The internet is more appalled with Donald Trump than ever before
The Washington Post dropped a bombshell on Donald Trump Friday afternoon, releasing an audio recording in which the Republican presidential nominee uses lewd language when describing an interaction he had with an unnamed woman.
The audio, which was recorded in 2005, features Trump and Billy Bush on the show Access Hollywood before arriving on the set of Days of Our Lives.
"I did try and f*ck her, she was married," Trump says to Bush. "I moved on her like a b*tch."
“Grab them by the p*ssy,” Trump says. “You can do anything.
Naturally, the internet dropped everything to react to the offensive comments made by Trump.

Donald Trump doesn't understand — or care — about consent.

If Donald Trump thinks that being a TV star allows him to "grab [women] by the p***y," imagine what he'll think he can do as president.

"Grab them by the pussy." -President Donald Trump

Billy Bush cackling after Donald Trump says "Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything." Is rape culture.

Honestly, just step into the voting booth, think of the words "grab her by the pussy," then do what you have to do.

"it's just locker room chat"
"oh yes of course the room where you go to take off your pants and talk about women like they're not people"— Alexandra Petri (@petridishes) October 7, 2016
The problem with Trump's comments on women isn't the language, it's the entitlement to women's bodies.

Overheard: "Trump can say all the disgusting things he wants about women. Truth is, he's losing to one next month."

Trump has left so much video showing what a liar he is. There has never been anything like it. https://t.co/AS1GnmWST9

I’ve been around of “locker room banter”, I’m sure more than Trump, and those are a few of the most disgusting things I’ve heard a man say.

I wish I had something sharp + witty to say about this Donald Trump tape, but it's upset me way more than I thought it would. I'm so tired.

Many people were also upset by the statement released by the Trump campaign.

Also apologizing if anyone was offended is not the same thing as apologizing.

The Hillary Clinton campaign also weighed in.
This is horrific. We cannot allow this man to become president. https://t.co/RwhW7yeFI2
