He was smack talking and bragging. Did he really actually touch anyone? He said he "could" but that's different than actually doing it. I've heard men say worse, but know it was all bluster.

I too think it's likely there are other tapes. After all, we have Trump on tape admitting--boasting--that he assaulted multiple women and tried to bed a married woman (Nancy O'Dell), whom he later tried to have fired after she refused his advances. Based on his statements, it seems unlikely this was a phase he went through.

Also, I think it's very interesting that Sarah Palin--formerly one of his most vocal supporters--has been strangely silent for months now. Palin loves to be in the media. She had her own cable show for a while. You'd think she would be tweeting or commenting in Trump's defense these past weeks.

Makes you wonder what he might have done to alienate Ms. Palin....

He didn't say "could." He said this:

"I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. I just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything."

First, kissing someone without their permission or interest is assault. But the next sentence he utters is also telling:

"...Grab them by the p****. You can do anything."

The last verb he used before "grab" is "can"--from the "You can do anything" statement. So he's saying these are things that one as a star can get away with. Now how would one assert that unless he'd done so himself?

Note that when he made his infamous "I could shoot people in the middle of Fifth Avenue" statement, he did say "could," because he was speaking theoretically. But on the bus he said "can." Not may. Not might. Not could. "You CAN do anything" -- as in, groping women in their crotch is behavior he's established for certain that he as a TV star can (and by implication does) get away with.

Probably not, but it's his cross to bear.

He never said he did, just that he could, because of fame.

People might be willing to accept that - if it were not that he has a 30-year history of saying stuff like that, and a history of actually screwing around.

Also, there are women who say Trump assaulted them:
