Donald Trump hasn’t moved forward on his threat to sue the women accusing him of unwanted sexual advances because he’s busy with the presidential election, his campaign manager said Sunday.

{mosads}When asked by “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd, “Why not sue them now?” Kellyanne Conway responded: “Because we’re busy winning the presidency.”

“We’re a little bit busy over here doing that,” she said.

“He’s just putting people on notice that they can’t just falsely accuse him.”

Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, opened up a rally in Gettysburg, Pa., on Saturday by promising to sue the women who have accused him of sexual misconduct.

“Every woman lied when they came forward to hurt my campaign,” Trump said.

“Total fabrication. The events never happened. Never. All of these liars will be sued after the election is over.”

At least 11 women have come forward to accuse Trump of unwanted kissing, groping or other unwanted sexual advances.

The allegations follow the surfacing of a 2005 video of Trump bragging about grabbing and kissing women without their consent.
