Sarah Sanders just held a big press briefing. It was big, because SO MUCH has happened over the last few days, so there’s a lot of ground to cover.
She STRONGLY condemned the horrific shooting that took place over the weekend…
.@PressSec: This atrocity was a chilling act of mass murder, act of hatred and above all, it was an act of evil. Anti-semitism is a plague to humanity and it is responsible for many of the worst horrors in human history. https://t.co/4H2ySFbTVa pic.twitter.com/ODzfoYF6gv

"[The president] adores Jewish Americans as part of his own family. The president is the grandfather of several Jewish grandchildren. His daughter is a Jewish American and his son-in-law is a descendent a holocaust survivors," @PressSec says https://t.co/4H2ySFbTVa pic.twitter.com/op6K3o0X5q

…and basically spanked the press on every front. (Side note: I’m SO GLAD she pointed out that Trump is the grandfather of several Jewish grandchildren. MSM conveniently ignores that on the regular.)
ANYWHOOOOO. Here’s more:

Reporter: Jewish leaders in the Pittsburgh area have said the president's visit is not welcome unless and until he denounces fully white nationalism. Does the White House believe the president has done enough to denounce white nationalism? https://t.co/4H2ySFbTVa pic.twitter.com/ULUM1g9SLf

I am SO SICK of the “white nationalism” crap. How many times does he need to denounce it? MSM acts like Trump is friends with Farrakhan or something.

Why is “Trump caused this” ALWAYS the frame of their questions? It’s getting really old.
Good bless Sarah Sanders.
