MS. SANDERS<\/strong>: As we\u2019ve said many times before, I\u2019m not going to get into back-and-forth on political endorsements from the podium, so I\u2019m not going to weigh in on a specific race ahead of time at this point.<\/p>\n REPORTER<\/strong>: Thanks, Sarah. I want to follow up on that, because as he mentioned, Judge Moore said homosexuality should be illegal. He said that Sandy Hook was some sort of divine retribution. He said Keith Ellison should not be permitted to serve in Congress because he\u2019s a Muslim. So without asking about the specifics of the race, does President Trump share any of those views that I just mentioned? And if not, why does he think this person is fit to be a U.S. senator?<\/p>\n MS. SANDERS<\/strong>: Not that I\u2019m aware of. I have not taken a deep dive on every comment that the Senate nominee has made. But I certainly know where the President stands on those issues, and wouldn\u2019t see any parallel between the two of them on that front.<\/p>\n REPORTER<\/strong>: Are there any beliefs a candidate could hold, or actions a candidate can take that, that if he were still a Republican, the President would not endorse him?<\/p>\n MS. SANDERS<\/strong>: I\u2019m not going to get into every potential hypothetical that any potential candidate may or may not have over the course of the time that the President is the president. I know where the President stands on specific issues \u2014 that\u2019s what I can speak out \u2014 not somebody else that\u2019s a candidate for another office that\u2019s not here.<\/p>\n REPORTER<\/strong>: I just want to follow up on Roy Moore comments. I know you don\u2019t want to talk about the race, but from the podium do you want to at least condemn some of those sentiments that you said the President, to your knowledge, does not share?<\/p>\n MS. SANDERS<\/strong>: I would certainly say we don\u2019t agree with those comments. But in terms of whether or not I\u2019m going to get into the back-and-forth over another candidate, we\u2019re here to focus on the President, the President\u2019s agenda, and those are the questions and the people that I can answer for.<\/p>\n The post WH Press Secretary: \u2018We Don\u2019t Agree\u2019 with Roy Moore\u2019s Beliefs on Homosexuality, Muslims<\/a> appeared first on Towleroad<\/a>.<\/p>\n
