White House press secretary Sarah Sanders offered a roundabout defense of Trump's alleged doubts about the authenticity of the "Access Hollywood" tape. And she seemed to kind of, sort of suggest Trump didn't think the tape was a fake. The Times story doesn't detail what, exactly, Trump believes to be false or inauthentic in the "Access Hollywood" tape or why he didn't make these claims when the tape initially appeared more than a year ago. The idea that somehow, someway an audio tape that no one -- up to and including Trump -- questioned when it was revealed is fake. Trump's evidence for this claim -- at least the evidence he has made public -- is zilch.
