Right. Let’s examine that statement, shall we?

A ‘player’ is, according to Urban Dictionary, a person “who makes you feel special” and “like you are the only girl in his life, when really you are just one in 100”. A player is usually flirtatious, charming, handsome and incredibly charismatic – and usually has plenty of notches on their bedpost (to coin an incredibly outdated phrase) as a result.

The one defining feature of a ‘player’, though, is that they readily and frequently attract willing partners – and leave a string of broken hearts in their wake when they inevitably move onto their next fling.

The most important word in that sentence? I’ll repeat it once more, for those in the back: willing.

Trump might be a player by some definitions: he’s allegedly had lots of affairs and dated loads of women (Stormy Daniels was consenting, as was playboy model Karen McDougal). However, he’s also an alleged abuser. Indeed, at least 15 women have come forward with a wide range of accusations against the president, ranging from sexual harassment and sexual assault to lewd behaviour around women.

Of the women, 13 say Trump attacked them directly and two others say they witnessed behaviour that made them uncomfortable. All the alleged incidents took place prior to Trump assuming the presidency.
