"A Ninth Woman Has Come Forward with Allegations Against Trump"

And this is probably only the front ranks of the parade of Trump victims.

A Ninth Woman Has Come Forward with Allegations Against Trump. She says he forcefully kissed her at Mar-a-Lago.

Cathy Heller just wanted to have a nice Mother's Day brunch at Mar-a-Lago with her family in 1997. And everything was lovely until Donald Trump barged in and kissed her on the mouth without her consent, she told the Guardian.

Heller was dining in the restaurant at Mar-a-Lago with her husband, three children, and in-laws when Trump came to their table while greeting diners.

"He took my hand, and grabbed me, and went for the lips," she said, adding that she tried to move backwards but Trump would not let her go.

"He said, 'Oh, come on,'" she added. "He was strong. And he grabbed me and went for my mouth and went for my lips. He kept me there for a little too long. And then he just walked away."

The Guardian spoke with two other people who were able to verify Heller's account. One actually witnessed the encounter and recalled seeing Heller try to pull away from Trump.

"He was very forceful … She really was definitely affected by this man who was very aggressive toward her," the relative said.

Heller now joins an unenviable club of nine women who have come forward to accuse the Republican nominee of making unwanted sexual advances. One woman says she is planning to flee the country to escape the intimidation and harassment she has received since telling her story.

I'm not so sure. Note that all he does is kiss and grope. Maybe he does have a problem down there. I'm not saying he does, but maybe.

I do hope that the press is being careful about whose stories they trumpet (ha) regarding the groping etc. I am positive that there are dozens of women with true stories, but this non-stop coverage is going to attract the sort of people who lie to be famous, as well, and we sure as heck don't want a single excuse for Trump to say this was all fake.

The press seems to be vetting the stories thoroughly. I doubt if the Trump campaign could put together a fake that would not be found out which would just make things worse for him.

I agree with you, $tevie. Big stories attract all sorts of people.

Fame? What sort of fame?

What these women are risking by coming forward is the attention of Donald Trump's machine and the troll army, including death threats and non-stop harassment for a long time into the future.

Sure they could be lying; but it's hardly worth it.

I thought I was pretty clear but I guess not. I hope they are vetting these women so that no crazy people get through the net. It does happen, like it or not.

If Trump can slide a single woman into the mix that can then say I made it up and here is the truth, then the entire story becomes questionable. Further all reporting on Trump would then be questioned by many.

The media needs to very careful with those coming forward at this point.

I disagree that such a strategy would have any impact, simply because Trump has already been caught on tape bragging about doing just these sorts of things. That is what did the damage and it can't be undone.
