Several of these allegations preceded Trump's candidacy for president; many more arose during that campaign, especially after his second debate with Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton on October 9, 2016. That debate was held two days after revelation of a 2005 recording in which Trump bragged about kissing and groping women, including grabbing them "by the pussy"; he said that because he was a celebrity, "they let you do it" and "I don't even wait". During the debate, Trump denied that his recorded comments described sexual assault and denied ever having inappropriately touched a woman. His comments provoked many of his accusers into going public with their allegations.
Three women have filed lawsuits alleging that they were sexually assaulted by Trump, one of which is a Jane Doe lawsuit that alleges rapes at a series of sex parties in 1994, when the plaintiff was 13. The case is pending a December 2016 hearing. The other cases have been withdrawn as the result of settlement agreements. In addition to the three lawsuits, Trump has also been publicly accused of non-consensual kissing, or non-consensual groping of breasts, buttocks and genitalia, by at least nine more women.
There have also been accusations, primarily beginning in October 2016, that Trump entered dressing rooms of beauty queen contestants while they were in various stages of undress, a practice that Trump admitted to during a 2005 interview on The Howard Stern Show. This practice allegedly extended to Miss Teen USA; several former participants in that pageant allege that Trump walked into the dressing rooms of girls as young as 15.

Legal proceedings
Main article: Legal affairs of Donald Trump
Ivana Trump (1989)
Ivana Trump in 2007
[O]n one occasion during 1989, Mr. Trump and I had marital relations in which he behaved very differently toward me than he had during our marriage. As a woman, I felt violated, as the love and tenderness, which he normally exhibited towards me, was absent. I referred to this as a "rape," but I do not want my words to be interpreted in a literal or criminal sense.The accusation, which Trump said was "obviously false",[4] was withdrawn as part of a settlement agreement.[5] The Trump's divorce was granted in December 1990[6] with the final financial settlement made in 1991[7][8] or 1992,[4][9] on grounds that Donald's treatment of Ivana was "cruel and inhuman".[4][9] According to Trump's lawyer, Jay Goldberg, this was based on Trump having been seen in public with Marla Maples in 1990.[6]
Their settlement had a confidentiality clause, according to Ivana.[5] In 1992, Trump sued Ivana for not honoring a gag clause in their divorce agreement by disclosing facts about him in her best-selling book, and Trump won a gag order.[10][11][12] Years later, Ivana said that she and Donald "are the best of friends".[5] In a July 2016 campaign endorsement, Ivana said: "I have recently read some comments attributed to me from nearly 30 years ago at a time of very high tension during my divorce from Donald. The story is totally without merit."[13]
Jill Harth (1992)
Jill Harth alleges that Trump assaulted her several times. In December 1992, while having dinner with Trump and her then boyfriend George Houraney, Trump tried to reach his hands between her legs.[5] In January 1993, Harth and Houraney went to Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida for a contract-signing celebration. Harth claims Trump offered her a tour and then pulled her into the empty bedroom of his daughter Ivanka. "I was admiring the decoration, and next thing I know he's pushing me against a wall and has his hands all over me. He was trying to kiss me. I was freaking out." Harth says she desperately protested against Trump's advances, and eventually managed to run out of the room. She and her boyfriend left rather than stay the night, as they had intended.[5] When she became engaged, Harth alleges that Trump began stalking her.[4]Jill Harth filed a lawsuit in 1997 in which she accused Trump of non-consensual groping of her body, including her "intimate private parts",[14][15] and "relentless" sexual harassment.[16] The suit was withdrawn when a "parallel suit" her husband had filed against Trump was settled by Trump agreeing to pay an undisclosed sum of money.[17] She still claims to have been sexually assaulted[5] and although he was never violent with her, she says he made attacks that were "unwanted and aggressive, very sexually aggressive."[4]
In 2015, Harth worked at one of Trump's rallies as a makeup artist. Of that experience, she said: "I'm a makeup artist. The guy is a mess, OK? He really needed my services, and I'm a makeup artist that needs a job. Why would, if I was on friendly terms, why wouldn't I try to get that job?"[4]
Her case was first published in May 2016[4] in the New York Times article "Crossing the Line".[18] Trump calls her story in the Times "false, malicious & libelous" and he "strongly denies the claims."[4] Harth then stood by her charges in a July 2016 interview with The Guardian.[17]
