The commentary is so spot on! First of all, the conversation did NOT take place in a locker room. Second, Trump was not bragging about his exploits in seduction or success with women. He was referring to the fact that he could get away with being a sexual predator because he was a "star," way worse than actually being a sexual predator when a star (like Cosby). Why? Because Cosby and his ilk might take criminal advantage, but would not like that advantage to be publicly known. Reprehensible as that is, the fact that Trump felt his ability to assault women and get away with it was a thing to brag about. Like droit du seigneur in medieval times. THIS is the Donald Trump mentality!
