It's October... surprise! We got him on tape, and it is glorious!

[tinrobot]

I really think this tape has been held for quite a while and released just before the debates for maximum effect. It looks to be a perfect example of an October surprise.

If so, the Clinton campaign is operating on grand master level.

Is there any indication as to who released the tape?

1. Link? Context?

2. I thought everyone knew by now...

Here's a DU thread:

5. NP ... yours was simply the first "OMG Trump is TOAST OP" I saw ...

... I still have not SEEN the video ... but after seeing your OP and looking around DU, I have also never seen DU go this crazy ... this video has to be insane!!!

I'm going to leave my current location so I can get to a place with TV.

Whatever this is, it sounds awesome!!!!

9. Turn on MSNBC. They could hardly interrupt themselves to talk about the hurricane...

The clip is from a show owned by NBC, so it's straight out of their own vaults. They played that thing over and over and over from start to finish, each time prefacing it with a straight-faced disclaimer about the lewd language. The lewd comments, btw, are crystal clear despite the bleeps. When the captions read "I want to grab her by the P*****" and "I went at her pretty hard; I wanted to F*** her" it doesn't take a genius to figure it out. He had been married to Melania for 8 months at the time.

What a prince.

6. See the 14 other posts on this. It appears...

... tRump was caught on open mic talking about how being a star allows him to have his way with the women he respects so much. Even the married ones. And apparently their cats, too.

7. yea ... I'm starting to clue in ... this OP was the first one I saw ...

... so I wasn't sure what it was ... but apparently, this is HUUUUUUUUUUUGE!!!!!!!

[Hekate]

10. Yeah, huuuge like the fake T*** of the married woman he tried and failed to F***

Apologies, but that's the transcript that appears on the bottom of the screen -- *** indicates the bleeps, obviously.

3. Hey, Donnie! The Bush family says, "Hi!"

It looks like it takes a Bush to undo the myth of Trump.

8. Billy Bush... of course!

I didn't make that connection.

13. Billy Bush Deletes His Twitter Account After Recording Of His Crude Conversation With Donald Trump

is Leaked.

https://www.bustle.com/articles/188443-billy-bush-deletes-his-twitter-account-after-recording-of-his-crude-conversation-with-donald-trump-is

A video was obtained and leaked by The Washington Post revealing a lewd and sexist conversation with Donald Trump and a former Access Hollywood host. That host, Billy Bush, deleted his Twitter account after the video was released. Apparently, the pressure of the world knowing what you really think about women was too much for Bush.

It was a cowardly move for Bush, who so easily made comments about a woman being "hot as s--t" and enthusiastically responded to Trump after he bragged about his casual (and incessant) sexual pursuit of women. Trump told Bush that because he's a celebrity he can do whatever he wants — whether that's when Trump wants to "grab [women] by the p---y" or "just kiss" women without asking or waiting for consent. It's a disgusting way for men to even think about interacting with women that way, and hearing Trump and Bush say these things out loud made the entire conversation as lewd as I'd feared.

By deleting his Twitter account, Bush is quite literally hiding from his problems and trying to evade accountability for his (very sexist) actions. He was certainly not shy about participating in a crude conversation about women's bodies with Trump while he was on that Access Hollywood bus back in 2005; seems things have changed, and he's not as "manly" as he clearly believed himself to be in that video.

14. pretty much to dismiss this as "locker room" talk if you have any respect for women at all

and then spin that Bill Clinton said the same to him on the golf course....what a hoot. The audio now CONFIRMS what all the allegations of said about trump by women

can't be denied any more
