President Donald Trump dramatically escalated his attacks on two women who have accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct, saying the accusations are part of a “Democratic con game.” During a photo opportunity with the president of Colombia at the United Nations on Tuesday, Trump argued that a California professor’s claim that a teenage Kavanaugh held her down on a bed, put his hand over her mouth and tried to remove her clothes was “totally unsubstantiated.” Trump noted that he saw an interview with Kavanaugh and his wife on Fox News Monday night where Kavanaugh said he “never sexually assaulted anyone.” Trump also called Kavanaugh a “high quality person” and argued that Democrats are “playing a con game.” “He’s never had any charges like this,” Trump said.
