He lied (what a surprise) about never having met her - despite a photograph showing them together. I think it's probably true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that he has already publicly stated that if you’re rich or a celebrity you are free to sexually assault women, and given that it is extremely unlikely that she made it up, on a balance of probabilities it is very likely that he did rape her. There is very little that can be done about it as far as any criminal proceedings are concerned as there is a Statute of Limitation on many sexual offences in the US. Most of my american friends find it bizarre that the likes of Glitter, Dave Lee Travis and Rolf Harris have been jailed for offences committed 40 years ago.

If he did rape her - or anybody else - I'd like him to be tried, convicted and jailed. But I think it's unlikely to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive never understood the reasoning for that. Surely if a crime was committed then the amount of time that passes should be irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As TCH has pointed out, he's got form - on balance, I believe the women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep there have been MANY accusations levelled at him, some sound credible, some sound like wild allegations intended to damage Trumps credibility.