Jane Doe (1994)
A civil lawsuit, filed in October 2016,[19][20][a][b] accuses Trump of raping "Jane Doe",[21] who has not been named for legal reasons.[5] She was 13 years old at the time, and other minors under the legal age of consent were also brought to parties[21][5] in 1994 that were hosted by convicted underage sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.[19] Doe's complaint states that "Defendant Trump tied Plaintiff to a bed, exposed himself to Plaintiff, and then proceeded to forcibly rape Plaintiff ... Plaintiff loudly pleaded with Defendant Trump to stop but with no effect. Defendant Trump responded to Plaintiff's pleas by violently striking Plaintiff in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do whatever he wanted."[5] An affidavit from an unnamed witness to the alleged assault is part of the complaint.[21][5] Doe's attorney is Thomas Meagher.[21]Federal Judge Ronnie Abrams ordered a status hearing for pre-trial or settlement preparation on December 16, 2016, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The lawyers for the plaintiff, Trump, and Epstein's attorneys are to appear[19] to discuss any settlement discussions, venue, and potential length of the trial.[21] Trump's attorney, Alan Garten, said of the case: "As I have said before, the allegations are categorically untrue and an obvious publicity stunt aimed at smearing my client."[5] A Trump campaign spokesperson said, "This is a hoax. It has been filed and dismissed on several occasions. It is frivolous, sanctionable and obviously politically motivated nonsense."[5]
Recording controversy and second 2016 presidential debate
Main article: Donald Trump and Billy Bush recording controversy
Billy Bush was recorded having "an extremely lewd conversation about women" with Trump in 2005.
On October 7, Trump released a video statement: "I said it, I was wrong, and I apologize." He also called the development a distraction and attempted to deflect attention to the Clintons, especially Bill Clinton's past sexual scandals. Republican critics have called on him to withdraw from the presidential race.[22]
During the second debate, Anderson Cooper asked Trump if he understood that his statements bragged about sexually assaulting women. Cooper used the Justice Department's sexual assault definition to include "any type of sexual contact or behavior that occurs without the explicit consent of the recipient."[23][32] Trump denied that he had said that he had sexually assaulted women.[32][33] He claimed the comments were merely "locker room talk", then, after being asked three times whether he had ever kissed or groped any person without consent, he said "no I have not".[33] Several of his subsequent accusers said this was the moment that motivated them to come forward.[34][35][36]
Allegations of unwanted physical contact
In May 2016, The New York Times published the article "Crossing the Line: How Donald Trump Behaved with Women in Private". For the article, Times reporters Michael Barbaro and Megan Twohey conducted 50 interviews with women who had known Trump socially, during their professional career, or while modeling or competing for a beauty pageant title.[18]Their accounts — many relayed here in their own words — reveal unwelcome romantic advances, unending commentary on the female form, a shrewd reliance on ambitious women, and unsettling workplace conduct, according to the interviews, as well as court records and written recollections. The interactions occurred in his offices at Trump Tower, at his homes, at construction sites and backstage at beauty pageants. They appeared to be fleeting, unimportant moments to him, but they left lasting impressions on the women who experienced them.There were also women, some of whom worked for Trump, interviewed for the story who said they had not received unwanted advances and "they had never known Mr. Trump to objectify women or treat them with disrespect". Jill Martin, a vice president and assistant counsel at the company, said that Trump was supportive of her and her role as a mother. Laura Kirilova Chukanov, a Bulgarian immigrant and 2009 Miss USA pageant contestant, said that he helped her make connections for a documentary that she was working on about her home country.[18]
Natasha Stoynoff, Mindy McGillivray, Jessica Leeds, and Rachel Crooks spoke out about their allegations in October 2016 after hearing Trump deny during the debate that he had ever assaulted women.[34][37][33] The Times stated that they verified the stories with friends and family members of the accusers to ensure that the stories had been relayed to them earlier.[38]
Jessica Leeds (1980s)
