Holy Crap..did you see the people magazine story? Reporter Assaulted by Trump

http://people.com/politics/donald-trump-attacked-people-writer/?xid=socialflow_twitter_peoplemag



"We walked into that room alone, and Trump shut the door behind us. I turned around, and within seconds he was pushing me against the wall and forcing his tongue down my throat.

Now, I’m a tall, strapping girl who grew up wrestling two giant brothers. I even once sparred with Mike Tyson. It takes a lot to push me. But Trump is much bigger — a looming figure — and he was fast, taking me by surprise and throwing me off balance. I was stunned. And I was grateful when Trump’s longtime butler burst into the room a minute later, as I tried to unpin myself.



The butler informed us that Melania would be down momentarily, and it was time to resume the interview.

I was still in shock and remained speechless as we both followed him to an outdoor patio overlooking the grounds. In those few minutes alone with Trump, my self-esteem crashed to zero. How could the actions of one man make me feel so utterly violated? I’d been interviewing A-list celebrities for over 20 years, but what he’d done was a first. Did he think I’d be flattered?"

What a complete and utter jackass. No words.
If last week's story didn't have her looking for a good lawyer, this one will.
In celebrity gossip world, People magazine is the one that publishes the verified truth.

to trickle forth.

It's unforgivable what that man has done to enhance his ego, from sexual abuse to cheating people everywhere.




Too many of us females have incurred such assholes. I once even had a preacher physically "come on" to me. They're everywhere...so glad nice men outnumber them.

Lots of credibility - she mentions how this is only such assault she has experienced in all her career of mingling with many celebrities
