– So far, ten women have public stood against the controversial politician
– Mr Trump allegedly groped the woman’s breast without her consent
Karena Virginia, a yoga instructor and lifestyle coach, came forward with “inappropriate sexual misconduct” accusations against Donald Trump.
Mrs Virginia detailed an alleged incident that occured in 1998 during US Open tennis tournament in Queens, New York state. Speaking at a press conference Mrs Virginia said: “I am here to stand up to Mr Trump for myself, my family, and particularly, my daughter. I knew who he was, but I had never met him. He was with a few other men. I was quite surprised when I overheard him talking to the other men about me.
He said, “Hey, look at this one, we haven’t seen her before. Look at those legs,” as though I were an object rather than a person. He then walked up to me and reached out his right arm and grabbed my right arm. Then his hand touched the right side of my breast. 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. I felt intimidated and I felt powerless. I felt ashamed that I was wearing a short dress and high heels. That feeling of shame stayed with me for a while and it made me disinclined to wear short dresses or high heels.
I have been fearful of bringing unwanted attention to my loving family and me. But in the end, I feel that it is my duty as a woman, as a mother, a human being and as an American citizen to speak out and tell the truth.”

Mrs Virginia has become the 10th woman to make such allegations against the politician. Recall that Mr Trump has recently found himself in the middle of a tape scandal where he bragged in vulgar terms about kissing, groping and trying to have sex with women.
