“I Have Never Met This Woman In My Life” – Trump Denies Rape Allegation By E. Jean Carroll

President Donald Trump has responded to the rape allegations leveled against him by advice columnist, E. Jean Carroll, in graphic detail in New York Magazine.

KanyiDaily had reported that a famous 75-year-old advice columnist, E. Jean Carroll, alleged that President Trump attacked and raped her in the 1990s in a dressing room.

Carroll, who is the 16th woman to accuse Trump of sexual misconduct, gave the graphic details of the alleged rape on Friday, 21, 2019.

According to her, she was in Bergdorf Goodman when she ran into Trump that in the mid-1990s.

Trump, recognizing her as a famous advice columnist, asked for her help to buy lingerie for an unnamed woman.

Carroll, then 52, obliged and followed Trump to the lingerie department. Once they’re in the dressing room, the exchange turned violent. He overpowered her and thrust “his penis halfway — or completely, I’m not certain — inside me.”

Reacting to the rape allegation in a statement, Trump said that he’s “never met this person in my life” in reference to Carroll.

The president asked that anyone who has information that Carroll is working with the Democratic Party should “notify us as soon as possible.”

“She is trying to sell a new book — that should indicate her motivation. It should be sold in the fiction section,” Trump said in his statement.

“There is zero evidence” he said. “No pictures? No surveillance? No video? No reports? No sales attendants around? I would like to thank Bergdorf Goodman for confirming they have no video footage of any such incident, because it never happened.”

“False accusations diminish the severity of real assault and all should condemn false accusations and any actual assault in the strongest possible terms,” said Trump before a direct attack on the Democratic Party

The president asked that anyone who has information that Carroll is working with the Democratic Party should “notify us as soon as possible.”

Prior to Trump’s statement, the White House issued a statement to New York Magazine on the alleged assault, saying that Carroll’s story “is a completely false and unrealistic story surfacing 25 years after allegedly taking place and was created simply to make the President look bad.”

Meanwhile, Carroll had said that she didn’t come forward sooner because she was “receiving death threats, being driven from my home, being dismissed, being dragged through the mud, and joining the 15 women who’ve come forward with credible stories about how the man grabbed, badgered, belittled, mauled, molested, and assaulted them, only to see the man turn it around, deny, threaten, and attack them, never sounded like much fun.”
