided weighing in on Trump, who endorsed her bid for governor and was featured in her campaign materials. Sanders hasn't said whether she plans to endorse Trump, who's making a third bid for president.
