4:12Now PlayingTrump has changed his mind on the Access Hollywood tape. Cenk Uygur and Brett Erlich, the hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Washington (CNN)Buried in a New York Times piece seeking to explain why President Donald Trump is defending embattled Senate candidate Roy Moore in Alabama is this eye-opening paragraph:
"He sees the calls for Mr. Moore to step aside as a version of the response to the now-famous 'Access Hollywood' tape, in which he boasted about grabbing women's genitalia, and the flood of groping accusations against him that followed soon after. He suggested to a senator earlier this year that it was not authentic, and repeated that claim to an adviser more recently. (In the hours after it was revealed in October 2016, Mr. Trump acknowledged that the voice was his, and he apologized.)"
Uh, what?
In case you took up residence on another planet last fall, the existence of the "Access Hollywood" tape -- in which Trump can be heard telling Billy Bush that women let you do anything to them when you are a "star" -- was first reported by The Washington Post in early October. It immediately set off a firestorm in the presidential race, with scads of Republican elected officials rescinding their support for Trump and calling on him to leave the race.
He, of course, did not. What he did do, however, was apologize for the comments -- writing them off as "locker room talk" and adding: "Bill Clinton has said far worse to me on the golf course — not even close."