In the early 1980s, Leeds was a businesswoman at a paper company on a flight from the Midwest, returning to New York. A flight attendant offered her an empty seat in the first-class cabin next to Trump. Leeds described how, about 45 minutes after takeoff, Trump lifted the armrest and began to touch her, grabbed her breasts, and tried to put his hand up her skirt. "He was like an octopus," she said. "His hands were everywhere. It was an assault."[34][37] Leeds said she had written an article to the editor of The New York Times.[4][34]Trump spokesman Jason Miller responded to the allegation calling it "fiction." Two campaign sources said Trump's lawyers were drafting a lawsuit against the Times for publishing the story.[39]
Kristin Anderson (1990s)
On October 14, The Washington Post reported accounts by Kristin Anderson that Trump groped her beneath her skirt in a Manhattan nightclub in the early 1990s. An aspiring model at the time of the incident, Anderson related her experience to friends, and decided to come forward after reading accounts of other women who had done so.[40] Anderson believed that the incident occurred at the China Club, a Manhattan nightclub that Newsday referred to as "Donald's Monday-night nest" due to his alleged habit of picking up women there.[40]Cathy Heller (1997)
In February 2016, Cathy Heller was interviewed off the record for an article for The Guardian in which she recounted how she was grabbed and kissed by Donald Trump two decades earlier.[41] Heller reports that, in 1997, she met Trump when she attended a Mother's Day brunch with her children, her husband, and her husband's parents at his Mar-a-Lago estate. Her parents-in-law were members of Mar-a-Lago. Heller was introduced to Trump, who became angry when she avoided a kiss. He then "grabbed" her and, when he tried to kiss her, she turned her head. Trump kissed her on the side of the mouth "for a little too long" and then he left her.[41][42]Heller's husband and children, who were present during the event, have corroborated her account. In the summer of 2015, the members of Heller's mahjong group heard Heller's account of the 1997 incident; this was not long after Trump announced his candidacy.[43] She decided to go public after seeing the second presidential debate on October 9, 2016. Heller is a registered Democrat, and public supporter of Hillary Clinton.[41]
Trump campaign spokesperson Jason Miller stated that Heller's account is "false" and "politically motivated".[43]
Temple Taggart McDowell (1997)
Temple Taggart McDowell, Miss Utah USA in 1997, publicly accused Trump of unwanted kisses and embraces that left McDowell and one of her chaperones so uncomfortable that she was instructed not to be left in a room alone with him again. If that seemed like a possibility, a chaperone would accompany her.[44] At the time, McDowell was 21 and was known as Temple Taggart.[4] This incident occurred in Trump's first year of ownership of the Miss USA contest.[4]McDowell told her story initially to The New York Times in May 2016[44] which was published in the "Crossing the Line: How Donald Trump Behaved With Women in Private" article.[18] She had not intended to speak publicly about the incidents again, but she received numerous calls recently due to the "Crossing the Line" article and felt, as a mother, that it is important to share a message about unwanted advances: "You have the right to say no. You have the right to get out of there. You have the right to leave, and you have the right to make them feel uncomfortable if they're making you feel uncomfortable," she said. Trump stated that he does not know her and denied McDowell's claims.[44] He also told The New York Times that he is "reluctant to kiss strangers on the lips."[4]
Mindy McGillivray (2003)
In an article by The Palm Beach Post, Mindy McGillivray stated that in January 2003, when she was 23 years old, she was groped by Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate.[4][36] She said, "All of a sudden I felt a grab, a little nudge. I think it's [my friend Ken Davidoff's] camera bag, that was my first instinct. I turn around and there's Donald. He sort of looked away quickly."[4] Davidoff, a photographer, corroborated McGillivray's account, saying he remembered her pulling him aside moments after the alleged incident to say "Donald just grabbed my ass!"[36]McGillivray said that she "chose to stay quiet"[33] and never reported the incident to authorities. She had only shared details of the incident with close family and friends until she heard Trump deny such behavior during the second presidential debate on October 9, 2016.[36] Hope Hicks, Trump's press secretary, stated that McGillivray's allegations lacked "any merit or veracity" and were untruthful.[33]
Rachel Crooks (2005)
In 2005, Rachel Crooks was a 22-year-old receptionist at Bayrock Group, a real estate investment and development company in Trump Tower in Manhattan. She says she encountered Trump in an elevator in the building one morning and turned to introduce herself. They shook hands, but Mr. Trump would not let go. Instead, he began kissing her cheeks, then directly on the mouth.[34][37] "It was so inappropriate," Crooks recalled in an interview. "I was so upset that he thought I was so insignificant that he could do that."[37] Her story was printed by The New York Times, along with that of Jessica Leeds.[34] Trump has categorically disputed Crooks' claims.[4]Natasha Stoynoff (2005)
