On the campaign trail, Trump called all his accusers"liars" offering"totally made-up nonsense to steal the election." He also issued a statement denying Zervos' allegations and retweeted a message calling them"a hoax."Appeals judges last monthuntil the state's highest court rules on Trump's argument that presidents aren't subject to state court lawsuits while in office.
