Related: About this forumMelania Says Donald's Pussygate Remarks Were All Billy Bush's Fault...
Trump would gain more by taking responsibility for his behavior, but instead he trots his wife out to redirect blame elsewhere..
With only 22 days left in the campaign, Melania Trump did her best today to defend her husband, telling CNN that Donald's "grab 'em by the pussy" remark was actually all Billy Bush's fault:
Melania Trump says her husband was "egged on" in the 2005 tape in which he made lewd comments about his own sexually aggressive behavior toward women...."And as you can see from the tape, the cameras were not on it was only a mic. And I wonder if they even knew that the mic was on," she said, referring to Trump and NBC's "Access Hollywood" host Billy Bush.
She said they were engaged in "boy talk, and he was led on like, egged on from the host to say dirty and bad stuff."

does she know that her husband is seventy ffffing years OLD?
boys and girls?
I know he also has a predilection for young girls, but I don't think she was getting at that
also, she sounds REALLY stupid, her infelicity with English notwithstanding
typical empty headed model, who never had to do anything with her life but look great
sorry, but that's the way she sounds to me

(1,574 posts)People that apologize or make up dumb excuses for him are enablers. He was a 60 yo man saying these things. He was actually bragging about things he DID.
