Washington: US President Donald Trump has
said that people's lives are being shattered by a mere
allegation, in the wake of the resignations of two White House
aides following allegations of domestic abuse.
"Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a
mere allegation," Trump said in a tweet, after Staff Secretary
Rob Porter and speech writer David Sorensen resigned this
week.
"Some are true and some are false. Some are old and some
are new," Trump said.
"There is no recovery for someone falsely accused - life
and career are gone. Is there no such thing any longer as Due
Process?" he said.
Porter resigned from his post at the White House on
Wednesday amid abuse allegations from two ex-wives.
However, Trump had said that Porter's departure was "very
sad" and "he did a very good job while he was in the White
House.
Sorensen resigned this week after being accused of
domestic abuse by his ex-wife. He had denied the allegations
and alleged that he "was the victim of repeated physical
violence" during his marriage.
