Donald Trump’s former girlfriend, Rowanne Brewer Lane, said Monday that a New York Times article this past weekend “spun” her relationship with the billionaire “to where it appeared negative.”
Appearing on Fox News’s “Fox & Friends” on Monday, Brewer Lane responded to the Times article — entitled “Crossing the Line: How Donald Trump Behaved With Women in Private.
“I did not have a negative experience with Donald Trump,” Brewer Lane said, “and I don’t appreciate them making it look like that I was saying that it was a negative experience because it was not.”
She said the Times reporters “told us several times that they would make sure that my story that I was telling came across. They promised several times that they would do it accurately. They told me several times and my manager several times that it would not be a hit piece and that my story would come across the way that I was telling it and honestly, and it absolutely was not.”

“They spun it to where it appeared negative,” Brewer Lane argued. Trump “never made me feel like I was being demeaned in any way. He never offended me in any way. He was very gracious. I saw him around all types of people, all types of women. He was very kind, thoughtful, generous, you know. He was a gentleman.”

“He was a very good guy, Donald, and I think he’s doing a good job in this race and I think that some people have a problem with that,” Brewer Lane claimed.
Co-host Ainsley Earhardt asked if Trump ever mistreated women. Brewer Lane replied, “Not that I’ve ever seen. Absolutely without a doubt, no.”

After the interview concluded, Trump tweeted, “The @nytimes is so dishonest. Their hit piece cover story on me yesterday was just blown up by Roseanne [sic] Brewer, who said it was a lie!”
