Ivana Trump once accused the real estate tycoon of ‘rape,’ although she later clarified: not in the ‘criminal sense.’ Donald Trump introduced his presidential campaign to the world with a slur against Mexican immigrants, accusing them of being “rapists” and bringing crime into the country.
“I mean somebody’s doing it!…Who’s doing the raping?” Donald Trump said, when asked to defend his characterization.
It was an unfortunate turn of phrase for Trump—in more ways than one. Not only does the current front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination have a history of controversial remarks about sexual assault, but as it turns out, his ex-wife Ivana Trump once used “rape” to describe an incident between them in 1989. She later said she felt “violated” by the experience.

I believe she said this 20 years ago not recently.
Keep your powder dry, if this is going to be a steady drip, drip, drip, type of attack on Trump, the type of stuff is telling to me. Looks like the hope is that Trumps defenders are part of the target, if you jump in over and over, the hope has got to be collateral damage. Attack the victim type of thing to try to turn this into a man vs woman sort of thing, to make the Republicans look bad.
This is a democrat attack, I’ll bet. If it’s Republican attack it was perpetrated by someone really stupid.
Keep your powder dry, don’t overreact.
This posted article (hit piece) deserves Breaking News status as it's likely all we are going to hear about for the next week or two.
Considering the place Trump hold in the race, it's a big deal (hit piece).
- Ivana Trump
Got a source for that?
She did not say it now she said it 23 years ago during after their divorce.
The last scrape from the bottom of the barrel.
Megan Kelly highlighted this tonight.Ivana and Donald were divorced in 1992.
That’s 23 years ago.
With Clinton, sex was no one else’s business.
Megan is fully on board with the new Fox mantra—Trump must be destroyed.
Yep, I saw that too! Fox really stepped in it. Disgraceful. Megyn was a transparent beyotch.
But I got the impression that halfway through her little "Breaking News" propaganda she started getting nervous about what she was doing. I mean, she is a lawyer, she must know something about the nonsense that comes out of divorce cases. I'll bet she is not looking forward to running into Trump any time soon.
Furthermore, instead of repeatedly running it through the chyron scroll they seemed to have stopped ( at least I haven't noticed it ). The other Trump stories were never-ending.
The bad news for the MSM and Fox and the dwarfs is that they just handed Trump an invitation to smack them around some more, with even more vitriol. It also serves to inoculate him early from this issue. They will never learn.
We really need a whistle-blower to defect from Fox News, one who is brave enough to disregard the non-disclosure agreement and spill the truth about the influence people exert over the network. Obama, Murdoch, RNC, it all needs to be explained.
Oh goody, we get to hear people who licked Bill Clinton’s ass through one sexual assault after another, lecture us about Trump’s lack of moral fiber.
like, we’re supposed to care about Donald’s sex life?
is this what our national political discourse has, um... come to?
we are in deep deep....something
Oh please if that’s what they are talking about it’s ridiculous. There was a time a father could boast about how wonderful his daughter is.
Obama, Clinton, Dems, and GOPe all make me feel violated... yes, in the criminal sense.
“as the love and tenderness, which he normally exhibited towards me, was absent.”
Oh Good Lord! The woman was talking about the failure of their marriage.
I won’t give that site the hit, but this is nothing more than a rehash of a 20+ years old story, a comment made in the middle of a divorce. Sad the Beast can’t find better more current things to write about.
Donald, say it ain’t so.
How horrible that she put up with that “violation” for 15 years. /sarc
Kelly was the first person to mention it on TV tonight. I heard her then went to the website.
And of course Walker has the WI connection with Preibus over at the RNC—oppo research central, where they’d been so “nice” to Trump the last few days.
It must be a DEM thing. They are obsessed with sex.
They're still working on the ex-wives. Sexual accusations come later if Trump is still in the running.
