They knew exactly what was coming. It just didn’t occur to them what the reaction would be. They don’t think that far ahead. In their zeal to spew out their hatred, they don’t stop and think ahead. They hired her because she would fire the ammunition - they made the bullets.

They hate @PressSec Sarah Huckabee Sanders because she represents every aspect of American womanhood that we admire: intelligence, grace, empowerment, patriotism, and beauty. The troll who trashed her at the #WHCD was too dim to memorize her own “jokes.” She had to read them.
Mike Huckabee had a few twitter comments as well.
It wasn't that they didn't think ahead. It just never occurred to them that anyone would see anything wrong with this. No one that they associate with professionally or personally would have been offended.
