Let the apology tour begin. Over the weekend, Billy Bush confirmed that yes indeed, Donald Trump said ‘Grab ’em by the p***y’ in a 2005 Access Hollywood tape, despite Trump’s recent denials.

In the op-ed, Bush says he would like to set Trump, who is engaging in ‘revisionist history’ by trying to convince people that he did not, in fact, utter the phrase, straight.

Bush writes: ‘Of course he said it.

‘And we laughed along, without a single doubt that this was hypothetical hot air from America’s highest-rated bloviator.’

“To these women: I will never know the fear you felt or the frustration of being summarily dismissed and called a liar, but I do know a lot about the anguish of being inexorably linked to Donald Trump,” Bush wrote. “You have my respect and admiration. You are culture warriors at the forefront of necessary change.”

Since the Access Anchor was fired he has stayed quiet but this probably marks the beginning of Bush’s re-entry into the entertainment industry. Just watch.