Canadian author and journalist Natasha Stoynoff, who wrote for People magazine and, previously, the Toronto Star and Toronto Sun, went to Trump's Florida estate in December 2005 to interview him and his wife, Melania. While there, Trump gave Stoynoff a tour of the Mar-a-Lago estate and when in a "tremendous" room, she says that he pushed her against a wall and forced his tongue into her mouth.[4][33]Stoynoff described the alleged episode, "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 ... 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."[35] Stoynoff composed herself and conducted the interview,[4] after which she said Trump repeatedly told her, "We're going to have an affair, I'm telling you."[33][35] Melania was also interviewed for that article.[35]
Trump sent out a tweet on October 13, 2016, in which he said it had not happened and wondered why she had not mentioned the event in her People article of 2005.[4] Stoynoff responded that she had become angry when Trump denied assaulting women during the presidential debate and was triggered by the release of the Access Hollywood recording in early October. Until that point, she said, she had conflicting emotions common among victims of assault, combined with embarrassment and confusion. J.D. Heyman, People's deputy editor, said: "It was disorienting for her. She felt a great deal of worry and distress about it. Then she felt angry."[45]
That same day, Melania's lawyer demanded an apology from People magazine, stating that Melania did not say some or all of what was quoted in the People article by Stoynoff published on October 12, 2016; Melania specifically denied Stoynoff's claim that she'd run into her on 5th Ave following the article's publication.[46] In an interview with Anderson Cooper that aired October 17 on CNN, Melania again denied having crossed paths with Stoynoff on 5th Ave, as stated in Stoynoff's article. The following day, People published the account of Liza Herz. Herz said she witnessed the sidewalk encounter between Stoynoff and Melania Trump; Herz' account corroborated that of Stoynoff.[47]
On October 18, People produced six corroborating witnesses who said Stoynoff had recounted the incident to them around the time that it occurred.[47] The six witnesses were: "two editors from People, Mary Green and Liz McNeil; a professor of journalism, Paul McLaughlin; a co-worker; and two personal friends of Ms. Stoynoff."[48].
Summer Zervos (2007)
Summer Zervos was a contestant on the fifth season of The Apprentice, which filmed in 2005 and aired in 2006.[49][d] After she contacted Trump, in 2007, about a job after the show's completion, he invited her to meet him at The Beverly Hills Hotel. Zervos stated that Trump was sexually suggestive during their meeting, kissing her open-mouthed, groping her breasts,[49] and thrusting his genitals on her.[51] She also stated that his behavior was aggressive and not consensual.[50]John Barry, her cousin and a Trump supporter, claimed that Zervos had talked to her family and friends about Trump, promoting his candidacy and stating how he had helped her out in her life. During the presidential primary campaign, she allegedly invited Trump to her restaurant, and he declined.[52]
Zervos is being represented by attorney Gloria Allred.[52]
Unnamed friend of CNN anchor Erin Burnett (2010)
In 2010, an unnamed woman was kissed in a Trump Tower boardroom. She said, "Trump took Tic Tacs, suggested I take them also. He then leaned in, catching me off guard, and kissed me almost on lips. I was really freaked out." She was invited by Trump into his office. She and Trump were alone in the office when he made further advances, giving her his cell phone number, telling her she was special, and asking her to call him. The woman said that she "ran the hell out of there". It was mentioned on air by Erin Burnett, a friend of this woman, in October 2016.[4]Cassandra Searles (2013)
Rolling Stone and NPR have reported that Cassandra Searles, Miss Washington USA of 2013, was fondled by Trump during the Miss USA pageant of that year.[4][53] Yahoo!News published an article in June 2016[4] stating that Searles had made Facebook postings that accused Trump of making unwanted advances. She said that he was "continually" groping her buttocks and had asked her to go "to his hotel room".[4][53][54] Searles also asserted that Trump had "treated us like cattle."[54] Trump and his campaign have not responded to Searles' allegations.[4]Allegations of pageant dressing room visits
