A look at the women making allegations against Trump
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Melinda McGillivray gestures as she speaks during an interview with The Associated Press, Friday, Oct. 14, 2016, in Lake Worth, Fla. McGillivray, 36, told The AP that Trump’s denial in last Sunday’s presidential debate that he had ever groped women prompted her to come forward after years of brushing off an incident from 2003. She told The Palm Beach Post for a story published on Oct. 13, that while she was backstage at a concert at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, when he grabbed her buttocks.
A number of women have come forward recently to say they were assaulted, groped or kissed without consent by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
Several have said they were moved to go public after listening to Trump boast about such behavior in a 2005 video, in which he bragged about using his fame to force himself on women.
Trump has denied the accusations of sexual misconduct and said the women are liars. He has apologized for his comments on the video, which was disclosed this month, but also dismissed them as “locker-room talk” and a distraction from the campaign.
A look at the women and their allegations:
—Summer Zervos, 41, says Trump made aggressive, unwanted sexual advances in a Beverly Hills, California, hotel room in 2007. A former contestant on “The Apprentice,” Zervos says she contacted Trump to ask for a job. He later invited her to dinner, and when she met him at his hotel, Zervos said, Trump almost immediately began kissing her and placed his hand on her breasts.
—Kristin Anderson, 46, told The Washington Post that she was sitting on a couch with friends at a New York nightclub in the early 1990s when someone reached up her skirt and touched her through her underwear. Anderson, then in her early 20s, said she pushed the hand away, turned around and recognized Trump as the man who had groped her.

—Jessica Leeds, 74, told The New York Times that Trump groped her on an airplane more than three decades ago. Leeds says the two were seated next to each other when Trump lifted the armrest separating them and began to touch her, grabbing her breasts and trying to put his hand up her skirt. Leeds called the incident an “assault.”
—Rachel Crooks says Trump kissed her without invitation in 2006 when she was a 22-year-old receptionist for a real estate firm located at Trump Tower. Crooks told the Times she was meeting Trump for the first time when he took her hand to shake it and would not let go. He began kissing her cheeks and then kissed her on the mouth, she told the paper.
—Mindy McGillivray, 36, of Palm Springs, Florida, says Trump groped her after she attended a Ray Charles concert at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in 2003. McGillivray told The Palm Beach Post she was standing with a group of people after the show and Trump came up behind her and grabbed her buttocks.
—Natasha Stoynoff, a reporter for People magazine, says Trump forced himself on her in 2005, when she was interviewing him for a feature on the one-year anniversary of his marriage to Melania Trump. Stoynoff wrote in an article published on the magazine’s website that Trump was giving her a tour of his Mar-a-Lago mansion when he said he wanted to show her a special room. He shut the door “and within seconds, he was pushing me against the wall, and forcing his tongue down my throat.”
—Temple Taggart, a former Miss Utah, says Trump kissed her on the mouth more than once when she was a 21-year-old contestant in his Miss USA beauty pageant. Taggart initially told her story to the Times in May. She said she was struck by how Trump’s comments from the 2005 video mirrored her experience.
—Jill Harth, a former business associate, told the Times that Trump put his hands under her skirt during a business dinner in 1992 and, on another occasion, tried to force himself on her. Harth sued Trump accusing him of sexual harassment in 1997. She dropped the lawsuit Trump after he settled a separate breach of contract suit.
—More than 20 former crew members, editors and contestants on Trump’s “Apprentice” reality show described a pattern of crass behavior and demeaning comments on the set. Trump repeatedly addressed women with sexist language, rated female contestants by the size of their breasts and talked about which ones he’d like to have sex with, the people told The Associated Press.

Thankfully, Mr. Trump and his campaign staff are handling this in the worst possible way for themselves – by saying these women were not attractive enough to have prompted an unlawful sexual assault by Mr. Trump against them.
Mr. Trump’s multiple personality disorders are impossible for him to suppress, so this nonsense can be expected up to November 8th.
