You were so certain before. Now you need to dig more.
Trump put forward the witness in the NY Post, no less. That is tacit admission by Trump that he was on the plane. The character of the witness is relevant, but not to the fact that Trump was on the plane.
Donald Trump’s campaign says a British man is countering claims that the GOP presidential nominee groped a woman on a cross-country flight more than three decades ago.
Which is a stretch from “Trump camp puts forward..” The line “Trump camp puts forward witness to refute sex assault claim” is from article editors. An statement which is not supported by content in the articles. Even democraticunderground.com is stating “Donald Trump’s campaign says a British man is countering claims..” though the byline says “Trump camp puts forward witness to refute sex assault claim”
Basically Trump’s campaign is saying that this person here disagrees with Leeds’ claim.. without taking any position or making any statements themselves as to whether he was on the plane or not, whether he ever met the woman or not. The semantics on the statement are important.
