Gates, would later call a “51-49” decision. A detailed examination of arguably her moment of greatest influence as secretary of state offers a look at what kind of president she might be.

Trump’s Encounters With Women

Long before his lewd comments caught on tape became the campaign’s focus, dozens of women detailed their private encounters with Mr. Trump. They related stories of unwelcome romantic advances, unending commentary on the female form and unsettling workplace conduct.
