Of course, there is a "context," as Spence would say, to that brief video excerpt. But let's just disregard that so that we can be outraged or indignant or condescending, or, we might say, hateful.

The "context" here is that Trump is once again just saying stupid things to get media attention. Hey, it's worked so far...
This though is not rude, crude, bigoted or misogynistic, it's just really really creepy.

And having a child actor at your Townhall ask a scripted question about how Donald Trump has hurt young girls feelings isn't creepy at all .

Hilary enabled a predator of women, she lied to the country to defend him (saying bill was the innocent victim of the vast right wing conspiracy). Hilary referred to his victims as looney tones, bimbos, and trailer trash. Bill Clinton remains enormously popular with democrats. And the same people who are calling out trump are the ones who kept Ted Kennedy in the senate for 85 years. So when exactly did the democratic opposition to crass treatment of women have its genesis?
Trump is an absolute obnoxious jerk. No one can deny that. But let's not pretend that she is noticeably better. Her choice of language isn't as crass as his, but for damned sure she threw women under the bus when it suited her, now I'm supposed to believe she's the second coming of Gloria Allred. Dems defended bill Clinton and Ted Kennedy, it's a wee bit late for them to start clutching their pearls now

Oh, yeah. Bill Clinton. And Hillary calling his prey "bimbos." I can imagine Bill sitting back with some buds and a cigar talking about his conquests. There were those who actually praised his sexual exploits as being indicators of a strong alpha male type whose prowess would actually make him a superior President. How did he do as President?
Are you really that naïve? You don't think many powerful men who have succeeded well in life don't like to brag? Oh, yeah . . . ditto for unsuccessful men.
Apparently you and wdmso consider stuff like this as those "other issues" beside my one-note-Johnny concern over who will appoint SCOTUS judges.
Yeah --wow, just wow.

You got the context totally wrong. And what he said, in the actual context, was not creepy.
What is creepy is your constant attempt to play the Trump is not Presidential card by bringing up what various anti-Trump media dig up from whatever grave-yard of useless information they can find. Somehow these supposedly scandalous tidbits are supposed to make Trump unfit to be President.
Really?
