Donald Trump speaks to members of the media in the debate room after the second presidential debate, Tuesday, September 10, 2024

George Conway, the ex-husband of former Donald Trump aide Kellyanne Conway, is helping to draw attention to sexual assault allegations against the former president as he seeks a second term in the White House.

On Wednesday, September 25, the district attorney’s anti-psychopathic political action committee launched ads featuring two of the Republican presidential candidate’s sexual assault accusers.

The first ad centers on former PEOPLE reporter Natasha Stoynoff, who claims she was assaulted by Trump during a December 2005 trip to Mar-a-Lago to interview him and his wife, Melania Trump, for the magazine — something she previously said had “no merit or truth.”

“At one point, Melania went upstairs to change for the next photo shoot, and Trump said to me, ‘I want to show you this beautiful painting, this beautiful room.’ He led me into this room, pushed me against the wall and started kissing me hard,” she said. “I tried to push him away. He kept coming back to me.”

“I was shocked and choking, and he had his hands here on my shoulders. I felt sick inside. I was horrified, and thank God the butler came into the room,” she continued. “Like a lot of women, I felt guilty. Then Trump turned to me and said, ‘You know we’re going to have an affair, right?’ and Melania came over. I was horrified.”

The second ad features Jessica Leeds, who said in a 2016 interview The New York Times reports that Trump grabbed her breasts and tried to put his hand up her skirt while he was sitting next to her on a first-class flight in 1979, when she was 38.

Leeds said she met the former president at a charity event, just two years after their alleged interaction on a plane, where he insulted her with a “rude remark”.

While Trump has denied the allegations in the Times In an article, Leeds vividly recalls the alleged encounter in the new ad, saying: “The plane took off and all of a sudden Donald Trump started groping me. He was trying to kiss me and I was trying to push him away, he was basically dominating me.”

“When he started putting his hand under my skirt, I got out of my seat, grabbed my purse and went back to my original seat. I was definitely shaken by the whole thing,” she added.

The ads will air on some of Trump’s favorite networks — Fox News, ESPN and The Golf Channel — in his hometowns of West Palm Beach, Florida, and Bedminster, New Jersey.

Additionally, the ads air nationally on CNN, MSNBC’s Joe in the morningHallmark, Lifetime and streaming platforms in the key state of Pennsylvania.

They are also scheduled to air on NewsNation during the vice presidential debate on Tuesday, October 1.

Former President Donald Trump attends the first day of his criminal trial in Manhattan on April 15, 2024.

Over the course of his career, Trump has been accused of varying degrees of sexual misconduct by at least 26 women, though he has vehemently denied any wrongdoing. He has not faced criminal charges stemming from these allegations, most of which came to light after the statute of limitations had expired.

After a civil trial in 2023, a jury found him guilty of sexually abusing an accuser – a former She Columnist E. Jean Carroll — in a dressing room in the 1990s. The day after the verdict, Carroll told PEOPLE the trial was a “historic achievement.”

“It wasn’t just me. Every woman feels vindicated. Finally, a woman was believed,” said Carroll, then 79. “It took years, the best lawyer in America and persistence in four different courts.”

She added: “Unfortunately, in this culture, the man we beat in court always has a very high status. In fact, his status was elevated. And I still lost my job.” (Carroll’s contract was terminated by She when she came forward with her allegations of assault.)

Stoynoff and Leeds, who appear in Conway’s new anti-Trump ads, served as witnesses at Carroll’s sexual abuse trial.
