Its safe to say things has gotten worse for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. After denying allegedly kissing women and grabbing their genitals at the second presidential debate, it turns out that “The Donald” may have been caught in another lie.
According to the New York Times, Trump has landed himself in hot water. Two women have openly accused the candidate of touching them inappropriately in the past.
Former businesswoman Jessica Leeds, is disgusted with Trump. While traveling on first-class, Leeds says that she sat beside Trump on a flight to New York. She claims that after 45 minutes of takeoff, Trump allegedly lifted the armrest and began to touch her. He then grabbed her brats and tried to put his hand up her skirt.
“He was like an octopus,” Leeds says. “His hands were everywhere.”
She fled to the back of the plane. “It was an assault,” she tells the publication.
To make matters worse another woman, Rachel Crooks, also claims that he also assaulted her.
Working as a receptionist at Bayrock Group, a real estate investment and development company in Trump Tower in Manhattan, she encountered Trump outside an elevator in the building in 2005.
Crooks took the opportunity to introduce herself to Trump being that her company did business with Trump. They shook hands, but Trump would not let go, she said. Instead he began kissing her cheeks and then she said he “kissed her directly on the mouth.”
“It was so inappropriate,” Ms. Crooks recalled in an interview. “I was so upset that he thought I was so insignificant that he could do that.”
In recent news, Trump was caught red handed in a 2005 recording bragging about pursuing women. While he claims that the talk was purely “locker room banter” many voters including his opponent Democratic presidential nominee Hilary Clinton are disgusted with his actions.
The publication reports that on a phone interview, Trump vehemently denied these women’s claims.
“None of this ever took place,” said Mr. Trump, who began shouting at the Times reporter who was questioning him. He said that The Times was making up the allegations to hurt him and that he would sue the news organization if it reported them.
Trump’s campaign is tanking and with the election less than a month away, there is no telling if he can bounce back from these allegations. While many people have still stuck by his side throughout the backlash and his insensitive comments, when it comes to sexual assault you can never be sure.
