Trump’s excuse that the remarks heard on the now infamous lewd audio were only words was dealt a blow as two women have come forward to accuse the Republican nominee of sexual assault.
The New York Times reported:
More than three decades ago, when she was a traveling businesswoman at a paper company, Ms. Leeds said, she sat beside Mr. Trump in the first-class cabin of a flight to New York. They had never met before.
About 45 minutes after takeoff, she recalled, Mr. Trump lifted the armrest and began to touch her.
According to Ms. Leeds, Mr. Trump grabbed her breasts and tried to put his hand up her skirt.
“He was like an octopus,” she said. “His hands were everywhere.”
She fled to the back of the plane. “It was an assault,” she said.
Ms. Leeds has told the story to at least four people close to her, who also spoke with The New York Times.
A second woman has come forward to accuse Trump of kissing and touching her in an unwanted way.
The story is likely to get worse before election day, as Trump’s excuse that it was only words was never believable, especially since he bragged on the audio tape about getting away with sexual assault because he is famous.
The Donald Trump story is no longer about a presidential election. That ship has likely sailed. The allegations of sexual assault against Donald Trump are a test for the Republican Party. Will Republicans be capable of doing what’s right, and rejecting their own nominee?
There is no more time for half measures like condemning his words, but still supporting and endorsing him. The evidence is growing by the day that the Republican Party has nominated a sexual predator to serve as the nation’s next president.
Either elected Republicans fully disown Trump, or voters must reject the Republican Party.
