President Donald Trump responded in a statement today to a serious accusation of sexual assault against him by writer E. Jean Carroll.

In his statement sent out by the White House this afternoon, Trump says, “I’ve never met this person in my life. She is trying to sell a new book––that should indicate her motivation.” (The piece includes a photograph identifying Carroll, her then-husband, and Donald and Ivana Trump together.)

The statement decries “fake news” from a “dying publication” and says, “Shame on those who make up false stories of assault to try to get publicity for themselves.”

It concludes by saying, “If anyone has information that the Democratic Party is working with Ms. Carroll or New York Magazine, please notify us as soon as possible. The world should know what’s really going on. It is a disgrace and people should pay dearly for such false accusations.”