Trump owned the Miss Universe franchise, which includes Miss USA and Miss Teen USA, from 1996 to 2015.[44][53] Contestants of the shows have alleged that, during his tenure, Trump would enter the dressing rooms while they were in various stages of undress. Former Miss Arizona Tasha Dixon mentioned such an incident in 2001 at the Miss USA contest.[55]Trump allegedly entered the dressing room of the Miss Teen USA pageants while the girls were dressing. The youngest contestants were 15 years old. He told the girls, "Don't worry, ladies, I've seen it all before."[37][53][56]
During a Howard Stern interview in 2005, Trump described his practice of walking in unannounced while beauty pageant contestants were naked or partially clothed:
You know, no men are anywhere. And I'm allowed to go in because I'm the owner of the pageant. And therefore I'm inspecting it... Is everyone OK? You know, they're standing there with no clothes. And you see these incredible-looking women. And so I sort of get away with things like that ... I'll go backstage before a show, and everyone's getting dressed and ready and everything else.[53]
Mariah Billado (1997)
Mariah Billado, Miss Vermont Teen USA, is one of four women to mention such a dressing room visit incident in 1997.[57] Billado said of the visit: "I remember putting on my dress really quick, because I was like, 'Oh my god, there's a man in here.' Trump, she recalled, said something like, 'Don't worry, ladies, I've seen it all before.'"[4] There were also eleven girls who said that they did not see Trump enter the dressing room, which had 51 stations for the contestants, some said it was possible that he entered while they were somewhere else, or that they didn’t notice.[57] When Billado talked to Ivanka, Trump's daughter, she said "Yeah, he does that." There was no comment by the Trump campaign.[4]Bridget Sullivan (2000)
In 2000, Bridget Sullivan was Miss New Hampshire USA. As she prepared for a television broadcast, Trump walked into the dressing room. She told BuzzFeed that he was coming to wish the contestants good luck, but they "were all naked". Some contestants that night do not remember him entering while the ladies prepared and other contestants mentioned that they had no negative experiences with Trump. A spokesman for Trump said that Sullivan's claims were "totally false".[4]Tasha Dixon (2001)
Tasha Dixon, Miss Arizona USA 2001, told a CBS affiliate in Los Angeles that in 2001, "[Trump] just came strolling right in. There was no second to put a robe on or any sort of clothing or anything. Some girls were topless, other girls were naked." She said that having been walked on when the women had little or no clothes put them in a "very physically vulnerable position, and then to have the pressure of the people that work for him telling us to go fawn all over him, go walk up to him, talk to him ..." Trump's response, provided through spokeswoman Jessica Ditto, is that: "These accusations have no merit and have already been disproven by many other individuals who were present," Ditto adds that she believes that there is a political motivation behind the accusation.[4]Unnamed contestants (2001)
An unnamed Miss USA contestant said that in 2001 Trump walked into her dressing room unannounced while she and another contestant were undressed. She told The Guardian that Trump "just barged right in, didn't say anything, stood there and stared at us .... He didn't walk in and say, 'Oh, I'm so sorry, I was looking for someone.' He walked in, he stood and he stared. He was doing it because he knew that he could." Another contestant told The Guardian that the contestant spoke to others of this event at the time.[4]Samantha Holvey (2006)
On October 14, 2016, Samantha Carol Holvey, Miss North Carolina USA 2006, told CNN that prior to pageant events, Trump had "moved into areas where she and other contestants were getting ready."[58]Reactions
Comparisons to other behavior
Shaun R. Harper, executive director of the Penn Graduate Center for Education, has said that "many men talk like Donald Trump"; objectifying women and saying offensive things about them. He puts Trump in a class of men whose behavior sometimes includes sexual assault and degrading women.[59] The Economist drew similar parallels, pointing to research that objectifying women can make sexual assault more likely.[60] NPR reported that Trump has exhibited questionable behavior in his treatment of women for some time, using offensive language to describe women including Megyn Kelly, Rosie O'Donnell, and former Miss Universe Alicia Machado.[61] Arwa Mahdawi of The Guardian called his past remarks a "masterclass in rape culture", pointing to statements such as "26,000 unreported sexual assults [sic] in the military-only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together?" and "women, you have to treat 'em like shit."[62] On October 13, a transcript from a 1994 Primetime Live interview was unearthed where Trump states "I tell friends who treat their wives magnificently, get treated like crap in return, 'Be rougher and you’ll see a different relationship.'"[63]Trump campaign reactions
"I have no idea who these women are." - Donald Trump statement during campaign, published by Voice of America.
