One former employee of President Donald Trump's golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey who voted for him in 2024 is accusing the president's managerial staff of inappropriate and predatory behavior toward female workers.
The Daily Beast reported Monday that Maria Hadley who was on the events team and banquet staff at the Trump National Golf Club is accusing both President Trump and his son, Eric, of fostering a culture of sexual harassment at the Bedminster club. According to Hadley, male staffers allegedly made constant inappropriate comments about female coworkers and guests, and retaliated against anyone who spoke out.
Hadley said in a complaint filed in New Jersey court on Monday that she was forced to wear a tight shirt and skirt that were several sizes too small. When she told club manager Patricio Neira (also named as a defendant alongside Donald and Eric Trump) that he had given her a child-size uniform, he allegedly told her: "If they dont fit, you dont work." She called it "humiliating" to have to work in revealing clothing, and had to ask a coworker to switch uniforms with her.
The former Bedminster employee also alleged that male staffers at the club sometimes referred to teenage guests as "sexy," and one bartender reportedly made "sexual comments about 12-year-old guests with braces." Hadley also said that male higher-ups at Bedminster repeatedly tried to ply underage workers with alcohol, and that a bartender routinely served alcohol to minors.

And yet, she voted for him in 2024. She inflicted him on the rest of us. I have no sympathy.

(6,206 posts)may be in the Epstein file release that seems to be slow-walked. Plus, it was more recent -- at a club he now owns and often visits. The similarities between the admiration of under-age females when Epstein was around and what this employee said seemed meaningful in that regard.

(1,108 posts)That your voting ballot is basically secret. They fear retaliation. This is why republicans want voter information public so they can harass people for who they voted for.

(40,261 posts)... I'm talking about serving liquor to underage employees and underage guests. If the sexual harassment charges stick, this place could be closed down. Let's hope Maria Hadley has other employees' depositions.
