Former Miss Universe Alicia Machado says Donald Trump tried to pressure her to have s-x with him when she was still considered a minor per her legal contract. She says Trump kept her in Mar-a-Lago for several days in a room right next to his.

The claim consists of two main components: first, that Donald Trump tried to pressure Alicia Machado, then a teenager and Miss Universe, to have sex with him; second, that he kept her at Mar-a-Lago for several days in a room next to his. Machado has publicly stated in interviews that Trump disrespected her and attempted to sleep with her during their time working together, which supports the assertion of pressure or unwanted advances.newsweek.comnewsweek.comTrump Tried to Have Sex With Teenage Beauty Queen Alicia Machado While He...

She also described being kept at Mar-a-Lago during the pageant period, consistent with reports of contestants staying there. However, Machado explicitly denied ever having sexual relations with Trump.newsweek.comnewsweek.comTrump Tried to Have Sex With Teenage Beauty Queen Alicia Machado While He... The claim that she was considered a minor per her legal contract aligns with her age at the time (she was 18 during the pageant), though specific contract details are not publicly available.

The context includes ongoing disputes and public accusations between Machado and Trump, with Trump denying or attacking her claims. While the pressure allegation is supported by Machado's statements, the exact nature and extent of the pressure cannot be independently verified beyond her testimony. The claim about room proximity is plausible given Mar-a-Lago's layout but lacks detailed public confirmation.

Overall, the core factual elements, that Machado accused Trump of pressuring her sexually as a teenager and that she stayed at Mar-a-Lago near him, are supported by credible sources, but some details remain unverified or based on personal testimony.
