Richard Hatch tells of Trump's boardroom behavior on "Celebrity Apprentice":

Donald Trump Hit On Marlee Matlin During The Celebrity Apprentice, Former Contestant Claims

“He went back and forth with Marlee,” Hatch continues. “No matter how she responded, no matter how politely, he would push it a step further with comments about her looks, and how she was making him feel, and about what he thought of her, and how happy he would be to do something with her.

“It was a lot of innuendo, far beyond the norm. It was odd and weird, and people in the boardroom would look at one another, but he didn’t care. [Matlin] was with her interpreter, Jack, and I thought, ‘Gosh, I wonder if he’s comfortable with this?'”

SNIP

Hatch says Trump even used innuendo in the presence of his daughter.

“He did it in front of Ivanka,” he says. “That was not just uncomfortable for me. It was weird. I was fascinated as a people watcher to think what could possibly be going on in that woman’s mind. He didn’t care that she was there; he didn’t seem afraid that she would hold him accountable or say anything about his boorish behavior. None of that happened. He was just that way, and it didn’t matter to him one bit that his daughter was listening in.”

If total strangers feel he is too powerful for them to object to, they probably feel the same way. He acts like he owns the women in beauty pageants - how much more does he "own" his wife and daughters? Ivanka has probably never stood up to him in her life - if she did he would go into a state of rage. And Melania - well, at least she can leave if it gets bad enough hearing all this bullshit about how he behaves.

Which is why she thinks nothing of it and dismisses it. She expects that sort of behavior.

Ugh

Really large creep factor there. A whole life of that..
