Trump blames Democrats for planting stories of sexual misconduct

Washington D.C. [United States], December 12 (ANI): United States President Donald Trump has stated that plethora of sexual misconduct allegations levelled against him are "false" and blamed the Democrats for plotting against him.

Despite thousands of hours wasted and many millions of dollars spent, the Democrats have been unable to show any collusion with Russia - so now they are moving on to the false accusations and fabricated stories of women who I don't know and/or have never met. FAKE NEWS!, Trump, jotted down, in a Tweeter post.

The president also ridiculed a prominent Democratic senator, as a "lightweight."

President Trump lashed out at Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand for coming to his office "begging" for donations, and as someone who "would do anything for them."

Trump tweeted, "Lightweight Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a total flunky for Chuck Schumer and someone who would come to my office "begging" for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them), is now in the ring fighting against Trump. Very disloyal to Bill & Crooked-USED!"

This comes in the backdrop of three women who previously accused Trump of sexual harassment shared their stories in an interview on NBC and at a press conference in New York.

The women - Jessica Leeds, Samantha Holvey and Rachel Crooks - urged Congress to investigate Trump's behavior.
