“Grab them by the pussy,” Trump says.
Le tout Facebook is talking about the Washington Post’s new story about Trump.
They got possession of a video that has Trump talking on a hot microphone.
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.
I recommend playing the video to get the full flavor – the laughter, the boasting, the time someone says “it’s good” and you’re not sure if “it” is a woman or not.
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.
“I moved on her and I failed. I’ll admit it,” Trump is heard saying. It was unclear when the events he was describing took place. The tape was recorded several months after he married his third wife, Melania.
“Whoa,” another voice said.
“I did try and fuck her. She was married,” Trump says.
Trump continues: “And I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, ‘I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.’”
“I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn’t get there. And she was married,” Trump says. “Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.”
Then, apparently, they spot Arianne Zucker outside, the actress who is waiting to escort them into the soap opera set.
“Your girl’s hot as shit, in the purple,” says Bush, who’s now a co-host of NBC’s “Today” show.
“Whoa!” Trump says. “Whoa!”
“I’ve gotta use some tic tacs, just in case I start kissing her,” Trump says.“You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.”
Coarse laughter from Bush.
“And when you’re a star they let you do it,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”
“Whatever you want,” says another voice, apparently Bush’s.
“Grab them by the pussy,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”
But there’s no one who has more respect for women than he does.
“And when you’re a star they let you do it,”
The whole horror of fame, wealth, media prominence etc. In a nutshell.
And both the ‘journalist’ and the unfortunate actress (‘it’ in Trump’s language) are playing along. There’s nothing to suggest anything like basic humanity as an option for Trump.
‘Billy’ is obviously more than playing along, he’s a matching dood-bro at the bottom of the ladder. The poor actress hasn’t actually heard what’s been said before. So her professional deer-in-the-headlights tactic is automatic.
Notice how Trump can’t even open the door for himself?
The dude bro at the bottom of the ladder is also a first cousin of the sitting president at the time.
Maek you think.
