		</div><p>President Donald Trump has said that a New York-based advice columnist who accused him of sexually assaulting her in a department store in the mid-1990s is not his “type”.</p>
<p><em>“I’ll say it with great respect: Number one, she’s not my type. Number two, it never happened,”</em> Mr Trump told The Hill newspaper in an interview at the White House.</p>
<p>Writer E Jean Carroll has claimed that after what started as a friendly encounter with Mr Trump at Bergdorf Goodman in Manhattan in 1995 or 1996, the real estate mogul pushed her up against a wall, unzipped his trousers and forced himself on her.</p>
<p>Ms Carroll said that, in a “colossal struggle”, she pushed him off and ran from the store.</p>
<p>Mr Trump told The Hill that Ms Carroll was “totally lying” about the accusation, which he also denied earlier.</p>
<p><em>“I know nothing about this woman. I know nothing about her,”</em> he said. <em>“She is — it’s just a terrible thing that people can make statements like that.”</em></p>
<p>The allegation against Mr Trump is included in Ms Carroll’s upcoming book about the “hideous men” the Elle magazine columnist says she has encountered throughout her life.</p>
<p>Ms Carroll told CNN’s Anderson Cooper later on Monday that she was glad Mr Trump does not consider her his type. <em>“I love that,” she said. “I’m so glad I am not his type.”</em></p>
<p>Ms Carroll said there were no attendants in the dressing room area at the time of the alleged assault and she did not file a report with the New York Police Department.</p>
<p>During the 2016 presidential campaign, more than a dozen women accused Mr Trump of sexual misconduct in earlier years. Mr Trump has denied the allegations and said the women are lying.</p>
<p>The “not my type” remark is not the first time Mr Trump has disparaged an accuser.</p>
<p>In 2016, after a former magazine writer accused Mr Trump of assaulting her in 2005, he responded: <em>“She lies! Look at her, I don’t think so.”</em></p>
<p>And when another woman claimed Mr Trump groped her on a plane in the early 1980s, he said:<em> “Believe me — she would not be my first choice.”</em></p>
