      Hear me out. We already had a lot of public info on his treatment of women. But I think normalizing old leaked audio has long-term dangers.

      This appears to have given the GOP establishment the excuse they needed to cut bait. But he was already clearly destined to lose.. bigly.

      Does leaked audio--recorded without consent--have a place? Yes. Especially if it's political views: Romney & Clinton's fundraiser comments.

      Did the private conversation reveal something that an honest assessment of decades of public behavior did not? Not sure it passes that bar.

          Yet it appears to have shocked a large number of people who would otherwise not have been as concerned. Doesn't that give it merit?

          I think litigating people based on secretly recorded private conversations should have a high bar WHEN there is already so much public info.

          we are well past that point when hacked e-mails of a private citizen make headlines that aren't, "citizen hacked - not good"

          I would normally agree but this was a workplace conversation, while miked, with a bunch of people around him. Seems different.

          Also, extreme misogyny is a political view.

          it removes cover of the 'i did it for entertainment' excuse that he uses. This was *him* for no reason other than he's awful.

          I understand. But as you know the perception that this is scandalous because he didn't realize he was being recorded gives it legs.

          .@ASE GOP establishment is not shocked, shocked just realizing who Trump is. Is anyone? Not sure revelation worth the method. Thinking.

          I think it does. There are women who alleged Trump did the things he describes doing in the tape. They were not believed.

          Now he has admitted to doing those things. That removes the "well, just allegations" method of brushing it away.
