At least 23 women have accused President Donald Trump of sexual misconduct since the 1970s.
Renewed attention has been brought to the allegations amid the #MeToo movement and a national conversation concerning sexual misconduct.
Trump has repeatedly denied all of the accusations, calling the women "liars."
Most recently, former Trump campaign staffer Alva Johnson filed a federal lawsuit against Trump in February 2019 alleging that he kissed her without her consent at a 2016 campaign event.

As a national conversation on sexual misconduct is gripping the country from Hollywood to Capitol Hill, some renewed attention has been focused on the sexual misconduct allegations that at least 23 women have made against Trump since the 1970s.

A deluge of women made their accusations public following the October 2016 release of the "Access Hollywood" tape, in which Trump was recorded boasting about grabbing women's genitals in 2005. Some others made their stories public months before the tape's release, and still others came forward in the months following.

Trump has dismissed all of the allegations — which include ogling, harassment, groping, and rape — as "fabricated" and politically motivated accounts pushed by the media and his political opponents, and promised to sue all of his accusers. In some cases, he and his lawyer have suggested that Trump didn't engage in the alleged behavior with a certain woman because she was not attractive enough.

Alva Johnson, a former Trump campaign staffer, said that Trump kissed her without her consent at a Tampa, Florida rally on August 24, 2016.

Johnson, 43, said Trump grabbed her hand and kissed her on the side of her mouth as he exited an RV outside of the rally, according to details in a new federal lawsuit and an interview with the Washington Post.

"Oh, my God, I think he's going to kiss me," Johnson said in a February 2019 interview with the Post. "He's coming straight for my lips. So I turn my head, and he kisses me right on corner of my mouth, still holding my hand the entire time. Then he walks on out."

Johnson filed a federal lawsuit against Trump in February.

Trump's response:

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told INSIDER in a statement, "This accusation is absurd on its face. This never happened and is directly contradicted by multiple highly credible eye witness accounts."

I would have pushed his ass the rest of the way out the door and hope he lands on his million dollar face. (I'm sure he's spent that much on coloring alone. And who knows how much botox and...)

Just ICK!!

How did "multiple highly credible eye witness accounts" verify that an event they were a eye-witness to didn't happen?

That ugly orange ass claiming the women were not attractive enough?? Hey, Donald, you are no hunk. Shapeless, repulsive, fat, many chins, boring as hell. No wonder you have to PAY to get women to marry you.

According to Steve Bannon and maybe others, there were at least 100 other women who did accept the payoffs. They signed the NDA and, other than Stormy Daniels, have never been heard from again.

AdorationOf him. Even if the Epstein story comes out with proof he raped young girls they will shrug it off.

With the christofascists they will say their savior is just being a man and the woman are probably lying. I saw this 4 part documentary on about him on Netflix and numerous woman said they he was leacherous and kind of creepy rape like.
