Donald Trump Jr. Slammed For Sexual Harassment Comments, Forgets Dad Was Accused

Amid a growing list of Hollywood men who have been accused of sexual assault, Donald Trump Jr. chimed in on Twitter, retweeting a Washington Times opinion piece blasting liberals for hating his father while these acts occurred. Social media users were quick to point out that his father, President Donald Trump, has also been accused of sexual harassment.

“Why don’t we simplify this greatly and publish a list of those in Hollywood who aren’t creeps??? Apparently a much smaller group,” Trump Jr. tweeted Wednesday.

People responded to Donald Trump Jr.'s tweet by asking if he remembered his father's accusations.

“What about your dad?” one user asked.

“Your dad is perhaps the biggest [creep] of them all,” said another.

Donald Trump has been accused of sexual misconduct including groping an unwanted kissing by at least 12 women, according to a 2016 New York Times report. In October of last year, before he was elected president, a 2005 video from the show “Access Hollywood” surfaced that revealed lewd statements made by the then-candidate.

“You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful—I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the p—. You can do anything,” he said.

The president is also facing a pending lawsuit stemming from one woman’s accusations of sexual harassment. Summer Zervos filed a defamation lawsuit in January 2017 against the president after he said that she lied about her allegations. Zervos alleged that Trump groped her and kissed her without her consent. Trump has also been accused of walking backstage at some of the beauty pageants he owned while women were undressed and preparing for the show. Trump admitted in a 2005 interview with Howard Stern that he walked backstage when women were naked.

“Well, I'll tell you the funniest is that I’ll go backstage before a show, and everyone's getting dressed and ready and everything else, and you know, no men are anywhere. And I'm allowed to go in because I'm the owner of the pageant and therefore I'm inspecting it,” he said. “You know, they're standing there with no clothes.”

Trump has denied all the allegations.
