Mr Trump, Grabbing Women “By the P***y” Isn’t “Locker Room Talk”

Trump is like Christian Grey — a billionaire who gets away with a lot because of his money (and being a white male).

In today’s edition of “How is America taking Donald Trump seriously?”, disturbing and unfortunate (yet unsurprising) comments have come to light, only exposing more of Trump’s misogyny and megalomania.

The Washington Post released a video where while in coversation with Billy Bush in 2005, Donald Trump said:

“When I see a beautiful woman, I automatically start kissing her, I don’t even ask. When you’re a celebrity, they let you do whatever you want. I can just grab them by the p***y.”

Yes. These are the words of a presidential candidate. Generally something you would hear on Savdhaan India - the sensational crime show.

A lot is being said on Twitter against him (and unsurprisingly in his defence) and Trump also released a childish apology, but not without blaming someone else:

Most Insincere Apology Ever?

Yes, just when you think him telling terminally ill people to “hang around” till voting day wasn’t a reflection of his garbage character, he released an apology so insincere, you’d wonder if he really is made of tin (like a dumpster).

Was It Just “Locker Room Talk”?

More Like Sexual Assault Perhaps?

Does he Deserve The Defence?

With a support base comprising such white men, you really understand why feminism, and abolishing the Ku Klux Klan is important.

Can Hillary Grab the Votes Now?

And perhaps Trump can go as far away from politics as possible and make America ‘great’ again?
