A report released on October 26, 2026, details allegations made by a former Miss Busuwisi, who claims she was assaulted by Donald Trump at a 1993 beauty pageant. The report, compiled by Democratic lawmakers, reveals that the alleged incident occurred during the American Dream Pageant, an event organized by Trump. According to the report, the accuser, whose name has not been disclosed, was 24 years old at the time and worked in modeling and marketing.
The report alleges that Trump approached the woman at a hotel, offering to help her obtain a visa to study at New York University (NYU). The woman claims that Trump then took her to a room on the top floor of the hotel, where he assaulted her. She described the experience as traumatic, stating that her clothes were torn and she was injured and bleeding. The report also mentions that Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender, was present at the event and had also approached the woman, promising to help her with educational and career opportunities.
The report suggests that Trump's beauty pageants may have been used to recruit young women who could be exploited. The pageants, which were open to girls and women aged 16-22, were allegedly used by Trump, Epstein, and others to gain access to potential victims. The report also draws parallels with allegations made by Jill Harth, who accused Trump of assault in 1997.
The White House has denied the allegations, with spokesperson Lauren Bis stating that the report is politically motivated and that none of the allegations are true. Trump's team has also dismissed the allegations, claiming that the report is an attempt to undermine Trump's achievements.
This is not the first time Trump has been accused of sexual assault. In 2019, writer E. Jean Carroll accused Trump of assaulting her in a New York department store in the 1990s. Trump denied the allegations, but was found liable for sexually harassing Carroll and defaming her in a court ruling in May 2023.
The report's release has sparked renewed calls for an investigation into Trump's behavior. Democratic lawmakers are urging an independent probe into the allegations, which they say should be taken seriously.
The allegations against Trump have sparked widespread attention, with many calling for greater accountability from public figures. The report's findings have added fuel to the debate about Trump's past behavior and the need for greater transparency and accountability.
