Statement from President Donald J. Trump:
“Regarding the “story” by E. Jean Carroll, claiming she once encountered me at Bergdorf Goodman 23 years
ago.  I’ve never met this person in my life.  She is trying to sell a new book—that should indicate her
mo^va^on.  It should be sold in the fic^on sec^on. 
“Shame on those who make up false stories of assault to try to get publicity for themselves, or sell a book, or
carry out a poli^cal agenda—like Julie Swetnick who falsely accused Jus^ce Bre` Kavanaugh.  It’s just as bad
for people to believe it, par^cularly when there is zero evidence.  Worse s^ll for a dying publica^on to try to
prop itself up by peddling fake news—it’s an epidemic.
“Ms. Carroll & New York Magazine:  No pictures?  No surveillance?  No video?  No reports?  No sales
a`endants around??  I would like to thank Bergdorf Goodman for confirming they have no video footage of
any such incident, because it never happened.
“False accusa^ons diminish the severity of real assault. All should condemn false accusa^ons and any actual
assault in the strongest possible terms.
“If anyone has informa^on that the Democra^c Party is working with Ms. Carroll or New York Magazine,
please no^fy us as soon as possible.  The world should know what’s really going on. It is a disgrace and p
eople should pay dearly for such false accusa^ons.”
