This should surprise precisely zero Americans.

When debate moderator Anderson Cooper recently asked Republican nominee Donald Trump if he ever actually did the sexual assault he bragged about on the “Access” tape, he said it was just “locker room talk.”

As sure as the sun rises in the morning, women all over America are coming forward with their stories.

Here is the list, so far.

1. Jessica Leeds

During the 1980s, Jessica Leeds was traveling when the airline offered to bump her up to First Class; she happily took them up on their offer. The man next to her, who introduced himself as Donald Trump, put the arm rest down about 45 minutes into the flight. That’s when he touched her breasts and tried to stick his hand up her skirt.

This video, produced by the New York Times, features 74 year old Jessica Leeds who lives in Manhattan:

“He was like an octopus,” she said. “His hands were everywhere.”

2. Temple Taggart

Throwback to the Miss USA Pageant with Donald Trump

In 1997, Temple Taggart (have you ever heard a more “Utah” name?) was crowned Miss Utah. This was the first year that Trump, married to Marla Maples at the time, owned the Miss USA pageant.

“He kissed me directly on the lips,” she told the New York Times. “I thought, ‘Oh my God, gross.’ He was married to Marla Maples at the time. I think there were a few other girls that he kissed on the mouth. I was like ‘Wow, that’s inappropriate.’”

She also reported that he did this later during a business meeting in New York.

3. Natasha Stoynoff

In December 2005, People magazine sent writer Natasha Stoynoff to Mar-a-Largo to interview Donald and Melania Trump. The interview was going well — she had been on the “Trump beat” for a while and had ever attended their wedding. But when Melania went upstairs to change clothes, Trump told Stoynoff that he had a room she just had to see.

We walked into that room alone, and Trump shut the door behind us. I turned around, and within seconds, he was pushing me against the wall, and forcing his tongue down my throat.

Now, I’m a tall, strapping girl who grew up wrestling two giant brothers. I even once sparred with Mike Tyson. It takes a lot to push me. But Trump is much bigger—a looming figure—and he was fast, taking me by surprise, and throwing me off balance. I was stunned. And I was grateful when Trump’s longtime butler burst into the room a minute later, as I tried to unpin myself.

The butler informed us that Melania would be down momentarily, and it was time to resume the interview.

I was still in shock, and remained speechless as we both followed him to an outdoor patio overlooking the grounds. In those few minutes alone with Trump, my self-esteem crashed to zero. How could the actions of one man make me feel so utterly violated? I’d been interviewing A-list celebrities for over 20 years, but what he’d done was a first. Did he think I’d be flattered?
