BBC runs story days before presidential visit on whether Trump is 'sex pest'

Source: The Hill

Days before President Trump is set to visit the United Kingdom, the BBC ran a special program focused on his actions with women in the 1980s and 1990s with the provocative title "Trump: Is the president a sex pest?"

The 30-minute report aired Monday as part of the BBC's investigative programming series titled "BBC Panorama." The segment is likely to stir controversy ahead of Trump's stay in the United Kingdom later this week.

Vice News reported that one woman, Barbara Piling, told the network that she met Trump - who would have been in his 40s at the time - at a party in New York in the late 1980s. She claimed that when she told Trump that she was 17, he responded that she was "not too old and not too young."

Another woman, Heather Braden, recounted attending a party in Miami in the 1990s, where Trump was one of just a few men at the event, along with close to 50 women. She said she felt "like a piece of meat" at the gathering.

He's also a larcenous sociopath with genocidal tendencies - as well as a sex pest (as Ivanka knows so well).

They should be talking about whether or not he's a sexual predator, or bully maybe.
Pest doesn't mean anything, except maybe an annoyance.

Yes he's a pest in more ways than sexual. But there's no law against that, Brits.
Try a little harder!

... it has no legal meaning. It's not possible to indict or arrest someone because they are a pest.
