White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said this afternoon that the allegations of sexual harassment against President Trump are a settled subject because he addressed them during the campaign. "We feel strongly the people of this country addressed it when they elected Donald Trump as president,” she said.

She was responding to a comment by Sen. Al Franken about the "irony that I am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape about his history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office," made during a speech announcing his resignation.
