Three Women Accusing Trump Of Sexual Assault Will Be Interviewed On TV

From Esquire UK

Time's cover choice of the Silence Breakers - people who spoke out against sexual assault - as their Person Of The Year proves it has been a year of seismic change.

But while 2017 saw many men called out and brought down by their behaviour, many have pointed out that Donald Trump has a number of accusers well into the double digits and these claims are not being taken seriously in the same way.

In light of that, NBC have announced that their news anchor Megyn Kelly will conduct an exclusive live sit-down interview today with three of the sixteen women who have publicly accused Trump of sexual misconduct.

Kelly herself was a target of Trump's during his campaign and also recently complained to Fox News about Bill O'Reilly's treatment of women.

Speaking to Time for the cover story which she was a part of she commented,"I have real doubts about whether we'd be going through this if Hillary Clinton had won, because I think that President Trump's election in many ways was a setback for women,"

The interview with Jessica Leeds, Samantha Holvey and Rachel Crooks will air today on NBC News' Megyn Kelly TODAY at 9am, New York time.

Trump has denied the women's claims and White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said: "The president addressed these accusations directly during the campaign and we have no changes."

In addition to the interviews, Brave New Films is hosting a press conference this morning with the women who have publicly accused Trump of sexual harassment. The group are calling for a congressional investigation into the allegations against him.
