Topic: Billy Bush (the other guy from the Trump "grab them by the pussy" video) has been fired from NBC.
Metæ started this discussion 10 years ago #56,211
Well, "suspended indefinitely" but that is just a more polite way of saying it. He didn't even mention pussies, or kissing. I really think this is a bit much. All Billy Bush said was "your girl is hot as shit in the purple" and "The Donald has scored!". I think you'd struggle to find a man who hasn't described a woman as "hot as shit" or similar at least once in his life. Billy Bush did nothing wrong.

It means "very sexually attractive". "As shit" is often used as an adjective to provide emphasis for example: "math class is boring as shit" means math class is very boring. "as hell" or "as fuck" can also be used the same way.

1 guy vs the delicate feelings of certain viewers. What do you think matters more to them? This is where I see appeal in trump. Him getting elected could show that it's okay to get offended and a lot less serious to be offensive. As opposed to a world where you have to watch your mouth in private because before you know it, mob justice is demanded.

@previous (Denmark guy !jJEom8Ii3E)Pussy grabbing is an important evolutionary trait for our leaders, and men in general.

They fired him because when Donald Trump said you can grab women by the pussy he said "yeah". The correct answer is no. It is not a hard or trick question.

Wasn't a question at all and especially not about if you can do it, if anything it's about if they let you do it if you are a star.
Trump: when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.
Billy: (chuckling) ah yeah those legs. All i can see is those legs.

Yeah it's definitely a PR move in part but Billy bush was letting Trump say really foul things including that he can get away with sexually assaulting women and all Billy bush can do is talk about the legs of some woman walking by. He's gross and my guess is no female anchor or employee wants him anywhere near them. So he goes bye-bye.

Kissing, sex or grabbing a woman by the pussy, is not inherently sexual assault. It's only when it's without consent. And he clearly talked about how they let him do it.

I could have a whole conversation with you about how he could have intimidated those women and forced himself on them. Or about how inherently, profoundly misogynistic what he said was. But I already know that you won't understand any of that.

But is a noncommittal "yeah" really a sincere endorsement of another person's words? Is it possible that Billy Bush found the much larger, much more wealthy and much more powerful Trump+entourage (he apparently had a bodyguard and publicist on the bus too) intimidating and felt pressured into following the tone Trump set for the conversation?

What he means by that is when a gross overweight 68 year old real estate tycoon billionaire shoved his fingers in an unsuspecting 25 year old woman's cooch, she didn't immediately say "No you do not have my consent to do that" and push his hands away. Which is NOT the same thing as consenting.

why are you always on the wrong side of things? you'd maybe have a point except for the growing number of women who say he has sexually assaulted them in the exact manner described in the pussy grabbing video. a makeup artist who worked with him in the 80s was assaulted on 3 different occasions, once even trying to rape her in his daughters bedroom. there are more than one witnesses, he's been caught admitting it on video, every bit of his behavior reinforces this kind of admission as being true.
if not for all the women saying he sexually assaulted them, you'd be right about them "letting him." but in reality, where real people live, he molested them.

You don't make inappropriate comments in inappropriate places. Plus with a name like Bush he probably grabs the pussy often. You would know this if you graduated third grade.

well, we don't know who actually leaked that video, tbh. do we? i figure billy bush might've kept a copy and been the one to leak it. someone leaked it, and he might've lost his job over that rather than for his actions in the video. i mean, if anyone was going to remember that it would be the dude trump was talking to, so i wouldn't be surprised if he went through the archives if nothing else and leaked a copy. but yeah, i doubt he got fired over what was being said since billy didn't say anything wrong. he just kinda baited trump into talking more. maybe, maybe the chick he told to give trump a hug got super pissed after hearing the audio from moments before - it was almost like billy was helping to set up a scenario where trump might follow through, which actually would've been a pretty dick move to put a co-worker knowingly in the cross hairs of a sex monster. so maybe he got fired for that, but i kinda doubt that. if i was to bet, i'd bet billy was the leak.

If a Bush (and Billy Bush is Jeb! Bush's cousin) had that tape it would have been leaked during the primary. Again, whether Trump wins or loses the tape does Jeb! no good at this point.

Billy Bush was pretty prescient then, to not only see that Trump was gonna run for president, but have the foresight to sabotage Trump's campaign 11 years before it started.

what? are you saying i insinuated the tape was a setup? no dude, trump was talking and billy just egged him on. like, for jollies. you know? you got some big shot being a retard -egg him on, see what else he'll say. see what i mean? i'm not implying some kind of backward time traveling billy bush or anything stupid. backward time travel doesn't work reliably enough to use it for anything. at best you'll end up in an era with a breathable atmosphere. it's simple physics bro, billy just wanted to see if he'd grope that chick.
