Trump accuser E. Jean Carroll laughs off his assertion 'she's not my type.'
President Donald Trump fired back at a woman who accused him of sexual assault saying"she's not my type" and insisting the incident"never happened."
Earlier in the day, the president, who also said Carroll was"totally lying" that he sexually assaulted her, told The Hill during an interview in the Oval Office:"I'll say it with great respect: No. 1, she's not my type. No. 2, it never happened. It never happened, OK?”In the later interview with Cooper, in addition to laughing off Trump's denial, Carroll said the president's response felt quite similar to others when confronted by other women.
