Trump May Face Reckoning In Suit by Female Accuser

A defamation suit filed in January in the New York State Supreme Court by Summer Zervos, a short-lived contestant on The Apprentice, “has reached a critical point, with oral arguments over Trump’s motion to dismiss scheduled for Tuesday, after which the judge is expected to rule on whether the case may move forward,” the Washington Post reports.

“If it proceeds, Zervos’s attorneys could gather and make public incidents from Trump’s past and Trump could be called to testify, with the unwelcome specter of a former president looming over him: It was Bill Clinton’s misleading sworn testimony — not the repeated allegations of sexual harassment against him — that eventually led to his impeachment.”
