Once again, Sean Spicer has to make stuff up as he goes along.
[emphasis added]
Really? Trump droned his way through a prepared statement a week ago. I'm not finding anything since then.

Background:
A Jewish Reporter Got to Ask Trump a Question. It Didn’t Go Well. (The New York Times, 2/17/2017)
When President Trump called on him [Jake Turx, reporter for an Orthodox Jewish weekly] at a news conference on Thursday, saying he was looking for a “friendly reporter,” Mr. Turx was prepared. He had spent an hour crafting a question about a recent surge of anti-Semitism, with a preamble that he hoped would convey his supportive disposition toward Mr. Trump.
Another example of what happens when an wholly inept, thoroughly unprepared individual takes over the Presidency of the United States. Mr. Turx pitched Trump a softball, gave him an opportunity to denounce the increasing number of bomb threats phoned into Jewish community centers in no uncertain terms.
But no. The president with the emotional development of a 6 year old made it all about him.
Now you'll find headlines that proclaim "White House denounces threats...", but if you read the articles, you won't find a quote attributed to Donald Trump.
