Former Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson on Tuesday stunned a CNN anchor with a defense of Donald Trump's lewd 2005 comments toward women which were captured on a recently leaked tape.

...snip...

"As I was growing up, people were always trying to talk about their sexual conquests and trying to make themselves appear like Casanova," Carson said. "I'm surprised you haven't heard that. I really am."

"I haven't heard it and I know a lot of people who have not heard it," Keilar quipped.

"Maybe that's the problem," Carson said. "Maybe that's the problem."

1. Carson grew up inside a pyramid full of grain. It is a seperate reality like Trumps.

[muntrv]

2. That justifies......NOTHING!

[Thinkingabout]

3. There is not a defense, Trump is not respectful of women.

[Lanius]

4. Ogling a woman is one thing

but talking about sexual assault is completely different. One is "locker room talk" while another is creepy and a crime.

[Cha]

5. I knew he had it in him.. he's gd insane.

I like these rats going down with the

[Scurrilous]

6. Sorry...couldn't resist.

7. Republican Jesus loves him some p%<

[Warren DeMontague]

8. Uh, Trump was like 60 when he made those comments, and what he's bragging about is a criminal act.

[True Dough]

16. Absolutely! Trump wasn't a high school kid or even in college

He should exhibit maturity, even back then. Far from it.

18. Trump is just so crass

It wasn't "I tried to seduce her". It was "I tried to fuck her". A 59 year old NEWLYWED with a "beautiful young piece of ass" at home. And who was he trying to impress? Billy Fucking Bush! The man has no standards. He has no class. He has no taste. Look at his gold lame home.

He reminds me of something Dolly Parton said, " You have no idea how much it costs to look this cheap".

9. "As I was growing up."

Well, Ben, Trump is a grown ass man. At least chronologically.

Developmentally, however, he seems barely out of preschool.

[True Dough]

17. I wish the interviewer would have pointed that out to Carson

but it probably wouldn't have made a difference. Ben is obtuse, just like many Trump supporters.

[spiderpig]

10. Was Carson this detached from reality when he was poking around in other people's brains?

I've never seen him look remotely lucid on camera.

11. Ben has a supporter

13. Kahless the Unforgettable?

The artist did a great job with his forehead ridges, but I'm not sure a warrior would wear that bath robe.

[saltpoint]

14. Ben, you failed miserably as a primary contestant

for your party's nomination.

Now you sound completely insane as a Trump surrogate.

Did you ever find your luggage?

[Rex]

15. So Carson admitted Trump is a womanizer.

We all knew it.

[Motley13]

19. When Ben was growing up, huh, the sniffling maggot was 60 yrs old!!!!

[oberliner]

20. Ben is turning on Trump due to his attacks against Ryan

He will soon be on Donald's tweet hit list.

[Matthew Rose]

21. Stop promoting the "lewd comment" BS

He was plainly stating he engages in sexually assaulting women.

[Bradical79]

23. That's the headline

In the LBN forum you use the exact headline of the article.

[phylny]

22. The videos, the tweets, the print interviews are never going away.

These will all be trotted out each time these men and women who've supported Trump try to run for office the next time.

They can try, "Oh, I supported him, but then I didn't" and be labeled "flip-floppers." They can try to say that he was the "best option." It doesn't matter. The shit-stain of Trumop will never wash out.