His pathetic followers, of course, are already saying that any woman who accuses Mr. Trump of anything bad – even through he already admitted in his own voice that this is exactly how he treats women – are lying. But in the same breath, they maintain that any woman who ever accused Bill Clinton (who they cannot seem to grasp is not running for President) of anything bad are always truthful. Odd.
Twenty five percent of American women are taking medications to control their mental illness, the other seventy five percent are walking around untreated.
What, that is the most ludicrous, unsubstantiated and irrational thing, I have heard in a long time?
Is that you Donald? (Corruption)
Mahalo for your comment. You are obviously in the 75% of good men.
With a handle like “corruption” I’m assuming you are in the lower 25 percentile of the mentally fit male species. Based on that, It’s guys like you and the orange one who by their actions and nasty comments, drive women to seek help, either at the police station or the doctor’s office. I would wager that the percentage of Women born mentally ill is probably lower than men.
This deliberate stress is willfully inflicted on women by a male dominated society. Trump and “Corruption” are both the disease and a worldwide symptom. Women make up more than half the human race. Think how much more humankind could accomplish if we were not attacking each other.

I know the truth is bitterly hard to swallow but sadly you will find that women do suffer from mental illness in far greater numbers than men. If you have proof otherwise, post links to scientific journals here.
You are unbelievable and are a great example of the 25% of men that are pigs. Of course Trump is in the top 1%. I pray you are not married because no woman should be subjected to a jack!@s like you.
I pray no man ever get married. Marriage is nothing than a ticket to rob a hard working man out of half or more of his assets. I tell my children to never marry.
corruption is 100% correct. I guess all the real nut jobs that didn’t take their antidepressants are fuming and in denial and bad mouthing him. The same nut jobs like klastri, aomohoa and nanakuliboy, that look into the mirror every morning and say to themselves… “Of course I’m mentally sane, aliens told me so!” LMAO

OH let’s see. My husband is not a pig so I don’t need medication. Get the connection?? Save a woman, never get married again!!!!!! Looks like maybe you had a bad divorce and that is what you are so nasty. Guess what it takes two to make a bad marriage, so you had your part.
I am so happy for your ex wife, since she is probably off medication she needed when she was married to you!!!!!
“LMAO”
Well, good – because that’s pretty much all of you.
Any particular dispute you have with the source he referenced, or are you just interested in insulting him?
hawaiikone, they’re upset like Hilairy, they can’t handle the pressure so they flip out.
aomohoa, you sure are bitter towards men for someone that is married. Looks like you’ve upgraded your skills in life to house chores like cooking, cleaning, laundry. You should never have married, you probably would have ended up happier. And to answer you question, no I’m not divorced, I never married to begin with despite many women in my life bitterly leaving me for refusing to marry them, aka sign a contract to give away half my future assets. I don’t like legal contracts that force me to commit to one person for life.
Projecting again?
As usual, a man surrounded by women and in the public eye his entire life, has no allegations thrown at him until the waning days of a presidential campaign. Motivation? Obviously another routine liberal tactic we have seen every single campaign, right out of the liberal democrat party playbook. Did it to Newt. Did it to Bush, Did it to nearly everyone ever running. Liberals have no moral compass when it comes to denigrating anyone for anything for political gain. Never mind Bill Clinton’s “actual” RAPE and MOLESTATION of several women before and during his time as President. Factual evidence and reality, that cost him his law license and impeachment. Right alongside the entire “bimbo eruption” was Hillary Clinton, doing everything she could to denigrate each and every woman to the best of her ability. Trump is a rich man and anyone of these women could have approached him for monetary gain if they had a solid case. Now, they will gain fame, though dubiously. Many of these allegations have already proven false. But you won’t read that in the liberal press. meanwhile, wikileaks has documented Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama as lying cheats who manipulated the public’s opinion, working hand in hand with the main steam liberal biased media. Not an opinion. But facts, well documented and occurring repeatedly, on purpose, not by accident. But low information voters will never get the story from the main stream press. Ignorance is bliss.
