New book excerpt: Trump urged Roethlisberger to escort Daniels to room instead of bodyguards
"Trump grabbed Ben's shoulder and leaned in. 'I told you she was smart,' he said. 'What did I tell you about this one?'"
Daniels says she wondered what Trump had told Roethlisberger. At the end of the night, Daniels writes that Trump suggested it wasn't a good idea for Daniels to walk back to her hotel room alone. She agreed, but thought it was strange that instead of sending one of their bodyguards Trump offered Roethlisberger up to walk her to her room.
"'Is it okay,' he asked, 'if I have Ben walk you to your room? ... Do you mind?' he asked again."
"'He stood outside, not leaving,'" Daniels said of Roethlisberger. "Every now and again he'd knock, rapping his knuckles in a line low along the door. 'Come onnnn,' he repeated in a singsong voice. 'I won't tell.'"
Daniels said she was shaken by the experience.
"I was terrified. I am rarely terrified," she writes.
-------------------
Wow, it sounds to me like Trump was trying to set her up. We know Trump highly enjoys sexual assault and feels he has the right, but this? Horrifying.
Roethlisberger has been investigated for sexual assault at least twice and we know of a civil settlement in at least one of the cases. Who knows how much money was exchanged?
And Trump leads the GOP. They love him. They see what he does as "OK". The president has always been seen as a role model. Makes you wonder what this next generation of Republicans are going to be like.
