Donald Trump Has Abused DOZENS Of Women According To A New York Times Investigation

http://winningdemocrats.com/donald-trump-has-abused-dozens-of-women-according-to-a-new-york-times-investigataion/

The idea that Donald Trump has antiquated views on women is common knowledge for most people who aren’t caught up in his recent celebrity. There are plenty of examples of him rating women on their bodies including his own daughter when she was only 16 years old. On the other hand he often speaks negatively about women that he doesn’t like especially ones that are overweight or that he finds less attractive. Even during this years primary he said that Carly Fiorina couldn’t possibly win because of her face. But it turns out that his public misconduct is just the cringey tip of a truly disturbing iceberg. According to Jill Harth, one of many woman who’ve charged that Trump assaulted them:

Donald Trump stared at me throughout that meeting. He stared at me even while George was giving his presentation. … In the middle of it he says to George, “Are you sleeping with her?” Meaning me. And George looked a little shocked and he said, “Well, yeah.” And he goes, “Well, for the weekend or what?”...

Even more troubling are some of the stories told by the young girls who worked for Mr. Trump in the Ms. America pageant. They tell stories about odd grading rituals where young women were forced to stand in a line up alone with him while he inspected their bodies closely. He sometimes asked the girls to rate each other from one to ten in terms of “hotness.” It was not uncommon for some of them to leave in tears. According to Temple Taggart who was in the pageant in 1997, he sometimes kissed the girls he liked most on the mouth:

He kissed me directly on the lips. I thought, “Oh my God, gross.” He was married to Marla Maples at the time. I think there were a few other girls that he kissed on the mouth. I was like “Wow, that’s inappropriate.”
