President Donald Trump continued an Obama tradition of issuing a proclamation to designate April as National Sexual Assault Awareness month, reports CNN.
Trump – who has been accused by 15 women of sexual assault – issued the proclamation on Friday in a statement saying:
“Sexual assault crimes remain tragically common in our society, and offenders too often evade accountability.”
He continues: “These heinous crimes are committed indiscriminately: in intimate relationships, in public spaces, and in the workplace,” the presidential proclamation from the White House states.
April has been designed as National Sexual Assault Month since 2011. Back in 2010, President Barack Obama started the tradition of issuing a proclamation to observe the month.
We’re sure if he knew that, he’d cancel April altogether.
Some 15 women have come out accusing Trump of a range of sexual abuse allegations before he became president. At least 13 women said Trump attacked them. He has denied all the claims.
