What he said was that he had kissed women without their consent. That is a confession to sexual assault. Worse he said that he simply grabbed women by the pussy. That is sexual assault.

A link to the transcript below.

US election: Full transcript of Donald Trump's obscene videotape - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-us-2016-37595321

Is that really what you understood by reading the transcript? You may want to watch/listen to the video to hear context. It was clearly vulgar "locker room" style talk. He never once said he actually grabbed any woman's lady parts. His speaking about kissing women was not literal, it was him puffing up with other men in private.. The simple idea that his vulgar inuendos and testosterone ridden cutting up with the boys on the bus is somehow sexual assault boggles my mind.

Though my guess most blokes will have said something at least as bad to their mates, and we just don't find ourselves in the awkward spot of having been recorded and trying to then justify our comments on a global scale. The more worrying thing for Trump though isn't just those comments, but that many people will believe he believes those comments and that they represent an acceptable way for him to behave, indeed they represent how he still behaves.

Also if he's going to go after Bill then he'll have to avoid noting his wife has forgiven him, else it'd look somewhat daft to put a wife's forgiveness to the fore and then attack Hillary as a forgiving wife. Mind he doesn't seem to worry about looking daft.

Most blokes may have said something that women may find offensive at some point, but I would guess it would've been when they are 18, 19, 20 and in some situation where bravado is to the fore, locker room, pub, that sort of thing. While it isn't nice, it's at least understandable as part of the growing up process. Trouble is, acknowledging that will be taken as a defence for Trumpeter.

The difference is that for married 59 year old family men to be saying something like what DT said is beyond pathetic, and absolutely represent that man's character. One isn't going to get any more mature after one has passed the age of 59, at that point one has become the man one is going to be, hence people would be 100% correct in thinking that those comments genuinely reflect the man who wants to be president.

I'm speaking of my own gender's ridiculous hypocritical reaction to something I happen to think is trivial.

I'm amazed that you think sexual assault is trivial.

What boggles my mind is that such a massive thundercunt is anywhere near major political office. Good luck climbing the corporate ladder ladies....it is littered with pig fuckers like Trump.

Obviously you are entitled to take him at his word when he says it was all talk and he didn't really do that sort of thing. There is evidence to the contrary though...
