Trump is facing renewed scrutiny over his treatment of women, including reports he raped his ex-wife Ivana in a fit of rage. Ivana Trump made the accusation in a deposition. However, in the book, “Lost Tycoon: The Many Lives of Donald J. Trump,” Trump’s lawyers insisted a statement by Ivana Trump be placed in front of the book which read, “I referred to this as a 'rape,' but I do not want my words to be interpreted in a literal or criminal sense.” The New York Times has interviewed dozens of women who interacted with Trump, from a beauty pageant contestant who said Trump kissed her on the lips, to a woman executive who said Trump commented on her weight, telling her, “You like your candy.” Rowanne Brewer Lane, a model who dated Trump, said he asked her to change into a swimsuit almost immediately after meeting her at a pool party at his Florida mansion. Trump is known for his disparaging language against women, calling comedian Rosie O’Donnell’s face “fat” and “ugly,” and saying of Fox News host Megyn Kelly’s tough questioning of him, “There was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her—wherever.”
