Trump recorded having extremely lewd conversation about women in 2005

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by William769 (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: Washington Post

Donald Trump bragged in vulgar terms about kissing, groping and trying to have sex with women during a 2005 conversation caught on a hot microphone — saying that “when you’re a star, they let you do it” — according to a video obtained by The Washington Post.

The video captures Trump talking with Billy Bush of “Access Hollywood” on a bus with Access Hollywood written across the side. They were arriving on the set of “Days of Our Lives” to tape a segment about Trump’s upcoming cameo on the soap opera.

The tape obtained by the Post includes audio of Bush and Trump’s conversation inside the bus, as well as audio and video once they emerge from it to begin shooting the segment.

In that audio, Trump discusses a failed attempt to seduce a woman, whose full name is not given in the video.

Grab them by the p---y,” Trump says. “You can do anything.

Anyone surprised?

Makes you wonder how much footage NBC is holding back from his recent years on the Apprentice, we have plenty of contestants that spoke about his deplorable behavior, hard to believe they have nothing after working with him for over 10 years.

is that Bill Clinton has said far worse on the golf course. Thats all he could come up with.....no proof, no tape. Nice try Donny, no one believes anything you say but your low life base. You on the other hand, have been caught on tape over and over.

He was immature and impetuous - who isn't at that age? Now that he's 70, no one respects women more than Donald Trump.

If you have not read the full article, read it. Print it, copy it, hand it out to your Trump-supporting friends AND THEIR WIVES AND DAUGHTERS.

I'm 72 yrs old. I am not a choirboy. But I have NEVER said anything like this. NEVER EVEN THOUGHT about saying things like this.

CNN is now playing the tape.

Trump has said this is old stuff, I apologize.

I was limited to 4 paragraphs and it was impossible to capture the degree of disgust that I have for trump with just four paragraphs.

....including playing the full (3+ minutes) audio/video without editing out many of the words.

And news flash - Trump has actually apologized for it already, although it was a weak apology.

Can't wait for someone at Sunday's Town Hall to ask him about it!
