Donald Trump caught on hot mic bragging about sexually assaulting women

[EliteLX]

This election is so over that over cant properly describe how over it is.

Them trying to defend this will continue to make it even more over than it already is.

[ProudModerate2]

As seen over New Year's Day Rose Parade 2016 in Pasadena, California.
Skywriting spells out "TRUMP IS DISGUSTING" ....

[Suburbia]

He's raw. However, could a female candidate get away from something like this if she every said something like this about men?

[rafta_rafta]

Paul Ryan just signed a sexual assault bill.

This is going to be delicious if reporters are going to ask him about them "Grab them  by the pu**y" comments tomorrow

[Lemmiwinks]

As a women, i find it deeply disgusting, upsetting and rude the way he bragged about it, but to be honest, arent most men with power or influence like that? Jimmy carter, Bill Clinton, Sarkozy, Francois Hollande, etc.

Its a shame that it became a norm for Men with power to use and abuse women,

I genuinely feel sorry for Melania, she seem like a nice person and she have rightly distanced herself from this campaign.  

As for the election, women will continue to loathe him,

When did Jimmy Carter ever say anything close to this?

Not trying to be argumentative, but don't recall ever hearing anything like this from the Southern Baptist....

"I've looked on a lot of women with lust. I've committed adultery in my heart many times." Jimmy carter

so much for being a man of faith

That's a pretty PG way of saying something like that. He may have been a mediocre president, but I don't think it's rational to hold that quote against him, or to equate it with what Trump said.

early look at NY Daily News front page:

Hyperventilating atm.

He's a ladies man. What do you expect ladies men to be, weak sissies? Trump is not a sissy. He may be done, but I'm sure Hillary has said lewd and seductive things to men before she married Bill Clinton.

Your idea of "strength" is disturbing.

Do you think Clinton could get with talking about grabbing random dudes by the dick? She'd be flayed alive.

[rafta_rafta]

lol at comparing French politics with American ones, especially when talking about the conservative party nominee. Attitudes about sex are much more liberal in France and this kind of comment would have buried any french politician as well

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

Trump is a very unmaculine man's idea of masculinity.

no.

[seb_pard]

He is gross, a grotesque man. Honestly, I can't understand how a decent human being can support this guy.

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Anyone care to bet that next week, after he's defended himself with "I said it but I never did it." Team Clinton pulls out one or more women Trump sexually assaulted?

[Mike88]

Frankly, i don't know how Kellyanne Conway can spin this. This is just..... God!

[Mike Thick]

You know, I used to rib Clark in IRC about how he would always call Trump "the rapist." It looks like he's been completely vindicated.

[Helsinkian]

If there were a hot mic tape of Hillary Clinton describing how she grabbed some guy's c**k, do you think the Trump campaign wouldn't be all over it?

And Trump was married while he said this. And he was talking about a married woman.

Sigh, this is the third time I'm saying it, I'm not comparing by an means, I just gave random examples.

You are comparing vastly different situations

1) Jimmy Carter gave one freaking interview to playboy where he admitted to having lust in his heart. It's a nothing issue that was highlighted only because of his evangelical background

2) Francois hollande or Sarkozy's marriages and affairs could have been a big deal in American politics but are fairly routine in French society.

What Trump said is in a totally different ballpark to these situations. Imagine a United States President saying "grab her by the pussy" and getting caught on video.

I'm not talking Donald Trump strength. I'm talking about being a real, muscular man, not small and weak.

[RI]

Wait isn't realisticidealist some sort of religious? And he's defending a guy bragging about raping women while his newly wed wife is pregnant with his son? lmao

I'm not defending his comments, only how and when they've been interjected into political discourse. His comments are of course reprehensible and disgusting.

I think that would actually humanize her. For real.

I hadn't realized it was that bad.

I could never believe my opinion of Drumpf could get any lower.

Why?

Political fallout of this already being felt:

Republican Sen. Kelly Ayotte says Donald Trump’s lewd comments about women are “totally inappropriate and offensive.”

What will Ryan and Pence do?

But just a couple of days ago Ayotte said Trump was a role model for kids.
