New Details of Rape Allegation Against Trump Revealed in House Democrats’ Epstein Report

Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee released a report on Monday detailing new allegations of rape against President Donald Trump. According to Beatrice Keul, a model and former Miss Switzerland, Trump raped her in a Manhattan hotel suite in 1993 when she was 24 years old. Keul met Trump at a press luncheon during the American Dream Pageant, which had a partnership with the Trump organization.

Trump allegedly promised to secure her U.S. visa and admission to New York University through his friend Paolo Zampolli, who was a Trump ally. Keul claims Trump then invited her to a hotel suite, where she alleges he forcibly raped her, causing injuries. The White House denies the allegations and claims Trump has been "fully exonerated" of any wrongdoing related to Epstein.

The report also includes allegations from four other women accusing Trump of rape or sexual assault, spanning from the mid-1980s to the 1990s. Rep. Jamie Raskin called for an independent special counsel to investigate these allegations and ensure justice for the victims.
