Former Miss Teen USA Said She Was Warned 'Trump Doesn’t Like Black People'

Donald Trump's behavior at beauty pageants has been exposed as creepy by former contestants who said Trump walked in on naked beauty pageant contestants as young as 15 years old. This was confirmed after audio was published of Trump bragging about seeing the women partially or completely naked, saying, "I sort of get away with things like that" because "I'm the owner of the pageant and therefore I'm inspecting it." Trump was also apparently racist at these beauty pageants, according to a former Miss Teen USA who said she was warned Trump "doesn't like black people" before meeting him.

Kamie Crawford, who at 17 years old was the first woman of color to win the pageant in almost a decade when she was crowned in 2010, tweeted about the incident on Wednesday evening. Crawford tweeted she was warned prior to meeting Trump: "Mr. Trump doesn't like black people. So don't take it the wrong way if he isn't extremely welcoming towards you. If he is, then [you] just must be the 'type' of black he likes." Crawford said Trump liked her, which she thought was fortunate at the time. She tweeted that Trump paraded her around and bragged about how "beautiful," "well spoken," and "smart" she was.

But Crawford said she witnessed how Trump treated someone who apparently wasn't the "type" of black he liked. According to Crawford, Trump turned his back and "made a face like he was going to vomit" at the sight of a black Miss Universe contest at rehearsals.

It's not the first time Trump's been linked to racism against black people. Last year a former Trump casino employee revealed all of the black employees were taken off the floor and put in the back whenever Trump and his then-wife Ivana Trump visited the casino. "When Donald and Ivana came to the casino, the bosses would order all the black people off the floor," the employee said. "It was the eighties, I was a teenager, but I remember it: they put us all in the back."

Crawford is the latest pageant contestant to make allegations about Trump. Miss Washington Cassandra Searles, who competed in the Miss USA pageant, posted about Trump on Facebook, including a photo of Trump with the 2013 contestants with the comment: "Do y'all remember that one time we had to do our onstage introductions, but this one guy treated us like cattle and made us do it again because we didn't look him in the eyes? Do you also remember when he then proceeded to have us lined up so he could get a closer look at his property?" In the comment section of that post, she then said Trump "continually" grabbed her butt and invited her to his hotel room.

On Wednesday three women came forward to allege Trump had inappropriately touched them without their permission.
