U.S. President Donald Trump is weighing in on the latest controversy surrounding his Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

Kavanaugh has been accused of sexual assault by college professor Christine Blasey.

Blasey says the incident happened more than 30 years ago when they were both teenagers.

Kavanaugh has denied the allegations.

On Friday, Trump challenged Blasey and her account, tweeting that if the attack was as she claims, she would have filed charges.

Trump says Kavanaugh is under attack but radical left wing politicians.

Negotiations continue over whether Ford will testify next week.

She is asking for certain conditions to be met, including that Kavanaugh not be in the same room.
