I grew up in the late 1970s and 1980s in New York City. I have been waiting for Donald Trump’s comeuppance for about 30 years. What can be said about Donald Trump that hasn’t already been scrawled with a pocket knife into a gas station bathroom wall? Not much. He was a pig in the 1980s. He was a pig in the 1990s. He was a pig in the 2000s. He’s still a rich pig of a man.
Anderson Cooper started the questions off by asking Donald Trump about his “lewd” statements with Billy Bush in a tabloid television show tour bus. The one where he said being famous allowed him to grab a woman’s “pussy.”
I don't think you understood. This was locker room talk. I am not proud of it. I apologized to my family and the American people. I am not proud of it. This is locker room talk. When you have ISIS chopping off heads and drowning people in steel cages and wars and horrible, horrible sights all over and you have so many bad things happening, this is like medieval times. The carnage all over the world and they look and see, can you imagine the people that are frankly doing so well against us with ISIS and they look at our country and see what's going on. I am embarrassed by it and I hate it, but it's locker room talk and one of those things.
The term “pussy” for a woman’s vagina is a term used in “locker rooms.” It’s a slang term used a lot by pubescent boys. I know I used it when I was a kid. When I was younger I heard boys use it all of the time; but that kind of sexual slang was never used to boast of rape fantasies real or imagined to anyone—because that is fucking gross. That’s the kind of stuff a serial killer says.
