Rowanne Brewer Lane, one of Donald Trump’s ex-girlfriends went on “Fox and Friends” Monday May 16 to dispute a story on the front page of Sunday’s New York Times. She said that the paper took her her quotes out of context and “put a negative connotation on it.”
The article ”Crossing the Line: How Donald Trump Behaved With Women in Private,” starts with a quotation by Lane which said:
Donald was having a pool party at Mar-a-Lago. There were about 50 models and 30 men. There were girls in the pools, splashing around. For some reason Donald seemed a little smitten with me. He just started talking to me and nobody else.
He suddenly took me by the hand, and he started to show me around the mansion. He asked me if I had a swimsuit with me. I said no. I hadn’t intended to swim. He took me into a room and opened drawers and asked me to put on a swimsuit.
It continues, pointing to multiple interviewees who faced “unwelcome romantic advances, unending commentary on the female form, a shrewd reliance on ambitious women, and unsettling workplace conduct” by the presumptive Republican nominee.
Brewer Lane struck back at the article, saying that they took her words out of context and twisted and spun her story to make Trump look bad:
“They spun it to where it appeared negative. I did not have a negative experience with Donald Trump, and I don’t appreciate them making it look like that I was saying that it was a negative experience because it was not,” she said.