Mr. Trump admitted his serial sexual assault in his own words and voice.
What other kind of proof does a thinking person need? Maybe multiple women coming forward after Mr. Trump lied and made them furious? The problem is that Mr. Trump – obviously at this point – is profoundly mentally ill. He is unable to control himself, and no one around him is able to talk him down.
He’s going to lose in a historic landslide.
Zealot Klastri, You being of sound mind and body and a self proclaimed attorney knows better than anyone, there is not one prosecutor that would take on any of these cases. You are a joke and a fraud, what ever happened to innocent until proven guilty. Words and actions are completely different so I have one question for you, why was it that Trump did not prove his point by groping and mishandling that pretty woman when he got of the bus after getting all fired up with their locker room talk. I think you should be checking your mental state instead of commenting on others.
Whoa !
SNAP!
klastri- As WikiLeaks dribbles additional emails of Clinton’s misdeeds – the truth will be told.
Klastri, during his reelection campaign in August 1984, President Reagan was caught saying on a hot mic “My fellow Americans, I’m pleased to tell you I just signed legislation which outlaws Russia forever. The bombing begins in five minutes.” He said it in his own voice and words. What more proof did a thinking person need to believe it was happening?
You really a pilot?
The pilot believes wikileaks, a cyber criminal extortion organization. Oh and it’s head, a Rape felon wanted in Europe for sex with a minor.
You really live in Nanakuli? You a boss? If so, I think we understand why the low IQ and the need to bully people. I bet you even have tats and a bitbull as a pet dog like all the others low IQ bullies that live in the lowest ranking school district in the entire nation.
dragoninwater, in your concerted effort to denigrate, you stoop down to lies and discredit your word. Worst school district in the nation? Not even close. Read this quote from msn.com: Mississippi had the worst schools in the country in 2013, receiving a D on Education Week’s report. The state’s K-12 achievement was particularly poor — Mississippi was only state to earn a failing grade in the category. Less than 22% of fourth and eighth grade students were deemed proficient in either math or reading, far below the 34% of students considered proficient nationwide in each age group. Poor test scores may be a product of the state’s poverty. Roughly 58% of families earned incomes that were less than 200% of the poverty level in 2013, higher than the nearly 45% of families who did nationwide. dragoninwater is a bold-faced liar. How easy was that to disprove? Very easy.
RetiredWorking, no insult towards you. Sorry you feel that way. Where does the Nanakuli Elementary school rank in the entire state of HI? According to the reports, almost dead last in the entire state along with Maili being the dead last out of 172 schools in HI. I might have exaggerated about the national level since I’m sure there might be a few spots below it but it wouldn’t surprise me if it at the bottom of the barrel with the rest of the failed schools. Also, take a look at GreatSchools.org Nanakuli comes in really really low on the national rating.

If he is a pilot for Trump he is going down in flames.
Did you ever think it was the straw that broke the camels back. ???
Maybe women are finally brave enough to say he can’t get away with it any more, just because he is Donald Trump. Maybe they were afraid of jerks who wouldn’t believe them. Maybe they were afraid of Trumps power and they would be drug through the mud by people like you. You make me sick!Such a typical low IQ or gullible Trump supporter.
Trump has been a celebrity with lots of money for many years and has been around many beautiful women and perhaps some ugly ones too, and not once did any of them come forward to accuse Trump of inappropriate touching, sexual assault, sexual harassment or anything negative until this past week. If what he is alleged to have done to these women actually happened, you would think that at least one of them would have objected when it happened and would have reported the incident to the police, but none did, not one. So why would anyone believe what they now are saying? They are not very credible.
