President-elect Donald Trump was hit with a defamation lawsuit by a former contestant on his reality television show ‘The Apprentice’ who had previously accused him of sexual misconduct.
Summer Zervos’s yesterday’s lawsuit claims that Trump — set to become the 45th US president on Friday — lied when responding to allegations that he tried to kiss and grope her without her consent.
Trump has “debased and denigrated Zervos with false statements about her,” the lawsuit says.
