He would have kept his mouth shut.
One thing that any high profile person has to be aware of is that every word that you utter in what you think is a “private conversation” may be recorded in both audio or video.
He was on his way to do a “cameo” appearance on a soap opera. He was with a TV reporter named Billy Bush and neither realized they were being recorded. Apparently Mr. Bush (no relation to the other Bush’s) said some crude things also, as he has also apologized.
For 11 years this tape apparently sat on a shelf at NBC. Then someone remembered it and “leaked” it to the Washington Post.
It’s a fact of like that some men talking in private will say crude things about women. And regrettably some of them do much worse.
I suppose women talking in private “never” say crude things about men. Do they?
Everyone, media, Hillary, even the Republican establishment, is going to jump on this and keep it front and center.
On another note transcripts of Hillary’s secret speeches to Wall St. moguls have been released. The one’s she was paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for. One of things reported was she favors open borders for America. What else has she told the bankers?
Of course the media will to their best to ignore this so they can concentrate on destroying Trump’s candidacy.
So it will come down to this, do we turn the country over to perhaps the most corrupt politician in modern times. Destroy the country as we’ve known it. A castrated Republican party that will give token opposition. Shred the Constitution and create ruling clique that will be above any law.
Hillary has broken many laws by action and omission aided by a thoroughly corrupt justice dept.
Trump had a misogynist potty mouth.
The voters will decide which is worse.
We get the government we deserve.

Though many will laugh at this (as was foretold) God’s Microphone and camera is always on us. Because of our depravity he had to take the punishment for us. Remember.
update: I was mistaken, Billy Bush is a cousin of Jeb and GWB.