Exactly! Secondly, the women that DID come forward are far below average for women that Trump would even want to assault! Not a single decent looking gal came forward, If anything I would expect a model or the equivalent to make a complaint and then there could be some truth, but until then, it sounds like unattractive, old, bitter, feminist types came out of the woodwork to get their 5 minutes of fame on national TV. Maybe one of them will get lucky and marry a nice guy like Rosie O’donnell. LMAO
First class all the way. I guess republicans want to give Bill Cosby some competition. lol
Same situation exactly. The only difference is everyone always thought Cosby was a good guy. Never the case with Trump.
So WHY did these women not come out after this happened ?
Sounds like pure B$ timed to slow the Real news about Clinton and her Corruption !!
Why now? Are you serious?!
Because Trump was caught on tape saying he does those things and then denied it at the debate. They came out to prove him a lier!
Because no one would believe their word against a powerful billionaire, but now that the nation is watching and the most powerful woman is dogging his azz, yes, redemption. They want to put this stink Old Fart (70) in his place.
I suppose you think Bill Cosby was innocent too??!!!
You would think if these lady were really abused as they claim Why not Sue him ? Oh that’s right it’s all a setup
Yup, great timing. Right before the election. Makes you wonder if the Clinton machine is involved.
Well trumpstah did state that he didn’t sexually assault anyone “right before the election” so when would be a good time to contradict his statement?
To satisfy your “wonder”ment…no, the Clinton machine isn’t involved.
DEny, DEflect, DEride, DEnounce, DEmonize…you, Wazdat, sarge, and lespark make it too easy to DEfine DEplorable.
Indeed, well said. The pancit press corps support you!
“To satisfy your “wonder”ment…no, the Clinton machine isn’t involved.”. Not according to Wikileaks.
You prove my case. Thank you.
Yes, the world is conspiring against Mr. Trump. This is not happening because he’s a violent predatory psychotic who has assaulted women and admitted that in his own voice on an audio tape. Rather, it’s Mrs. Clinton’s fault. That is one great legal argument.
That just about says it all.
This is the meaning of A DIRTY OLD MAN.
Obviously you are a man and have no clue how these women feel and how they are finally fed up with him getting away with anything he wants because he can.
Also a crime! If any of these allegations were true they would have filed with the PD department immediately. These allegations are felonies and are very serious in nature. Given that these women failed to come forward in the past tells me that they are liars.
Not true. Lots of sexual assault victims fail to come forward because imbeciles like you don’t believe them. It’s a big problem for women. Just read your own posts to validate that.
You really need to read more. Anything would help at this point.
For a self proclaimed lawyer and federal judge you seem to have the reading skills of a 5 year old. I specifically said they should come forward IMMEDIATELY otherwise they start to lose any credibility as time progresses. If you know anything about the law, statute of limitations or the courts for that matter, you would know that victims have a much harder time proving to the jury if they wait long periods of time to report a crime.
But then again, I wouldn’t expect you to know that because your Trump University law degree is as worthless as these nut jobs. Other news sources have already disproved their allegations and now you look like a incompetent lawyer because my original point was spot-on that these women were either paid shills or outright nut jobs.
If one makes the effort to examine the plausibility of these allegations, then the facade begins to wear off.
The testimony of these woman contain some apparent contradictions. Just read and decide for yourself as these articles will never see the light of day in the StarAdvertiser.

The truth may or may not come to light, but what’s important is that it doesn’t until after the election. In some ways it reminds me of Obamacare.
It amazes how Bill Clinton and Donald Trump are so much alike. They both treat women like play things for use at their disposal.
Yes makiki. They can go golfing together after Hillary wins.
You do realize that if Hilary wins Bill will be back in the White House, don’t you? Maybe Bill can meet HiLAIRy’s new intern and not have to worry about getting impeached let alone be put on trial since this time he’ll only be there for the free ride to raid a new crop of interns.
Pretty darn presidential!
Hillary’s in trouble.
Maybe booking a hotel in DC, November 9th, after she wins the election in a national landslide, could be her only problem.
