Donald Trump used a campaign speech in North Carolina “to attack the women accusing him of sexual assault or unwelcome advances as fame-seekers and liars, while portraying himself as the victim of a vast conspiracy on the part of the news media and Hillary Clinton’s campaign,” the New York Times reports.
“Speaking at a rally here, Mr. Trump dismissed as ‘total fiction’ the accounts of a growing number of women who say he groped them or made unwanted sexual advances. But he offered no evidence to cast doubt on their allegations.”
Instead, Trump assailed their motives, suggesting that they might have been paid off. He also said they were unattractive.
Politico says Trump “intimated a woman who accused him of sexually assaulting her was not attractive enough to have drawn his interest, part of a broader attack on the integrity and physical appearance of multiple women who’ve come forward this week to accuse the GOP presidential nominee of sexual assault.”
