‘She Was in Love With Me’: Trump Blasts Woman Who Claims He Sexually Assaulted Her

About 8 minutes after LawNewz.com posted an exclusive interview with Jill Harth, who claimed that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her while they did business together in the 1990’s, Trump’s campaign emailed us. Minutes later, in the midst of the Republican National Convention, Trump got on the phone to deny the allegations.

“If you look in the National Enquirer, there was a story in there that she was in love with me. The woman has real problems,” Trump told LawNewz.com in a phone call. “It’s ridiculous, I’ve never touched this woman.”

As LawNewz first reported in February, Harth filed a lawsuit against the real estate mogul in 1997 accusing him of sexual assault, including “groping” her under her dress on several occasions, “forcibly” moving her to his daughter’s bedroom at Mar-a-Lago in an “attempted rape,” and repeatedly and aggressively propositioning her. On Monday, Harth not only stood by those allegations in an interview with LawNewz founder Dan Abrams, she also demanded that Trump retract his statements earlier this year in which he called some of her claims “false” and “libelous.” She’s now retained high profile attorney Lisa Bloom. Bloom is also representing one of the alleged sexual assault victims who filed a defamation case against Bill Cosby. Harth met Trump in 1992 when he sponsored some beauty pageants that her company was reportedly hosting.

In an attempt to discredit Harth, late this evening, his campaign sent us these 2015 and 2016 emails from Harth in which she inquired about a job opportunity. Harth is now working as a makeup artist. She wrote, according to an August 2015 letter provided by the Trump campaign: “I also would like to show my support for Donald and his campaign. I am offering my services to do his grooming and get him perfectly camera ready for photos and Hi-Definition TV. I have always been very fond of Donald and I CARE about him as he helped me see the light and get out of the very damaging and abusive relationship I was in. I am so different and much better than I was before.”