If you’re going to her inauguration, you better make hotel reservations now. Our usual place there is the Marriott at Metro Center, and we’re paying $899 a night for that time period – more than double the normal rate. Everything is filling up fast. The Willard is sold out, along with just about everything else in that category.
Doesn’t matter who wins, the question is, what’s in it for you?
That must mean something in your mind. I think …
klastri, just give back those poor illegal Mexican saps their retainers you took! We all know HitLIARy lied to get the vote from the Mexicans. Shame on you for attending La Raza rallies in California and misleading the the uneducated and gullible some miracle US citizenship!
I would trust Mexican tap water more than you or Hilary!
Try looking into the Trump International in DC. They still have some beautiful suites available but hurry up you don’t want to miss out. I just got a tip from a reliable source saying there will be some really hot woman hanging around trying to get ahead in life at the expense of rich and powerful men so be careful as you could end up being a victim like Donald. Cant wait to party with The Trumpster.
Well, here’s your chance. Careful though, you maybe overestimating your own hotness and the rich and powerful may not be interested. Of course, if you snuggle close enough to DT, you may get a good groping.
Good luck.
No udonnome, Hillary’s okay. Donald said he would never grope a woman over 55. Anyway her stamina would rip that “flyover” right off his head. This man Donald displays all the signs of Ambient and Viagra abuse. Can we ask for a drug test?
You are are on a great roll today and I love it!
Sadly, you must not know that Viagra can’t be abused because overuse can result in seizures, an irregular heart beat or even a coma. But then again I wouldn’t expect someone like you that was educated in the lowest ranking school district in the nation to know that. Here, watch some entertaining news about Viagra abusing Hilary, she seems to show the classic symptoms, maybe she’s even a hermaphidite so Bill has to look for action from other women! https://youtu.be/OqbDBRWb63s
Yes sir … you are definitely a Trump supporter!
Is that all you got, klastri? pfffttt, for someone that got their law degree at Trump University I guess that all you could produce. Sadly, your law degree was a shill. It’s ok klastri, one day you might be able to sue Trump to get your student loan forgiven but given your lackof posting a decent rebuttal only leaves me wondering if you are even capable of suing let alone know the process to even sue someone. LOL
dragoninwater, I must inform youagain that Nanakuli is in the City and County of Honolulu district. Hawaii ranks #36 in the nation. That FAR from Mississippi, the lowest ranked in the nation. dragoninwater, when you insult someone, your lies will be your undoing to your credibility. Sad you need to stoop to blatant lies that can easily be discredited.
RetiredWorking, according to the reports, Nanakuli almost dead last in the entire state along with Maili being the dead last out of 172 schools in HI. I might have exaggerated about the national level since I’m sure there might be a few spots below it but it wouldn’t surprise me if it at the bottom of the barrel with the rest of the failed schools at the national level. Also, take a look at GreatSchools.org Nanakuli comes in horribly low on the national rating.

dragoninwater, your exaggerations(lies) discredit you. That’s it.
RetiredWorking, I have posted sources that Nanakuli has one of the worst schools in the nation and also one of the worst in all of Hawaii. It received a failing grade like the school in Mississippi you claim as the worst in another post. I’m not sure which of the two is worse but it proves my point that schools outside of the Leeward Coast are leaps and bounds better.
Now, rather than rambling like an old mule calling me a liar post some sources to disprove my facts otherwise you sir are a liar and have been fully discredited for not posting facts and rankings of the schools in question.
Sec. Clinton is NOT in trouble. FOX News did a survey after the second debate that put her at +8 ahead of Trump. Going deeper into the poll, some very interesting info. was revealed.
One of the questions:
Regardless of how you might vote, who do you trust to do a better job on each of the following issues if they were elected president — Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump?
