Witnesses?
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said that they would be issuing eye witness accounts. These accounts from eye witnesses would refute the claims of Trump’s accusers.
It was yet to be known what accounts Huckabee Sanders was talking about. “In terms of the specific eyewitness accounts, there have been multiple reports; I’d be happy to provide them to you after the briefing is completed,” Huckabee Sanders said.
No response was giving to those who asked for details from eyewitnesses. This won’t have been the first time an eyewitness came forward in Trump’s defense.
In 2016 during the election campaign Jessica Leeds accused Trump of kissing and groping her on a plane. This allegedly occurred in the 1970s.
Anthony Gilberthorpe claimed he was on that flight. He spoke as a witness and referring to Leeds said “she wanted to marry him.” Gilberthorpe was born in Britain.
“If he was on the airplane, he was 17 years old, a British citizen, paying first class. I don’t think so. It’s one of those [instances of] somebody trying to get in on the story,” Leeds said
She said she never own a white pantsuit, Gilberthorpe said she had on one when giving an account of that day.
Crooks said she wanted Trump to release footage of the day he kissed her at the Trump Tower in 2005. “Let’s get that out,” she said. “I’d be more than happy for [Trump] to let that surface.”
This will certainly be a big issue for Trump. How big was unknown, it could all depends on if Congress see the accusations as credible.
