Another allegation of inappropriate, abusive behavior has been made about Donald Trump:
Lisa Boyne, a health food business entrepreneur, described a disturbing episode in the mid-1990s: While at a restaurant with her and others, she said Trump paraded women in front of their table, looked under women's skirts, and commented on whether they were wearing underwear.Meanwhile, during a campaign speech today, Trump called the women who have accused him "horrible people" and "liars," and said of the People reporter who shared her account of being assaulted yesterday: "Take a look. You take a look. Look at her. Look at her words. You tell me what you think. I don't think so. I don't think so." Because he evidently believes that sexual assault is a compliment. It is not.
"It was the most offensive scene I've ever been a part of," Boyne told The Huffington Post on Thursday. "I wanted to get the heck out of there."
...According to Boyne, the group was seated at a semi-circular table, with the women in the middle and Trump and Casablancas flanking either end. The women couldn't get out of their seats without one of the men getting up ― which they refused to do. Instead, Boyne said, Trump insisted that the women walk across the table, allowing him to peer up their skirts while they did so. Trump "stuck his head right underneath their skirts," Boyne said, and commented on whether they were wearing underwear and what their genitalia looked like.
