11th Woman Accuses Trump: Solicitation Allegation

Gloria Allred strkes again. She's now representing an adult film star who claims Trump offered her $10,000 in 2006 to come to his hotel suite in Tahoe -- she had already been in the suite that evening with some other women when she alleges he kissed them all without permission -- after she left, she says he called her and offered her $10,000 to return. Trump denies her claims.

Maybe she's jumping on the bandwagon. Maybe she's telling the truth. Does anyone care except him and his family? At this point it doesn't matter how many allegations there are or whether they are false. His presidential ship sailed into oblivion after the recording with Billy Bush surfaced.

    name-calling Trump a potentially libelous term. Please watch your language.

    Gloria has a picture of them together but Trump claims this day never happened. I guess his memory is questionable.

    when she's represented by Gloria Alred. And what exactly does "kissed without permission" mean? Can someone give me a realistic legal definition of that? I mean, who actually asks for permission?  

    Yes, this one does sound like a bandwagon jump.

    At this point it doesn't matter how many allegations there are or whether they are false.

    I respectfully disagree. False allegations always matter. Maybe not to the election but to our society.

    There's a shocker.  The fact that you have issues with Gloria Alfred is something you'll have to learn to deal with.  Women who are victims often approach her to represent them due to her reputation and expertise.

    BTW - Are you seriously having trouble understanding the concept of being "kissed without permission" (i.e. consent)?.

    ... women are scheming little b!+ches who should be grateful for whatever inebriated attention the menfolk lavish upon them whenever they make a booty call.

    And to many of those men, Gloria Allred is Mother Ballbreaker, the overbearing harridan who wields a mean belt when she's angry, and who's just barged into your bedroom while you're drooling over the Penthouse magazine you smuggled into the house.

    Those who disparage Ms. Allred better hope to high heaven that they'll never be in need of an advocate like her. Because it's only at that point when they'll finally realize just how much they've been enabling their oppressors over the years.

    Aloha.

    Hiring Allred is the way to go.  If you want to be taken seriously in the court of public opinion, she should be avoided.  She is the queen of the crying accuser press conference.  Too theatrical.

    I actually don't mind listening to Allred talk about legal cases that's shes not involved in.  It's when she has a horse in the race I can't take her seriously.

    Don't get me started on her daughter, Lisa Bloom.

    Heh - sorry.  Your opinion is not "the court of public opinion", and Allred is a nationally recognized expert in her field.  The fact that you don't like her means nothing.

    BTW - Love the way you try to impugn the integrity of her clients with your first (laughable) sentence.  As always, with nothing but your own silly, specious opinion to support it.

    if she's successful and this is her area of specialty, then she would be the most reasonable choice, yes?

    Allred is a publicity hound who doesn't always seem to have her clients' best interests at heart.  I'm not sure the Clinton campaign was happy to see her get invloved.  As Jeralyn once said......

    to this man? After Kelly Preston's son died, Trump said he "worked like hell to try and pick her up."
    "A long time ago, before I was married, I met Kelly Preston at a club and worked like hell to try and pick her up," he wrote on the Trump University website. "She was beautiful, personable, and definitely had allure. At the time I had no idea she was married to John Travolta."

    He continued, "In any event, my track record on this subject has always been outstanding, but Kelly wouldn't give me the time of day. She was very nice, very elegant, but I didn't have a chance with her, and that was that."

     Deplorable.

    it sounds like the pick up attempt happened before her son died.  

    I'll always remember Preston from the 1980's classic movie Mischief. Great scene.
