'HE GRABBED ME:' WOMAN ALLEGES TRUMP GROPED HER EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED ON TAPE

Source: Newsweek

"Given Trump’s taped confession about grabbing “pussy” and his compulsion to kiss beautiful women “on the mouth”—and his two decades as owner of the Miss Universe, Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants, it seems plausible that the nation is on the verge of seeing a major party presidential campaign mired in a sexual harassment scandal, in which other women start trickling out of the shadows. Friday night, CNN’s Erin Burnett reported that an anonymous friend of hers said Trump caught her “off guard” and kissed her on the mouth in his office in 2010.

High-profile sexual harassment lawyer Gloria Allred also told Newsweek she has fielded similar calls. “I've had a lot of women contact me,” Allred said. “They are all confidential. Needless to say, there are a number of women who are intimidated in fear of what Mr. Trump would say or do and are not willing to say or do anything to provoke that.”

Attorney Bloom says she has received calls from other women with stories about Trump, but that so far, they have been afraid to go public."

I did not understand all along how Evangelicals and Fundamentalists
saw Family Values in this candidate

He waffled over every issue and went against their entire ideology
at various points of the campaign

Now he's roiling what's left

It will be a Grand Old Tea Party

even if they have nothing in their background that would be embarrassing.

I am currently in court self-representing in an environmental/development issue. I'm not an attorney and I'm up against two of them. Fortunately, I'm a good researcher and writer. But self-representation is not for everyone. It's also very time consuming and if you're working full-time, it's pretty much impossible unless you have a lot of evenings and weekends completely free. That means no kids/family obligations.
