Donald Trump Says Sexual Assault Allegations are “Made-Up Stories”

HeadlineOct 14, 2016

Donald Trump, in response, has denied the accusations of sexual assault, which include women accusing Trump of groping them and kissing them without their consent. Speaking at a rally in Florida Thursday, Trump denied he forced himself upon People magazine reporter Natasha Stoynoff in 2005 by implying he didn’t attack her because of her looks.

Donald Trump: “Take a look. You take a look. Look at her. Look at her words. You tell me what you think. I don’t think so.”

Natasha Stoynoff says Trump sexually assaulted her at the Mar-a-Lago in 2005, when she was interviewing him and Melania for a story about the first anniversary of their wedding. Stoynoff writes Trump was giving her a tour of the estate when “Trump shut the door behind us. I turned around, and within seconds he was pushing me against the wall and forcing his tongue down my throat.”
