Donald Trump Criminal Scandals List

The 45th President of the United States is a rapist. Let that sink in. Donald Trump raped a woman in a NYC department store in the mid 90s. There is little chance this is not true. Two friends of the victim corroborated her story and said she confided with them about the rape at the time before going public today. She has a dress she claims could have DNA evidence to further corroborate her story, but Donald Trump refuses to submit to a test which you would think an innocent person would actually do.

But he's not just a one time rapist, his ex-wife Ivana told of an incident where she was raped by Donald Trump which was also corroborated by friends who recall Ivana confiding to them about the incident.

He has bragged about sexual assaulting women and how we "grabs them by the pussy." And this fits exactly in line with his character with him having an absurd amount of sexual misconduct and assault accusations for someone who actually became President.

If you vote for Donald Trump you are voting for a violent criminal. A rapist. A serial sexual assaulter of women. And that's just the sex crimes. His other crimes could also result in prison sentences of decades. We list all his known criminal scandals below. Imagine how many more he got away with.
