Several Jewish leaders have said President Trump is not welcome in Pittsburgh, where 11 people were killed while worshipping at a synagogue

Asked if President Trump has done enough to denounce white nationalism on the heels of an anti-Semitic attack, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders wouldn’t say outright, but said Trump has denounced racism, hatred, and bigotry.

“The President has denounced racism, hatred, and bigotry in all forms on a number of occasions,” she said, noting that the administration will “continue to do that.”

Sanders also said that the President wants to go to Pittsburgh to “show support,” adding that the Tree of Life Rabbi “said that he is welcome” there, despite calls from some groups for him not to travel to Pittsburgh.
