No doubt Donald Trump started out Friday miffed that some guy named Matthew was getting all the headlines.
Matthew the hurricane, that is. Matthew this, Matthew that.
But it didn’t last. Sadly, Hurricane Matthew’s lashing winds and storm surges that combined to take at least 16 lives along the southeastern seaboard and perhaps more than 800 in Haiti was relegated to the bottom also-rans of all news coverage while our other national tragedy – Donald Trump – verbally grabbed a part of female anatomy and 90-point headline type.
The would-be groper-in-chief, with lewd 2005 trash talk about the time he “moved” on a married woman about three months after he married Melania, his third wife, became the lead of a story Friday on The Washington Post’s website.
“Donald Trump bragged in vulgar terms about kissing, groping and trying to have sex with women during a 2005 conversation caught on a hot microphone – saying that ‘when you’re a star, they let you do it’ – according to a video obtained by The Washington Post.”
