Trump Dismisses ‘Rape, Pedophilia’ Allegations After White House Shooting

US President Donald Trump has forcefully denied being a rapist or pedophile during a CBS News interview following the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, DC. He reacted angrily to claims surfaced in the shooter’s manifesto that labelled him a “pedophile, rapist and traitor,” calling the accusations “crap from some sick person” and chastising journalists for reading the passage aloud. Trump praised reporters for their calm handling of the attack, confirmed the event will be rescheduled and recounted his own and First Lady Melania’s immediate reaction when gunfire erupted near their table.
