A 2005 video of Donald Trump using lewd and sexually aggressive language in discussing women emerged Friday.
The video, obtained by the Washington Post and quickly aired on US cable television, captures Trump bragging about groping and trying to have sex with women, including someone who was already married. Watch the video below:
The three-minute video features Trump discussing, in lewd terms, discusses grabbing women with impunity.
“When you’re a star they let you do it,” he says. “Grab them by the pussy,” Trump adds. “You can do anything.”
The tape was shot as Trump arrived on the set of a daytime soap opera, “Days of Our Lives,” for a taping of a segment in which he was to have a cameo, the Post said.
He was speaking with Billy Bush, a host of the “Access Hollywood” show about celebrities, as they arrived on board a bus with the show’s name written on the side.
“I moved on her and I failed. I’ll admit it,” Trump, a celebrity billionaire and real estate mogul, is heard saying in the video, then using an expletive for sex.
“Whoa,” another voice says.
“I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn’t get there. And she was married,” Trump says.
The tape was recorded in September 2005, months after Trump married his third wife, Melania, according to the Post.
Trump and Bush are heard discussing Arianne Zucker, an actress who met them as they got off the bus.
“I’ve gotta use some Tic Tacs, just in case I start kissing her,” Trump says.
“You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them,” he adds.
Watch part of the video below:
The video, which emerged barely one month before Election Day November 8, led to a rare Trump apology.
In the apology, a serious looking Trump says,
“I’ve said and done things I regret … and the words released today in this more than a decade old video are one of them.” Trump continues, “I said it, I was wrong … and I apologize.”
Of course Trump didn’t miss the opportunity to take jabs at the Clintons, saying,
“Bill Clinton has abused women, and Hillary Clinton has bullied, attacked, shamed and intimidated his victims.”
Trump ends with, “See you at the debate on Sunday.”
Acess Holly has now identified the woman Trump boasted about in the video as Nancy O’Dell.
O’Dell, now host of “Entertainment Tonight,” was Billy Bush’s co-host on “Access Hollywood” in 2005, the year the now-surfaced video was shot.
It has also been revealed that Donald Trump reportedly tried to have host Nancy O’Dell fired from hosting the Miss USA beauty pageant in 2007 because he didn’t like the way she looked while pregnant.
Nancy is still married to her husband Keith Zubulevich and they have 3 kids together. They even celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary last year with a vow renewal.
Could this be the death blow to Donald Trumps dream of becoming President? Time I guess will tell.
He’s said it before, that he’s not perfect, truth is no one and I mean absolutely nobody is perfect…
Let him who is without sin cast the first stone…
