He didn't brag about sexual exploits. He wasn't engaging in sexual banter. He wasn't uttering sexually aggressive comments.
All descriptions I have seen in the media.
He confessed to, and advocated for, SEXUAL ASSAULT!

And again, I am reminded of how people let the Holocaust happened. It's an appalling phenomenon.

Sounds like assault to me. That's not even getting to the grab pussy part.
He's a cruel man who sees women as nothing but objects to be used for his pleasure. I sincerely hope this is the tipping point that takes him down.

(30,817 posts)I was thinking of the crotch grabbing, but you are right, unwelcome kissing is also an assault and he clearly confessed to it.

(70,582 posts)Trump made her come in and work out in front a bunch of old men after fate shaming
her and then after humiliating an 18 or 19 yr old girl in public she had to sit there and
smile as he kissed on her. That was sadism. And as she was working out in front of
all those strangers Trump stood around and smiled.

(17,276 posts)It can't be a confession until it is proven. The lawsuits filed by several women are harder evidence against him. I'm sure he's done plenty of things that would put him in prison if he weren't so wealthy. But you know you can't take him at his word when he brags about this or how much money he has, or anything else.
