2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThat Trump beauty contest thing? It was much worse than we've been hearing.
"People" were trying to make the nude girls "fawn all over" Trump when he arrived in the dressing room.
And I'd like to know who these "people" were -- was he accompanied by other men, who also came to enjoy the optics?

As for Tasha Dixon, she only confirmed what Trump told Howard Stern, except with detail. She described to the Los Angeles TV station her experience with Trump as a contestant in 2001 in a dressing room where she and others were changing into bikinis:
He just came strolling right in. There was no second to put a robe on or any sort of clothing or anything. Some girls were topless. Others girls were naked.
Our first introduction to him was when we were at the dress rehearsal and half naked changing into our bikinis.
To have the owner come waltzing in, when were naked, or half naked, in a very physically vulnerable position and then to have the pressure of the people that worked for him telling us to go fawn all over him, go walk up to him, talk to him, get his attention.

Do not for one moment think I disbelieve these reports. I don't. But it's sad how much of this crap women wind up tolerating.

(16,844 posts)girls didn't speak up at the time it happened. Way too often women are ignored when they complain or they're blamed for the incident. Meanwhile these 'men' go on to gain greater power and privilege. It's a nasty perpetual motion machine that we can't seem to stop.

Does he have a single redeeming quality? I've never seen one.

This is worse than just one sick, twisted, pig. Other adults condoned and encouraged the girl's participation in what amounted to a sex show for Trump. Charges of some kind need to be brought up against every last one of them. I'm so angry right now. These were young girls. I don't know what to say. Seething.

(37,540 posts)At least Hugh's had women of legal age that knew what the Plyboy lifestyle was about. Trump used underage girls lured into his stable under false pretenses.

Jesus, these were teenage girls. He was what? 60 years old?

(21,056 posts)Seriously... this stuff is just so facepalm-inducing... How is this perv at 1% in the polls, okay, we'll give him the 22% of bigots (based on those who said Dubya was doing a good job at the end of his term), but how is he at nearly double that, and is triple that in several states (WV, KY, TN, AL, etc).

(10,124 posts)In another interview from 2010, Letterman asks Trump what he fixed about the Miss America pageant. I made the heels higher and the bathing suits smaller, Trump said. (Trump went on to say something like, then ratings went way up...)
With this kind of genius, we have nothing to worry about, Letterman responded dryly. Everything is going to be fine

Plucketeer
(12,882 posts)They'd have lost whatever they had to gain if there was so much as a whisper about this crap. Damned pageants are are nothing but peep shows anyway. There's beauty in almost every woman. Exceptions would be Kelly Conway, Coulter and the like - and even THEY probably have a square inch of skin somewhere on their bodies that would be appealing in and by itself.
