Trump, comparing sex to Vietnam, said in 1998 he should receive the Congressional Medal of Honor

Source: cnn

In a previously unreported 1998 interview with Howard Stern, Donald Trump compared sex to going to battle in Vietnam and joked he should be getting the Congressional Medal of Honor.

In the May 7, 1998 appearance, obtained and reviewed by CNN's KFile, Trump also said "women are worse than men, they're more sexually aggressive than men," adding, "If they're married they're even worse."

Trump also spoke at length about his Miss Universe contest, telling Stern and co-host Robin Quivers, "we don't base it on talent, we don't base it on brains."

Trump's past comments on women and sex have received renewed scrutiny after a 2005 "Access Hollywood" tape surfaced last week in which Trump brags about doing anything he wants to women — including grabbing them by the genitals — because he's a star. Trump has called those comments "locker room talk," but did apologize for them in a video statement.

But now with PussyGate, it's getting some attention. I find that disturbing.

Would help save the nation? And if women are so aggressive, why does he have to force himself on them? I guess he really believes every one of us is dying to have contact with him.

Because he believed they were going to help, who served in the special forces and whose heart was broken, and who was a lifelong Democrat, would truly despise this trumster fire.
