Former ‘Apprentice’ contestant accuses Trump of groping

Donald Trump acted out onstage an accuser’s allegations and suggested another wasn’t worthy of his attention the same day two more women came forward with years-old stories of unwanted sexual encounters with the Republican presidential nominee.

She said Trump was complimentary to her during the meeting and that he would “love to have me work for him”, and told her he would contact her during an upcoming trip to Los Angeles.

Upon their meeting at the Trump Tower to discuss the position, Zervos claimed the real estate mogul kissed her twice “on the lips”, and over lunch, complimented her on having “a large set of balls” during her run on the show.

Trump’s campaign has been scrambling to recover from the release a week ago of a 2005 video in which he brags about groping women.

Neither woman reported the alleged incidents to authorities.

Allred was also flanked by Zervos’ friend, social worker Ann Russo, who is among three people who have said Zervos confided in them about Trump’s alleged misconduct.

The show offered Trump the ultimate opportunity for product placement: Contestants fawned over Trump’s gilded-to-excess Fifth Avenue apartment, his casinos, golf courses, even his girlfriend and later wife Melania.

Trump began this month with $75 million in his campaign and joint party accounts, he said Saturday in a statement.

Battered by sordid new accusations of sexual misbehaviour, Donald Trump fought back in ever-more-remarkable fashion Friday, acting out one woman’s allegation onstage and suggesting another was not attractive enough to merit his attention. “The press can’t write the kind of things they write, which are lies, lies, lies”, Trump said in Greensboro. She said Trump grabbed her breast after kissing her in a bungalow at the California hotel.

Another woman, 46-year-old photographer Kristin Anderson, told CNN on October 14 that Trump put his hand up her skirt in a nightclub in the early 1990s.

Both Barry’s statement about his cousin’s allegations and Trump’s response to her allegations sort of miss the mark, though.

“I think we should take a drug test prior to the debate, ’cause I don’t know what’s going on with her”, he said.

Anderson urged women who have been touched inappropriately to come forward and speak up about it.

Anderson told the Post that she and her companions were “very grossed out and weirded out” and thought, “OK, Donald is gross”.

“As a therapist, I recognize the conflict that she was experiencing”, said Russo, who said she also has training as a rape survivor counselor. The story came up because they were at a restaurant that reminded them of the China Club, Trent said.

With the allegations against Trump dominating the campaign, opinion polls show Trump trailing Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.

She has praised the good things he has done for her life, and in fact she converted her friends and our family to becoming Trump supporters even though we have never been active in politics before, Berry said.

Zervos claims that after she was “fired” from “The Apprentice” in 2006, she sought to maintain contact with Trump for career and business advice, as well as for possible employment with his company.

She said weeks later Trump called to invite her to meet him at the Beverly Hills Hotel, where she said she was expecting to have dinner with the NY billionaire.

“Beyond that, the media is now creating a theater of absurdity that threatens to tear our democratic process apart and poison the minds of the American public”.

The Clinton campaign, citing information it says is from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, says the hacks are being investigated as part of a broader attack on Democratic Party leaders that may involve Russian Federation.

“When I heard the tape of the bus where he is describing how he is a star and he can just pretty much do whatever he wants and they let him and, you know, he can ‘grab them by the pussy”. By Sunday he was saying explicitly: “We’ll accept the will of the American people”. According to the statement, Barry says he is “shocked and bewildered” by what Zervos said at Friday’s press conference. Instead, she described a series of unwanted kisses and touching by Trump, which she said she repeatedly rejected. Reuters could not immediately reach Slim’s spokesman for comment.

Trump says he doesn't know, never met some of his accusers
