Ashley Judd on Donald Trump 2005 tape: "This is who he is"

Source: Mic.com



Ashley Judd is speaking out about Donald Trump in light of the leaked tape on which he makes crude, demeaning comments about women. The actress tweeted Friday that the content of the tape "is who he is," and that she's heard him speak that way about one of his own family member's spouses.

Responding to Trump's non-apology, which journalist Jake Tapper tweeted, Judd held little back. "I never heard him 'apologize' for talking to me and others about his family member's spouse, and especially her breasts," she wrote. "This is who he is."

In response to political news site the Hill's summary of the story, which called the talk on the tape "extreme sexual comments," Judd balked.

"Let's be plain," she tweeted. "He says he 'grabs women by the pussy.'"

All the people Donald has assaulted over the years will come out over the next few days. There are probably 100s of victims.

He's toast.

Running for President doesn't change the person. It reveals the person.

In that sense Ashley Judd is correct - this is who he is and the tape removes all doubt meaning he has been revealed and boy is it ugly.

staffers and operatives, and everyone else who supports (or supported) him. They've had over a year to speak up for their self-proclaimed principles and values, and they've chosen not to.

It's too late for ship-jumping and death-bed forgiveness; you own it, pubbies...
