Summer Zervos, who claims Trump groped her without consent, is suing the president for defamation.
A woman who accused President Donald Trump of unwanted groping has subpoenaed all documents held by his presidential campaign about any harassment and assault allegations against him, BuzzFeed News reported Saturday.
Summer Zervos, a former contestant on The Apprentice and one of many women who came forward during the campaign to accuse Trump of harassment or assault, initiated the subpoena as part of her lawsuit against the president for defamation. Zervos decided to sue Trump in January months after the then-presidential candidate denied the allegation and dismissed all of his accusers as liars.
In her bid to establish that Trump defamed her, Zervoss subpoena aims to prove how Trump deliberately tried to discredit her and the other accusers.

At least 16 women have publicly accused Trump of forcibly attempting to kiss, grope and have sex with them. Many of those women came forward in October 2016 following the leaked 2005 video of Trump bragging to Access Hollywood host Billy Bush that he freely touches women without their consent, infamously stating that he can grab them by the pussy.
