When asked about the payment during a press briefing, Sanders falsely suggested that Trump had already personally addressed the affair allegations, and accidentally revealed that he won the case in arbitration:
Look, the president has addressed these directly and made very well clear that none of these allegations are true. This case has already been won in arbitration. And anything beyond that, I would refer you to the presidents outside counsel.
