Yoga instructor accuses Donald Trump of sexual misconduct

That didn't take long.

A day after the final presidential debate of the 2016 campaign, a yoga instructor and lifestyle coach appeared at a news conference to accuse Donald Trump of sexual misconduct.

Fighting back tears, 45-year-old Karena Virginia became the 10th woman to accuse the Republican presidential candidate of inappropriate behavior.

She alleged that in 1998, Trump walked up to her at the U.S. Open tennis tournament, grabbed her arm, and then touched her breast, according to NBC News.

"I was in shock. I flinched. 'Don't you know who I am? Don't you know who I am?' That's what he said to me," she told reporters at a New York news conference Thursday that was announced by women's rights attorney Gloria Allred during Trump's debate with Hillary Clinton. Allred said Virginia is "not considering a lawsuit at this time," but wanted to speak out in response to Trump's "ludicrous" denial of other allegations against him, according to NBC News.

Karena Virginia’s appearance validates Rush’s theorem feminism is an avenue for ugly women to get noticed.

I wouldn’t give her the time of day.

Why the heck is anyone paying attention to anyone associated with Gloria Allred??

WHERE are all the “victims” of Herman Cain she was supposed to secure “justice” for?? Are they no longer useful for the current target, so their quest for “justice” is abandoned??

Doesn’t ANYONE in the media ask such questions?? Isn’t it obvious to anyone with half a brain that Allred is just an opportunistic ambulance chaser!?? How DOES she make money anyway? Is she a “consultant” for the CGI? Wouldn’t that be convenient! If some crack reporter wanted to be the next Woodward, they would look into Gloria Allred’s finances IMO!

Has anyone in the media contacted the new Bill Clinton assault accuser?

The whole thing stinks. So how much was she paid?
Interesting pattern here, these women come out of the wood work and the accusations are anywhere from 15 to 40 years ago. Long enough back that they hope there are no witnesses to refute it, but they tend to get all the facts and circumstances wrong. Trump no doubt has a date diary kept by his office and his movements are probably detailed out.

Yes, LOL...

It’s amazing what is a high crime to the left (Trump) vs what isn’t (Clinton).

Trump could re-release that...I have a feeling it would innoculate the campaign against any further attacks along this bimbo line!

Her story is nothing and then her quotes sound like she is reliving the memoirs of a sex slave. Absolutely preposterous. Her arm was “grabbed” and in the process her breast was “touched”. Total exaggeration wrapped around very little.

At the news conference, Allred said she was a supporter of Hillary Clinton and was a Clinton delegate at the Democratic National Convention in July.

In the case of my colleague with the 42-D cups I suspect it was impossible to touch her arm and NOT make contact with the breast.

They're trying to rile-up the Julias so they'll actually show up and vote against Trump. That's what this is all about.

At the US Open, with 90 million people watching Trump and all the other celebrities, he runs over to a girl he does not know and plants his hand on her breast.

The only idiots believing these ridiculous stories is the basket of propagandizers.
