Trump’s Moral Scandal Continues As Women Claim Inappropriate Touch By Him
MEP: US presidential nominee Donald Trump is facing a series of allegations after two women claimed of inappropriate sexual contact by the billionaire businessman from New York, according to US media outlets.
The accusations in articles published on Wednesday in which they have noted of having touched them in an inappropriate manner, adding to the growing list of women who say Trump has insensitively treated them as objects over several decades.
It’s been a rough week for Trump’s supporters, and things don’t seem to be getting any easier.
One of the women, Jessica Leeds, appeared on camera on the New York Times’ website to recount how Trump grabbed her breasts and tried to put his hand up her skirt on a flight to New York in or around 1980.
The second woman, Rachel Crooks, described how Trump “kissed me directly on the mouth” in 2005 outside the elevator in Trump Tower in Manhattan, where she was a receptionist at a real estate firm.
This comes after the release of a 2005 tape in which Trump is heard making vulgar comments about women and having a conversation about trying to have sex with a married woman.
The Trump campaign has denied many of the allegations made against him, and called the Times article “a completely false, coordinated character assassination.”
“It is absurd to think that one of the most recognizable business leaders on the planet with a strong record of empowering women in his companies would do the things alleged in this story, and for this to only become public decades later in the final month of a campaign for president should say it all,” Trump spokesman Jason Miller said in a statement.
