His comments were lewd and lascivious, to be sure, and certainly not something a presidential candidate should ever have said. But the comments were not about sexual assault.
I apologize if this helps Trump but I know how important facts are to some of you.

This is what I've been saying the whole time. If you actually listen to what Donald Trump said and take your rape culture hearing aids out for a second, you will realize what he actually said. Trump DID NOT say "I can do whatever I want to women because I'm famous". He said "women will let you do anything (when you're famous)". Those statements might sound the same but they are entirely different statements.
Besides that, what's interesting to me is the fact that nobody is talking about what happened once Trump and Bush got off the bus. Did anyone notice how Bush was the one telling that woman to give Trump a hug and then continued trying to egg on a conversation with that same woman they were walking with asking whether she'd go with him or Donald? Trump looked like he didn't want to have any part of that conversation yet no one seems to be noticing this.
