It's Worth Watching The Actual Trump Video, Here's Why
Vanity

Posted on 10/07/2016 10:37:44 PM PDT by Williams

Just saw the entire Trump / Billy Bush tape on CNN and it was an eye opener versus reading the transcript.

I admit I was worried about the impact of the transcript, and still am. But ... after watching and listening, it is 100% obvious Trump was goofing and giggling around, being silly, light-hearted and playful, and Billy Bush was giggling uncontrollably because Trump was being totally silly to entertain him.

Even the story about pursuing some married woman was pretty lightly related, but that part did sound like it's based on a real life Donald attempted and failed flirtation.

The rest of it was NOT any kind of serious statement about being able to "grope" women. He is joking about taking a tic tac in case he uncontrollably starts kissing beautiful women. That's when the laughing starts. Then it's a bunch of sophomoric playing about how "stars" can do anything they want and women allow it, including grabbing their *****. His audience is agreeing and giggling along throughout because they are being silly together.

This horseplay continues with Trump joking about how he best not fall out of the bus like the time Gerald Ford fell over.

You can criticize him for playing around and joking in a crass way, but it was all silly boys' talk. This was not even remotely a serious comment about kissing women without permission or anything like it. The whole thing was a joke and I defy anyone listening to it to say otherwise.

Yes it does matter, most of us with a sense of humor have entertained men and women alike by being completely and outrageously silly, and that's what this was.

You have a very valid point. Trump may have said something more sincere and whoever produced the tape edited it out.

Women attacking him may regret it as he shut that slut Machado up quickly by exposing her!

unwarranted profanity Hilliary threw at her Secret Service detail

Boys kidding around is much more normal than a first lady cursing at secret service agents and soldiers.

I just watched the video; yes, it is much tamer IMO when you actually see the footage and hear the entire episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuHPRYkMEwI

What a nothingburger.

“Hilliary enabled a rapist to become President.”

She most certainly did.

And now, the LEFT continues to shield them both .. but I think the Clinton Foundation explains it all .. the LEFT/MEDIA have skin in the game; so if she goes down so do they.

No wonder the LEFT/MEDIA supports her.

Is there still a C after Hitlery’s name? Then, I am voting for Trump.

The trouble with Bolshecrats, is they can’t spell Communist.

If you ever plan to run for office, never bullshit around with the guys if there’s a camera running.

Just another illegal video from the Dems, the party of lawlessness.

I agree completely and anyone who’s not a prude has heard this talk from guys at one point or another and it’s totally harmless BSing talk. Nothing more. Something guys with a bit of an ego do in humor to entertain other guys. There’s a few real a-holes that don’t care who’s around when they talk like this but Trump’s got more style than that.

The important takeaway is Trump says, "they allow you to do it. That means CONSENT. As opposed to the rapes and sexual attacks of bill Clinton that Hillary actively assisted after the fact, by contacting the victims, and by lying and blame-shifting.

Sounds like they were not going to vote for Trump no matter what. Am I wrong?
