The women came forward to tell their stories after Sunday’s presidential debate in which Trump denied having ever sexually assaulted women.
The Trump campaign condemned Stoynoff’s story as “fabricated” and the New York Times piece as “fiction” and “a completely false, coordinated character assassination”.
Trump’s lawyers threatened to sue the New York Times.
The Trump campaign distributed a letter sent to the Times’ executive editor, Dean Baquet, demanding a retraction and saying the article is “reckless, defamatory and libel per se.”
Trump’s attorney said failure to retract the piece and remove it from the newspaper’s website would leave him “no option but to pursue all available actions and remedies”.
When asked to comment on the accusations, Trump told a Times reporter that she was a “disgusting human being”.
