Another day, another Trump accusation of sexual assault?
Karena Virginia says she was waiting for a car to pick her up after the U.S. Open tennis tournament in 1998 when Trump came up to her and groped her breast.
She overheard Trump talking to a group of men about her body. "As I was waiting, Donald Trump approached me. I knew who he was, but I had never met him," said Virginia, a yoga instructor and life coach, Thursday at a press conference. "He was with a few other men. I was quite surprised when I overheard him talking to the other men about me. He said, 'Hey, look at this one. We haven't seen her before.'"
"'Look at those legs,' as though I was an object, rather than a person," Virginia continued. "He then walked up to me and reached [with] his right arm and grabbed my right arm. Then his hand touched the inside of my breast. I was in shock. I flinched." According to Virginia, Trump then said, "Don't you know who I am?"
The yoga instructor said she ran into Trump again five years later, and he kept looking her up and down. "I had come to the realization that I was the victim," she said. Though the revelation came at a press conference with the lawyer, Gloria Allred, Virginia said she has no plans to press charges.
Despite the mounting evidence, Trump continues to deny the allegations of sexual assault. More than 11 women have out come out claiming the Republican nominee sexually harassed them.
During last night's debate Trump accused Hillary Clinton of convincing women to falsify accusations against him. He blamed her for the women who have come out publicly against him, saying they either wanted fame or supported Clinton for president.
He continued to claim the media was "rigged" against him, and said these accusations were another example of that. Trump claimed he didn't know any of the women who accused him of sexual assault.
The People writer, Natasha Stoynoff, who claims Trump sexually harassed her, had her story corroborated by six other people. Stoynoff attended Trump's wedding to his wife, Melania, and there are photos of Trump, Melania, and Stoynoff together.
During the debate, Trump told viewers, "No one respects women more than me." The crowd laughed, mocking the candidate. Several minutes later, Trump interrupted Clinton while she was speaking, to say, "Nasty woman."
The phrase "nasty woman" has been reappropriated by Clinton supporters, who have been using it as a term of empowerment, counter to Trump's intended meaning, which was to put Clinton down.
