周二，川普在社交媒體網(wǎng)站推特上發(fā)文，否認(rèn)認(rèn)識(shí)任何一名指控他的女性。

Trump wrote that the Democrats have been unable to prove his presidential election campaign worked with Russia. He added that "they are moving on to the false accusations and fabricated stories of women who I don't know and/or have never met."

川普寫道，民主黨無法證實(shí)他在總統(tǒng)競(jìng)選中同俄羅斯勾結(jié)。他補(bǔ)充說，“他們現(xiàn)在轉(zhuǎn)向了這些虛假的指控和這些婦女所捏造的故事。我不認(rèn)識(shí)這些婦女，也從沒見過她們。”

Trump also criticized New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a Democrat. On Monday, Gillibrand told CNN she believed Trump's accusers. She said many of their stories "are heartbreaking."

川普還批評(píng)了紐約參議員、民主黨人克里斯汀·吉利布蘭德(Kirsten Gillibrand)。周一，吉利布蘭德對(duì)CNN表示，她相信川普的指控者。她說，她們的很多故事都“讓人心碎。”

On Twitter, Trump called Gillibrand a "lightweight." He said she has "begged" him for campaign donations "and would do anything for them."

川普在推特上稱吉利布蘭德是一個(gè)“小人物”。川普說，她向他“乞求”競(jìng)選捐款，“并愿意為此做任何事情。”

The letter noted that "at least 17 women have publicly accused the president of sexual misconduct." It said "The American people deserve a full inquiry into the truth of these allegations. The president's own remarks appear to back up the allegations...(He) feels at liberty to perpetrate such conduct against women. We cannot ignore the multitude of women who have come forward with accusations against Mr. Trump."

信中指出，“至少有17名女性公開指責(zé)總統(tǒng)存在性行為不端。”信中還說，“應(yīng)當(dāng)為了美國(guó)人民，對(duì)這些指控的真相進(jìn)行全面調(diào)查。總統(tǒng)自己的言論似乎支持了這些指控......他覺得自己可以自由地對(duì)女性實(shí)施這種行為，我們不能忽視多位已經(jīng)出面指控川普先生的女性。”

The letter invites Trump to provide evidence that will show he did not do what the women accuse him of doing.

這封信要求川普提供證據(jù)，證明他沒有做過被這些女性指控的行為。

Three women who accused Trump last year of making unwanted sexual advances repeated their claims on Monday. They called on Congress to investigate. They noted that many other powerful men have been punished recently for their mistreatment of women.

去年指控川普做出不當(dāng)性騷擾的三名女性周一再次重申了她們的指控。她們呼吁國(guó)會(huì)進(jìn)行調(diào)查。她們指出，最近很多有權(quán)勢(shì)的男性因?yàn)殄e(cuò)誤對(duì)待女性而受到了懲罰。

During the 2016 election campaign, at least 12 women accused Trump of sexual misconduct. He denied all of the accusations.
