We need to fix that. Watch it on YouTube and express your dislike (assuming you dislike it)

5. He's really not going to like the New York Daily News front page tomorrow.

and if he thinks this is going to be the last leak he's got to face, he's kidding himself.

Most of us knew a hot mike was going to get him.

He will be under intense pressure to quit, the GOP leadership salivating over a Pence/Ryan ticket. I don't think he will. His narcissism won't allow it.

15. Some People Say......

There is a lot worse out there from Trump and it is going to be leaked in coming weeks. How many women are going to come out now with stories like these? He apologized for the LANGUAGE, not his actual behavior at the time this was happening. As we speak, reporters are tracking down the woman referenced in this video.

and she's confirmed it. Another woman has anonymously confirmed his TicTac habit, only said he insisted she eat a couple, too, before he launched himself at her.

I was a nurse so the language didn't make me flinch. What disgusts me is his sense of entitlement to the body of any woman who comes near him.

6. WELL, that changes everything. He lived his life one way for 70 years but today he only has to say

he is sorry and it changes him for the rest of his life. What a fake, no, in the past months Trump has continued to make disparaging remarks about women and other people, this is Trump, he can change for a few minutes while reading the teleprompter and then he is right back to being Trump.

7. The sincerity in that apology went over like a lead balloon

As a woman, I can find it in myself to forgive a man, who makes vile and vulgar comments about women, IF AND ONLY IF, he truly regrets and repents such behavior. But I'm not buying it. Not from Trump. Every psychologist in the world will tell us that the best predicter of future behavior is past behavior. Trump is not forgiven in my heart and in the hearts of many many American women. We are so tired of being seen as nothing more than sexual objects for male lust. What would make me begin to consider forgiving him? He could donate $10 million to Planned Parenthood. He could donate another $10 million to women's safe refuge houses around the country. He could resign fro the GOP ticket. None of which he will do.

HE COULD FUCKING SHOOT SOMEONE DEAD IN THE STREETS, AND PEOPLE WOULD STILL VOTE FOR HIM AND CALL HIM THE GREATEST...

How about a little DU magic to bring this video down to a negative?

canned response. He still believes women should be honored to have him grope them. He makes maggot filled pig shit seem golden.

18. Not Just What He Said
Sat Oct 8, 2016, 05:12 PM

This is not just about what he said; this is about what he did. He did more than just say some lewd things. He tried to have sex with a married woman. Was he married when he tried to have sex with the married woman? Then, when the woman turned him down he tried to get her fired. In addition, that is likely not the first or last time Donald Trump has done that to women. There have been multiple women who have claimed Donald Trump touched them without their consent. Erin Burnett supposedly stated that one of her friends told her that she (the friend) was kissed by Donald Trump without her consent. Furthermore, there is a allegation that Trump had sex with and raped a 13 year old girl. The female making that allegation has also claimed that Trump threatened that if she reported the rape he kill her family and while threatening her made reference to a 12 year old girl, that Trump had also allegedly had sex with, who he had made disappear. Moreover, Trump's first ex-wife, at one point, claimed he violently raped and assaulted her during their marriage.

This is not just about something that happened 11 years ago. Erin Burnett reported that the kissing incident between Donald Trump and her friend happened in 2010. At that point Trump had been married since 2005. Along with kissing the woman, Trump gave her a cell phone and asked her to call him. The woman claims she left the room as soon as she could.

Finally, Donald Trump continues to treat women disrespectfully. During the Republican Party primary season Trump insulted both Megan Kelly and Carly Fiorina. Just a few weeks ago he insulted former Miss Universe Alicia Muchado.
