He’s joking about sexual assault. He’s mocking every woman who has survived sexual assault, including his own victims.
And honest to God, when people like @ericmetaxas, @JerryJrFalwell,
& company inevitably leap to his defense, I can’t help but wonder why they’re so invested in normalizing this grab-em-by-the-pussy-and-laugh-about-it sexual ethic. Watch out for men like that.

I know without a doubt that if my husband was with a group of guys and one of them made a racist comment followed by a joke about rape, he would SHUT IT DOWN. (I’ve seen him do it.) Decent men don’t laugh along. Decent men - decent people - don’t wave this stuff off.
These evangelical men who keep defending Trump are sending a clear message to their sons & daughters: women are just pussy waiting to be grabbed, and if you are rich & powerful enough, son, then you can grab it & laugh about it with your friends. “Biblical manhood” at its finest.
