Actor Billy Baldwin has accused US President Donald Trump of hitting on his wife after gate crashing at a party two decades ago.
In response to a tweet from Donald Trump Jr about the latest sexual harassment allegations against Democratic Senator Al Franken, Baldwin said Trump once "hit on my wife" at a Manhattan hotel.
The tweet reads: "Your Dad is a 5th degree black belt when it comes to sexual impropriety allegations. In fact. I once had a party at the Plaza Hotel. your father showed up uninvited & hit on my wife. invited her on his helicopter to Atlantic City."
"She showed his fat a-- the door," he added.
Baldwin has been married to Chynna Phillips, a singer with the band Wilson Phillips, since 1995, and the two have three children.
The actor didn’t reveal what year the Plaza party occurred; Trump purchased the hotel in 1988.
Billy used to be cordial with Trump, but has been a staunch critic since the campaign, regularly lashing out against him on Twitter.
But this is not the first time Trump has publicly discussed hitting on married women. In the infamous Access Hollywood tape revealed in 2005,
he talked about being attracted to a married woman, and said he “moved on her like a bitch.” He added: “But I couldn’t get there; and she was married.” He also said that as a celebrity, “You can do anything ... grab them by the pussy.”
Some 16 women have accused Trump of sexual misconduct. Even Summer Zervos, a contestant on Trump’s former reality TV program, The Apprentice, is suing the President for defamation for calling her a liar after she accused him of groping her.
Baldwin's brother and fellow actor, Alec Baldwin has on several occasions drawn ire for his Trump impersonation on 'Saturday Night Live.' (ANI)
