On Thanksgiving April Ryan questioned the validity of a pie, starting #PieGate. Wednesday Sarah Huckabee Sanders embarrasses April Ryan. And even gave her a pie.
On Thursday Sarah Sanders got her back. She called her out in front of everyone and, for all intents and purposes, ended #PieGate.
It all started when Sanders tweeted a photo of a pecan pie she baked on Thanksgiving.
April Ryan’s response was, “Show it to us on the table with folks eating it and a pic of you cooking it.”
So Sanders did just that on Wednesday evening.
Sanders tweeted a photo of all of the ingredients. She even provided a caption for April Ryan.
“It’s pie time! With or without bourbon April Ryan?” then Sanders used the hashtag #piegate”

It got even better. Sanders posted a photo of the finished product with a caption.

On Thursday at a press briefing Sanders spoke directly to April Ryan and said, “I just want to say thanks, have a good week, and April, I am looking forward to having some pie with you momentarily.”

That did not end how April Ryan hoping it would.
I could go for some pie.
