Billy Bush under fire over vulgar Trump tape
CNN ^ | 10/7/2016 | Brian Stelter

Posted on 10/07/2016 3:42:04 PM PDT by edh

"Today" show co-host Billy Bush had no immediate comment about his role chatting with Donald Trump on a vulgar 2005 videotape revealed Friday.

Angry comments piled up on Bush's Facebook page from viewers who were disgusted by the contents of the tape, in which Trump brags in graphic terms about being able to grope women "when you're a star."

The "Today" show Facebook page was also overtaken by hundreds of critical comments. Some viewers said they want Bush to be suspended or fired.

NBC News had no immediate comment on that, either.

I am a very prim and proper 72 yr old woman, of fine breeding. If you think we women do not know that men talk like that in the locker room, and in all guy groups, you are very naive.

We have known boys to talk like this since we were teens, and mostly it is to show off to each other - like gorillas smacking their chests, to show that they are “manly”

I think it is a ridiculous news story, and damages only the newsies and networks that are in all out “clutching pearls mode before they take to their fainting couches”.

And, in the meantime, who has actually done the raping? Not just engaged in guy yakking.

Of course, you, dear snark, have never engaged in such banter?

I wish someone would ask Hillary why Huma sleeps in her room night after night instead of her husband?

Have you heard ANY candidates talking about family values in this election cycle? The silence is absolutely deafening.

He’s the lesser known brother of Jeb and George.

NO!!!

Since I don't want to give this disgusting story additional legs, I refuse to comment further.

seems like uncle Billy to W and Jeb, since your source said Billy Bush is the brother of W and Jeb’s Father, GHW Bush.

Billy Bush is the son of GHW Bush’s brother Jonathan Bush.
He’s a first cousin to George and Jeb Bush.

William Hall Bush was born in Manhattan, New York City, the son of Josephine (née Bradley)
and Jonathan Bush, whose older brother George H. W. Bush was the 41st U.S. president.
Bush attended middle school at St. Bernard’s School and high school at St. George’s School
in Rhode Island and in 1994 he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in International Studies
and Government from Colby College in Waterville, Maine, where he was also a two-time captain
of the college’s men’s lacrosse team.

He resides in Los Angeles with his wife, Sydney Davis, whom he married on April 4, 1998,
and their three daughters: Josephine “Josie”, Mary and Lillie.

Not really. Not for anyone who desires that our country survives. Only democrats and hypocrites will fail to vote for Trump.

A boy or man heavily trying to convince a girl or woman to have sex is something I have been aware of since I was a sixteen year old girl.

To bad the GOP chose to nominate the one candidate who Hillary could beat.

Yet another poster, who hasn’t posted since April, trying to derail the Trump train.

Sad.

Halfwit, I posted in September. However you may notice in my April post a mention of Trump Buyers Remorse.

That being said, the media is going to flog this horse until the cows come home. (Damn I love my mixed metaphors) I only hope the Donald can keep his composure in Sunday's debate and not get knocked off message.

His crew needs to have a well crafted statement to address this as he will undoubtedly have to defend against this again and again on Sunday.

Should we refer to them as Billy Bushies?

Is this like the poker conversation in the 40 year old virgin?
