During a campaign rally in Greensboro, NC, Donald Trump denied the long list of sexual misconduct allegations against him. Trump didn't just contest them, he took it one step further by suggesting his supporters could easily say the same about President Obama, practically encouraging the crowd to do so.

"Why doesn't some woman maybe come up and say what they say falsely about me, they could say about him," Trump asked. "They could say it about anybody. They could say it about anybody. He better be careful because they could say it about anybody."

Sure, Trump's right in saying someone could easily make up an allegation about Obama, but a claim requires evidence. Despite Trump's repeated denials, threat of lawsuit, and assertions that he does not even know the women who have accused him of unwanted sexual contact, there is evidence to support their allegations: Trump's own words, on tape, admitting to grabbing women without their consent. In this case, we'll take his word for it.
