White House press secretary Sarah Sanders on Friday confirmed that Kelly Sadler, the top White House aide accused of joking about Sen. John McCain's death in a staff meeting Thursday, is still employed by the administration. But Sanders otherwise repeatedly declined to comment on the reported remark, or how President Trump views McCain, who is being treated for brain cancer.
As The Hill first reported and other publications later confirmed, Sadler, in a conversation about McCain's disapproval of Mr. Trump's pick to run the CIA, said, "It doesn't matter, he's dying anyway." But Sanders declined to comment further, and only divulged Sadler's employment status after she was pressed about it a second time.
"I'm not gonna' comment on an internal staff meeting," Sanders said multiple times, when reporters prodded her as to whether the White House believes it should address those remarks.

Of course she is, and I have it on good authority that she will be getting a pay increase, as well she should!
We are supposed to believe McCain is on his deathbed, and it is being used politically. He or his spokespeople are lashing out at conservatives nearly daily- but if anyone says anything at all then they are being insensitive to a dying man.
BS if he is well enough to run his mouth, then he is well enough to take the backlash. Shame on him for trying to play the cancer card like it was a race card. If he can no longer take it he needs to quit dishing it out.
This aide needs to keep her job, she didn’t say anything wrong to begin with, and it didn’t seem to be a joke to me, seemed like she was pointing out facts...McCain no longer has his power, he is dying. Truth.
Hmmmmm...could be!
King Lear and his favorite daughter come to mind.
Guess what.... the man is dying.
