Make-up artist Jill Harth said the audio recording of Trump bragging that his stardom allowed him to do whatever he wanted to women, including “grab them by the p---y,” sadly came as no shock.
“That was exactly what he did to me,” she told the Daily News.
Harth sued Trump in 1997, claiming the bawdy businessman sexually harassed her for years and attempted to rape her at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
“I feel vindicated to a certain degree,” she said.
Harth said that, in 1993, she and her then-fiance were working on a business deal with Trump.
During a trip to the billionaire’s Florida mansion, Trump forced her into one of his children’s bedrooms, threw her against a wall, began kissing her, lifting up her dress, and trying to touch her private parts.
Trump has denied assaulting Harth, called her a liar, and deemed her suit “meritless.”
But a 2005 recording of Trump, now the Republican presidential nominee, making lewd and vile remarks about women was released by the Washington Post Friday that Harth says corroborates her story.
In the clip, Trump tells then-“Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush: “You can do anything.
“When you’re a star, they let you do it,” he adds.
Harth eventually withdrew her claim when Trump settled a separate lawsuit with her business partner, but she stands by her claims.
“I just couldn't believe it,” Harth said. “This is proof. No one can say they don’t believe me anymore.”
