Donald Trump caught making vulgar comments in 2005: ‘When you're a star. You can do anything' to women | |
(35 minutes later) | |
A newly resurfaced recording of Donald Trump was published on Friday where the real estate mogul bragged that he can do anything he wants to women. | |
The Washington Post obtained audio from a conversation in 2005 that was picked up on a hot mic by Access Hollywood. While speaking with Billy Bush, Mr Trump describes being turned down by a married woman and that he can grab women whenever and wherever he wants. | |
“I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping,” he continued. “She wanted to get some furniture. I said, ‘I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.’” | |
“I moved on her like a b****, but I couldn’t get there. And she was married,” Trump said. “Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.” | |
In the footage, Mr Trump and Mr Bush notice Arianne Zucker, an actress who was waiting to greet them. | |
“I’ve gotta use some tic tacs, just in case I start kissing her,” Trump says.“You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.” | |
“And when you’re a star they let you do it,” Trump says. “You can do anything… Grab 'em by the p****.” | |
He also describes the woman as having "big phony tits" and said she was acting "like a b****." | |
Shortly after the audio resurfaced on Friday, the Trump campaign issued an apology to those who were offended by the private conversation. | |
“This was locker room banter, a private conversation that took place many years ago,” his campaign said in a statement. “Bill Clinton has said far worse to me on the golf course - not even close. I apologize if anyone was offended.” | |
Meanwhile, his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton issued a quick response to the video, "This is horrific. We cannot allow this man to become president." |
