Infamous Trump Tape Played in Protest

That tape, the one that caused so much fuss about a year ago and incidentally did nothing to hinder Trump’s ascension to POTUS status, is to be played on loop outside the White House. For 12 hours.

If you’ve no idea what we’re on about, in the infamous video, our dear POTUS said:

‘You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful—I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ’em by the [female genitalia].’

The president brushed the controversy off by claiming it was ‘locker room’ talk.

Obviously, this is total trash and the guy is a sexist pig.

UltraViolet, a group dedicated to fighting sexism, is ensuring that we never forget it.

They spoke to Newsweek, with Shaunna Thomas saying that the main goal is to remind people of Trump’s colours:

‘Donald Trump on that tape is the same Donald Trump that sits in the Oval Office every day, aggressively pursuing an anti-woman agenda, including the active dismantling of legal protections for survivors of sexual assault.’

Good.

Never forget that the man in the White House is a closeted racist, transphobic piece of garbage.

Until next time people.
