Related: About this forumWatch ex-Trump employee Barbara Res on CNN: She believes the women.
http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/13/politics/barbara-res-trump-assault-allegations-new-day-interview/(CNN)Barbara Res worked for Donald Trump for 18 years as a construction executive, and asked Thursday if she believed the allegations of sexual misconduct and assault against him, she was frank.
"I do believe it. Yes, absolutely," Res told CNN's Alisyn Camerota in an interview on "New Day." "He's a blatant sexist."
"I saw him be aggressive in business, and throw his weight around and use the fact that he had power. And I think sexual assault and sexual harassment are really about the abuse of power -- 'I can do this to you because I am who I am' -- I do think it went to his head. So much else went to his head that it does make sense to me that he would do something like that," Res, who is supporting Hillary Clinton for president.

Res also explained why she is supporting Clinton for president.
"First of all, everyone knows he has no experience. I mean, the idea that he would be president is just ridiculous. I have other developers I worked for who were just smarter than he is -- and I wouldn't vote for them for president either. And I mean, you need to have some experience and some knowledge of government," she said.
"But the worst thing about Trump and the reason not to vote for him, is his temperament," she said. "He flies off the handle, and he attacks viciously. You know, it's like shooting someone and having a nuclear bomb come back at you."