This entire article is fiction, and for The New York Times to launch a completely false, coordinated character assassination against Mr. Trump on a topic like this is dangerous. To reach back decades in an attempt to smear Mr. Trump trivializes sexual assault, and it sets a new low for where the media is willing to go in its efforts to determine this election. It is absurd to think that one of the most recognizable business leaders on the planet with a strong record of empowering women in his companies would do the things alleged in this story, and for this to only become public decades later in the final month of a campaign for president should say it all. Further, the Times story buries the pro-Clinton financial and social media activity on behalf of Hillary Clinton's candidacy, reinforcing that this truly is nothing more than a political attack. This is a sad day for the Times.Trump's attorneys demanded a retraction of the Times article and an apology for what they said was a "libelous article"[33]—defamation designed to destroy Trump's run for president.[38] David McCraw, assistant general counsel for the Times, responded on October 13, 2016, to the libel claims from Trump's attorney. He stated that Trump's reputation is damaged and "could not be further affected" due to his own statements, like those he made on the Howard Stern show. McCraw continues, "it would have been a disservice not just to our readers but to democracy itself to silence [the accusers'] voices."[64] In response to the request to retract the story, McCraw said, "We decline to do so" and stated that Trump was free to pursue the matter in court.[65]
Trump's campaign staff also stated that the Stoynoff and McGillivray accusations were without merit.[33] Regarding the number of accusations that have been reported in the media, Trump claims that "corporate media" are "political, special interest, no different than any lobbyist or other financial entity with a total political agenda."[64]
#WhyWomenDontReport
Further information: Post-assault treatment of sexual assault victims
The hashtag #WhyWomenDontReport started trending on Twitter in response to the Trump campaign's statements that the accusers lack credibility.[66]
Many Twitter users and members of the media disputed the claim that the
timing of the allegations during the presidential campaign has a
bearing on how likely the events were. The range of reasons given for
why women are reluctant to report sexual assault immediately included
fear of reprisals, fear no one will believe, low likelihood of justice,
and the traumatic experience of having to be reminded of the event.[66] Liz Plank points out that Trump's accusers are now experiencing all of these factors since coming forward.[67] Civil rights lawyer Debra Katz points out that high-profile cases tend to encourage victims to speak up, even years later.[68]
Tom Tremblay, a police specialist in sexual assault, says: "Victims may
wait days, weeks, months, years, decades ... When one victim comes
forward, it's not at all uncommon to see other victims come forward, who
are thinking, 'Well, they came forward; now it’s not just my word.'"[69] Susan Dominus, writing for The New York Times Magazine, hopes this backlash against Trump will lead to more people believing women's stories in the future.[70]Notes
- The Associated Press interviewed more than 20 people who had worked on the Apprentice television show for an article. The group included contestants, editors and crew members who described commonly hearing offensive and sexist comments. For instance, Trump talked about what women he wanted to have sex with. The article stated also that he "rated female contestants by the size of their breasts".[50]
