Donald Trump Accuser Says She's Fleeing Country
One of the women who accused Donald Trump earlier this week says she’s fleeing the country out of fear.
Mindy McGillivray, who accused Trump of groping her at Mar-a-Lago 13 years ago, says she no longer feels safe in America.
“We feel the backlash of the Trump supporters. It scares us. It intimidates us. We are in fear of our lives,’’ the 36-year-old told The Palm Beach Post in an interview on Friday.
McGillivray has been staying in a hotel ever since initially talking to the paper about her incident with Donald Trump. She says she was helping a photographer out at an event in January of 2003 at Trump’s Florida property when Trump grabbed her backside.
"All of a sudden I felt a grab, a little nudge. I think it’s Ken’s camera bag, that was my first instinct," she told The Palm Beach Post. "I turn around and there’s Donald. He sort of looked away quickly."
Trump denied the accusations and called them total fabrications.
McGillivray says that’s simply not true, and that she decided to share her story when Trump denied charges of groping.

"I’m a real person. I’m not perfect... I need to expose my ugly side. This isn’t for money. This isn’t for fame. This is to be honest with her," she told the paper.
Since then, she says she’s been scared in the home she shares with her daughter and step-dad.
“I look out the window and there are cars just driving around the house and looking, slowing down right at the house,’’ she said. “I don’t live in a gated community. This is dangerous. There could be people out there who want to hurt us.’’
