Leeds in 2016, and in 1978.

One of the roughly dozen women who came forward with accusations of sexual harassment or assault against Donald Trump during the presidential campaign doubts that the uproar over allegations against Harvey Weinstein will lead to lasting change.
Jessica Leeds alleged last year that Trump groped her on an airplane in the late-1970s, which the president has repeatedly denied. Leeds, 75, said she is skeptical that any changes in the handling and prevention of sexual assault and harassment will occur, likening the public uproar to the call for action when controversial events prompt heated debate about race relations in America.
“Every once in a while, we say we need to discuss the problems with racial issues and we don’t, so I somewhat fear that after the headlines fade… it won’t change things,” Leeds told ABC News of the Weinstein backlash.(snip)
“I must admit I’ve found myself saying that after Trump was elected and people would still come up to me and thank me, and I would say ‘But it didn’t help.’ I truly was disappointed that we couldn’t make the objections for Trump the person stick. It’s like he is Teflon,” she told ABC News
“I don’t expect fairness in the world. It’s always a problem,” she added. “But Trump has got so many other problems that he's inflicting upon the United States that the sexual harassment is kind of low on the totem pole of problems that we have with him being president.”

Leeds in 2016, and in 1978.
Did she have a Service Potted Plant with her on the Flight?
Yup.
Of course it won’t. This is just playing the victim game.
As long as there are powerful people and regular people this will keep playing out.
Somehow the complete rebuttal by the man sitting next to this woman never made it into the article. He said that he was there the entire time and nothing like that ever happened. At least they gave Trump’s denial a sentence.
I think she made the whole thing up in her head, and convinced herself it actually happened to her. I think has issues that run really deep.
What’s to grope?
They’re trying to project Weinstein onto Trump. Typical “both sides” tactic when the Left loses a battle.
Nailed It !
Rush spoke of that very thing. She’s the MSM’s latest try at that tactic. Russia didn’t stick. Comparing Trump to Weinstein won’t either. Whatever comes down the pike next is going to be just as ridiculous.
She looks like a mean old bitch who is pissed off because he never paid any attention to her...
She has a Kennedy look about her.
She said he said now counts as proof without any evidence (tapes, photos’s, corroboration by other passengers etc)??
Not his type at all.
Since when Is one roughly 12?
???
What about Steve Austin and Bigfoot? Why won’t ABC “News” update us on THAT???
I don’t believe a word of her allegations. First off, why would Trump even consider “harassing” that ugly cow when he has a woman 100 times better? Nope, I’m not buying it, not one word!.
Trump has much better taste in women than this hag!!!
Sorry sweetie, pretty girls like Ashley Judd and Gwyneth are far more believable than you are.