Clinton
Foreign policy 59%
Health care 54%
Terrorism and
national security 53%
Immigration 52%
The economy 48%
Trump
Foreign policy 35 %
Health care 41%
Terrorism and
national security 42%
Immigration 43 %
The economy 45 %
Again, this is FOX. NOT CNN, ABC,NBC or any other MSM site/network.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/10/14/fox-news-poll-clinton-leads-trump-by-7-points.html
If all of our past faults and behaviors were taken out of contents, bridled in order to stunt our growth for improvement or to help us become a better person, then there is no hope for a better world in our future!
And not one witness, “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”. A woman rejected in love can be very angry and dangerous. This is old news nothing more than hearsay and gossip and another tactic of Hilliar to shift the attention away from her corrupt activities.
You’re off your rocker!
Not even a surveillance video or even a personal recording like the one in the locker room. 100% scam all the way. These women are liars looking for their 5 minutes of fame since neither one is the slightest bit attractive, they’re all single, miserable and broke!
Hilary sexually assaulted me. She fell over and garbed my man boob and managed to play twisty with my nipple in the process. She laughed it off like nothing happened. I’m coming forward now because no one would believe me so I feel I should speak out right before the election.
There, my claim is now as illegitimate as these feminist nut jobs that just came out of the woodwork. Secondly, for a billionaire that can pretty much marry a model or another wealthy woman, I’m finding it shocking that he would find the slightest interest in any old hag over 35. I personally have gold diggers half my age chasing me due to my status and I couldn’t phantom Trump even having to resort to even lifting a finger to get some woman given his wealth.
sounds like you got a case. may i recommend the law offices of sarge22, lespark, and wazdat to represent you and don’t forget the pix of the nipple twisties…
What ever you do don’t select Zealot Klastri that self proclaimed attorney will just abandon you and hang you out to dry just like Hilliar will do to this country if she gets elected.
I’m going to hire attorney Klastri, she’s also a federal judge. There is no conflict of interest given that she will be the judge in the courtroom as well as my retained legal counsel.
You’re lying, of course. I’m not and never was a judge, and never suggested anything like that.
I couldn’t afford doing that job.
Of course not, let me guess ..are you with Levitt, Yamane and Soldner.
The next step is to prove these allegations. Innocent until proven guilty. That’s the law. I don’t like Clinton or Trump. I have to live with our Country hanging with the next president.
you know I read all these comments everybody says from the AP news media T.V. about trump sexually harassing he has never directed it at that person and say it to there face, sexual harassment if you go up to that person and call them that, but if your in a store or anywhere else in public with a friend or by yourself you can say anything you want, its called freedom of speech, you could be in a store or in a public place or in your own private place and say anything you want about women, hey I saw this woman and I would not mind grabbing this or that its not harassment unless you go to them and say it in there face by calling them that, as I see it trump said nothing that is sexual harassment, people trying to be politically correct, he said nothing wrong, its called freedom of speech. a little immature but nothing to do with sexual harassment.
Since none of these women filed complaints with Police, the airline, Hotel, Club or anyone else – perhaps what Trump says in the video is true, you can get away with groping women if you’re rich and famous enough.
No doubt he’s a womanizer, but then that’s a fairly common trait for rich and powerful men. Bill Clinton and John F. Kennedy are prime examples, and like them – it doesn’t necessarily make for a bad president.
You would expect a womanizer to have better tastes for far much better looking women! Ten again Bill had bad tastes and did the rest of us guys a favor by picking the fugly ones so there was less competition for the good looking ones that the rest of us prefer.
Bill was a great president. Even though he claims to be a Democrat he sure acted and ran the country like a classic textbook Republican. Real Democrats were so furious with Bill that they wanted to impeach him. haaaaaaa
If these accounts are true……Heavan help us.
I don’t care for trump or hillary but women should be treated with respect so I guess I’m voting for hillary it sucks but we don’t have any other candidates…
So sukebe!
I do not doubt for one second that Trump “made it” with many women; it goes with being rich and famous. The women which whom he has “made it” may have bragging rights, but it is very disingenuous and dishonest of them to claim many years after the fact that his behavior was inappropriate. If his behavior was inappropriate, so was their behavior for willingly participating.
