President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Saturday to talk about allegations and due process.

His comments come in the wake of the resignation of two White House staffers — David Sorensen and Rob Porter. Both men have been accused of physical and emotional abuse by their ex-wives.

On Friday, Trump lamented Porter's departure, telling reporters, "he did a very good job while he was in the White House." Trump didn't mention either of Porter's ex-wives but emphasized that Porter said he was innocent.
