Facing the White House press following an aide making a "joke" about Arizona Sen. John McCain "dying," spokesperson Sarah Huckabee Sanders refused to address or condemn the comment, saying she "would not get into it," and dismissing it as a leak.
Asked whether White House aide Kelly Sadler "still has a job," Sanders replied, "I'm not going to comment on an internal staff meeting."
Pressed again whether the White House believes the remark should be condemned, Sanders was dismissive, stating, "I'm not going to validate a leak one way or the other."
