Since the 1970s, at least 28 women have accused Donald Trump of various acts of sexual misconduct,[1] including rape, kissing and groping without consent, looking under women's skirts, and walking in on naked teenage pageant contestants. Trump has denied most of the allegations, but admitted some, in the 2005 Access Hollywood tape and toward Howard Stern[2]. He has a history of insulting and belittling women when speaking to the media and on social media,[3][4] and has made lewd comments about women, disparaged their physical appearance, and referred to them using derogatory epithets.[4][5][6]

In October 2016, two days before the second presidential debate with Hillary Clinton, a 2005 "hot mic" recording surfaced in which Trump was heard saying that "when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. ... Grab 'em by the pussy."[7] The incident's widespread media exposure led to Trump's first public apology during the campaign,[8] and caused outrage across the political spectrum.[9]

In 2025, Trump's past friendship with Jeffrey Epstein received significant media attention following his administration's refusal to release files relating to Epstein, despite Trump's 2024 election campaign promises to do so.[10]

Overview
Donald Trump has been accused of rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment, including non-consensual kissing or groping, by at least 25 women since the 1970s.[a]

In June 2019, writer E. Jean Carroll alleged in New York magazine that Trump raped her in a department store dressing room in 1995 or 1996. Two friends of Carroll stated that Carroll had previously confided in them about the incident. In November 2019, Carroll filed a defamation lawsuit against Trump.[16] Trump called the allegation fiction and denied ever meeting Carroll, despite a photo showing them together at a party in 1987 being published by the magazine.[17][18][19]

In November 2022, Carroll filed a suit against Trump for battery under the Adult Survivors Act. On May 9, 2023, a New York jury in a civil case found Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation against Carroll, but found him not liable for rape. They awarded Carroll US $5 million in damages.[20] In July 2023, Judge Kaplan stated that the jury had found that Trump had raped Carroll according to the common definition of the word as they had ruled that Trump had forcibly and nonconsensually penetrated Carroll's vagina with his fingers.[21] New York state's definition at the time defined rape as solely nonconsensual penetration of the vagina by a penis.[22] A September 2023 partial summary judgment again found Trump liable for defaming Carroll. On January 26, 2024, Trump was ordered to pay Carroll an additional $83.3 million in damages.[23]

Other litigation includes his then-wife Ivana's rape claim during their 1990 divorce (she later recanted);[24] businesswoman Jill Harth's 1997 lawsuit alleging breach of contract and sexual harassment (she settled the former claim and forfeited the latter); and former Apprentice contestant Summer Zervos's claim of sexual misconduct, followed by a 2017 defamation lawsuit after Trump accused her of lying[25] (she withdrew her defamation case in 2021).[26]

The allegations by Ivana Trump and Jill Harth became public before Trump's presidential candidacy with the rest going public after the 2005 Access Hollywood tape was leaked during the 2016 presidential campaign in which Trump was recorded bragging that a celebrity like himself "can do anything" to women, including "just start kissing them ... I don't even wait" and "grab 'em by the pussy". Trump denied behaving that way toward women and apologized for the crude language. Many of his accusers stated that Trump's denials provoked them into going public.

Several former Miss USA and Miss Teen USA contestants accused Trump of entering the dressing rooms of beauty pageant contestants while contestants were in various stages of UnCloth. Trump had already referred to this practice during a 2005 interview on The Howard Stern Show, saying he could "get away with things like that" because he owned the Miss Universe franchise. In October 2019, the book All the President's Women: Donald Trump and the Making of a Predator[b] contained 43 additional allegations of sexual misconduct against Trump.[27][28]

Trump has denied all the allegations against him, saying he has been the victim of media bias, conspiracies, and a political smear campaign.[c] In October 2016, Trump publicly vowed to sue all the women who have made allegations of sexual misconduct against him, as well as The New York Times for publishing the allegations.[33][34]

Court Testimonies

disclosed the alleged sexual assault by Trump in June and said Trump's reaction had directly harmed her career and reputation.[16] Carroll said she was filing this lawsuit on behalf of each woman who has faced harassment, assault, or belittlement.[66] Trump stated that her allegation was a promotion strategy for her book titled What Do We Need Men For? A Modest Proposal, where she discloses details about the alleged assault. The White House Press Secretary responded to the lawsuit claiming it was "frivolous" and that the story was fake, "just like the author".[67]

In September 2020, the Justice Department argued that Trump had acted "within the scope" of the presidency when he called Carroll a liar, moved the case from a state court (which had recently denied Trump's motion to delay the case) to federal court, and sought to take over his defense. During the discovery phase, Trump could have been required to testify and to provide a DNA sample. Attorney general Bill Barr cited the Westfall Act as allowing the Justice Department to defend federal employees against civil liability for acts conducted in the normal course of their duties. Barr stated the White House had requested the Justice Department action and noted that taxpayers would pay any judgment should Carroll win the case.[68][69][70][71][72] Since government employees largely enjoy immunity from defamation suits, the Justice Department argued that Trump had spoken in his official capacity as president.[73] On October 27, federal judge Lewis Kaplan rejected that argument and allowed the suit to proceed and consider Trump's actions to be by a private citizen[74]—not an officer of a federal agency (as the Justice Department said), as Trump was occupying an office defined in the Constitution, which was a separate category.[75] On November 20, Kaplan ordered Trump's prior private attorneys to resume representing him in the case.[76] On November 25, the Department of Justice appealed Judge Kaplan's ruling in the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.[77]

In June 2021, the Justice Department argued in a court brief that it should substitute itself as the defendant in the case because Trump had acted as a federal employee.[78]

Carroll filed a second lawsuit against Trump in November 2022 that renewed her claim of defamation due to additional statements Trump made and expanded her claim to battery under the Adult Survivors Act, a New York law that allows sexual-assault victims to file civil suits beyond expired statutes of limitations.[79] The trial for E. Jean Carroll v. Donald J. Trump began on April 25, 2023, in federal court at the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.[80][81] On May 9, after deliberating for less than three hours, a jury of six men and three women in Manhattan federal court unanimously found Trump liable for sexually abusing Carroll and defaming her by calling her a liar, rejecting his denial of the allegations, though they did not find Trump liable for rape. The jury awarded Carroll $5 million in compensatory and punitive damages.[82]

A September 2023 partial summary judgment found Trump liable for defaming Carroll through his statements he made in 2019. A trial held January 16–26, 2024 awarded an additional $83.3 million in damages to Carroll.[83]

Trump filed a countersuit against Carroll, but the judge dismissed the case and wrote that Carroll's accusation of "rape" is "substantially true".[84]

The $5 million judgement against Trump "for defamation and sexual abuse" was upheld on appeal by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on December 30, 2024,[85][86] and again on June 13, 2025.[87] The $83.3 million judgment was also upheld by the Second Circuit on September 8, 2025, after Trump's lawyers attempted to argue on grounds of presidential immunity relating to Trump v. United States (2024).[88][89] Interest is also due on the outstanding amount.

You're supposed to be worried sick about the content and not the title (if you're normal).

AI nonsense.

You are supposed to make a distinction between the caption and the body. Truth must be whole if it must be believed, and not having parts edited (or missing). The thread's title and body should be coherent. It is the abc of article writing. Making sense of this report with all its misleading inclusions is like guzzling rotten apple from a garbage trunk. Knock yourself out, champ.
