Donald Trump is once again at the center of new allegations brought forward by former model Stacey Williamswho has shared troubling details about an incident from the early 1990s. Her revelations have sparked fresh conversations about Trump’s past, adding another layer to the ongoing discourse surrounding his behavior.
Here’s a closer look at what was revealed, Trump’s response, and the context surrounding these new claims.
What did Stacey Williams say about Donald Trump?
Former model Stacey Williams accused Donald Trump of groping her in 1993, stating that the incident occurred at Trump Tower after Jeffrey Epstein introduced her to Trump.
Williams alleged that Trump put his hands “all over my breasts” as well as her waist and buttocks, leaving her feeling “deeply confused.” She also mentioned that during the assault, Epstein and Trump appeared to be smiling at each other, which led her to believe it was part of a “twisted game” (via The Guardian).
Williams shared that her encounter with Trump followed her casual dating of Epstein, a relationship that she initially believed was innocent. “It became very clear then that he and Donald were really, really good friends and spent a lot of time together,” the former model said. Williams also claimed that after the incident, Epstein grew angry with her and berated her for letting Trump grope her. She recalled Epstein saying, “Why did you let him do that?”
Williams added that Trump later sent her a postcard inviting her to stay at his Mar-a-Lago residence, which she believed further corroborated their connection.
How did Donald Trump’s team react to the allegations?
Trump’s team quickly denied the allegations, with his press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, stating, “These accusations, made by a former activist for Barack Obama and announced on a Harris campaign call two weeks before the election, are unequivocally false.” Leavitt emphasized that the story was politically motivated and part of a smear campaign orchestrated by Kamala Harris’ supporters.
This denial is consistent with Trump’s response to previous allegations of se*ual misconduct. Over two dozen women have accused him of inappropriate behavior, ranging from groping to se*ual assault. Despite these allegations, Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.
His campaign dismissed the claims as part of a broader effort to discredit him as he seeks re-election, particularly in the wake of a court judgment finding him liable for se*ually abusing columnist E. Jean Carroll in 1996.
Despite these accusations, Trump maintains his innocence in all cases involving misconduct.
