A List of Women Who Have Accused Donald Trump of Sexual Misconduct
and the Trump Campaign's Explanations [Updating]This week, six women came forward with specific allegations of sexual assault against Donald Trump, adding their voices to a growing chorus of women who say they were violated by the Republican presidential nominee. And with more women reportedly preparing to come forward tomorrow, it’s anyone’s guess what number—if any—will be the one that finally breaks Katrina Pierson.
The outpour began Friday, when the Washington Post published footage of Donald Trump talking with Access Hollywood host Billy Bush about sexually assaulting women on the strength of his celebrity. “I grab ‘em right by the pussy,” Trump said, telling Bush he liked to carry Tic Tacs with him in case he felt like forcibly kissing someone. “I’ve got to use some Tic Tacs, just in case I start kissing her,” Trump said. “You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful—I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.”
In a subsequent apology video, and again during the second presidential debate, Trump repeatedly referred to the exchange as “locker room talk.” When Anderson Cooper asked if he’d ever done any of those things, Trump replied he had not. But now a host of women say he did those things and more, often using the exact same methods he bragged about in the so-called locker room chat with Bush.
