I get that "gold diggers" exist and that there are women who are fine having sex with rich men just so they can get money. That's a thing; however, I do not believe that every woman groped by Trump was either a gold digger who wanted some of his money or someone who genuinely wanted to be grabbed by him. There only needs to be one person who didn't want that for it to be sexual assault.
In the last week or so, since this Kavanaugh thing has blown up publicly, I've seen friends and friends of friends giving detailed accounts about how they were personally sexually assaulted, and the reasons why they didn't say "no" at the time, nor come forward later. I find it much more credible that at least one of those women fell in that category rather than they all wanted it.

If Trump approaches a woman at a party, after she follows him to an unoccupied room, and he "grabs her by the pussy" and she does nothing to stop him, completely lets him do it, no sexual assault has occurred.
This may be the case in the jurisdiction you're in, but I'm not interested in legal rape apologia defenses. We can still call it morally wrong.
