NO, it isn't. Assault requires unwanted contact. Trump's remarks, while hardly something I condone as they are vulgar, hold that these women "let" him do this due to his fame. That implies consent, whether you like to admit it or not.

There you have it. Touching a woman's genitals "IS" assault.

These people will stop at nothing in their attempt to smear and sabotage Trump! Luckily, it has gotten so old and overdone now that few of us take much note any more, just like all the other Alinski-ite tactics. Of course, then we will be blamed for not caring or being deplorable idiots. Typical. Let them do it .. won't matter except they will be the fools in the end.

Who in their right mind thinks Trump ever did this? He's not a stupid man, he knows that would haul him into court. Bragging, locker room talk has been happening between men since the cave men talked together.

So, again.... what someone says, is now assault?

please tell me you're trying to be difficult on purpose, because if you're not smart enough to know the difference between the two situations, well then you must be a Republican then!
Funny how the right will stoop to absurd levels like this to excuse their parties actions. If a Dem did what Trump did, you'd be filling your Pampers, but I'm not shocked that anyone who treats his wife like a piece of meat would defend and excuse Trump's behavior. Birds of a feather.

Classy, a true "man's man" Explains a LOT

He didn't say these women allowed him to grab them. He said that when he approaches them, he will grab them by the P.... implying that he will take his chances and assess whether they will allow him to do it or not. That is assault.

My favorite is the guy who said he grabs his wifes boobs every night. As if that is the same thing as walking up to a a stranger and grabbing her by the p...

You guys really take this homerism concept to a new level. Now, walking up to and grabbing a girl by the p that you have never met is not assault.

Then again one of your people was arguing that Vladimir Putin is a man of God. The former KGB agent and communist who is avowed atheist is a man of God.

I suppose you guys are capable of trying to arguing anything.

LOL.

Joe Biden all of sudden thinks he is running for President.

Probably isn't aware the election was over 1.5 months ago.

You're getting all the separate incidents confused. There was a woman who "let" him because a contract she'd signed with him for a work-related project might have been jeopardized if she'd refused him (subtle blackmail, if you will), but there were women who were NOT ok with suddenly being grabbed, out of nowhere, complete surprise, which is how assault generally works: usually completely unexpected.
