TRUMP SEXUAL ASSAULT FACT SHEET

*Trigger warning; content not suitable for children.

Sexually assaulting, degrading, defaming, and objectifying women is disgusting behavior. Trump is NOT who women need as a leader.

Since the 1970s, 26 women have come forward with stories of Trump raping or sexually assaulting them. When you vote next month, I ask everyone to consider:

What is supporting a serial sexual predator and adjudicated rapist teaching our children and grandchildren about how men should treat women?

Share this post with your friends and family, your legistlators, and on social media. Ultimately, I would like to see legislation passed that prevents any person convicted of SA, in a civil or criminal court of law, from being eligible to serve on any level in our government.

October 2016, Trump was heard on a recording bragging about sexually assaulting women. He said, “when you’re a star…you can do anything. Grab ‘em by the pussy.”

E. Jean Carroll wrote about Trump raping her in June, 2019. Trump lied about knowing her, despite there being a photo of the two of them. In Nov., 2022, Caroll filed a suit against Trump for battery under the Adult Survivors Act.

o   May, 2023, a jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming Carroll, awarding her $5 million in damages.

o   July, 2023, Judge Kaplan confirmed that the jury had found Trump had raped Carroll forcibly and nonconsensually penetrating her vagina with his fingers.

o   In Sept., 2023, a second jury found Trump liable for defaming Carroll and ordered Trump to pay Carroll $83.3 million in damages.

Several former Miss USA and Miss Teen USA contestants have come forward about Trump walking into dressing rooms at pageants while the teens and young adults were naked. Trump said in a 2005 interview, “You know, they're standing there with no clothes” and he could “get away with things like that” because he owned the Miss Universe franchise. Contestants confirming Trump’s behavior include Mariah Billado, Victoria Hughes, Bridget Sullivan, Tasha Dixon, and Samantha Holvey.

The book All the President’s Women: Donald Trump and the Making of a Predator, was published in October, 2019 and contains information on 43 allegations of sexual misconduct against Trump.

Trump’s name has appeared seven times on pedophile/rapist Epstein’s flight logs.

Trump talking about Epstein: "I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it, Jeffrey enjoys his social life."

In May 2016, The New York Times published the article "Crossing the Line: How Donald Trump Behaved with Women in Private". “For the article, Times reporters Michael Barbaro and Megan Twohey conducted 50 interviews with women who had known Trump socially, during their professional career, or while modeling or competing for a beauty pageant title.[47] Their accounts—many relayed here in their own words—reveal unwelcome romantic advances, unending commentary on the female form, a shrewd reliance on ambitious women, and unsettling workplace conduct, according to the interviews, as well as court records and written recollections. The interactions occurred in his offices at Trump Tower, at his homes, at construction sites and backstage at beauty pageants. They appeared to be fleeting, unimportant moments to him, but they left lasting impressions on the women who experienced them.”
