Ahh, another election cycle is upon us. What better time to revisit some buried conversations of past candidates.

Oddly, or maybe not, this was easiest to find in the British media. Located at https://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2016-37595321.

In the footage, revealed by the Washington Post, Mr Trump is heard bragging to TV host Billy Bush about trying to have sex with a married woman. The clip, from 2005, was part of unaired footage ahead of Mr Trump’s appearance on US soap opera Days of Our Lives.

Here is the full transcript of the conversation:

Unknown: “She used to be great, she’s still very beautiful.”

Trump: “I moved on her actually. You know she was down on Palm Beach. I moved on her, and I failed. I’ll admit it. I did try and fuck her, she was married.”

Unknown: “That’s huge news there.”

Trump: “No, no, Nancy. No this was [inaudible] and I moved on her very heavily in fact I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture. I moved on her like a bitch. I couldn’t get there and she was married. Then all-of-a-sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.”

Bush: “Your girl’s hot as shit. In the purple.”

Multiple voices: “Whoah. Yes. Whoah.”

Bush: “Yes. The Donald has scored. Whoah my man.”

Trump: “Look at you. You are a pussy.”

Bush: “You gotta get the thumbs up.”

Trump: “Maybe it’s a different one.”

Bush: “It better not be the publicist. No, it’s, it’s her.”

Trump: “Yeah that’s her with the gold. I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful… I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star they let you do it. You can do anything.”

Bush: “Whatever you want.”

Trump: “Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.”

Bush: “Yeah those legs. All I can see is the legs.”

Trump: “It looks good.”

Bush: “Come on shorty.”

Trump: “Oh nice legs huh.”

Bush: “Get out of the way honey. Oh that’s good legs. Go ahead.”

Trump: “It’s always good if you don’t fall out of the bus. Like Ford, Gerald Ford, remember?”

[As Mr Trump attempts to leave the vehicle he struggles with the door]

Bush: “Down below, pull the handle.”

[Mr Trump exits the bus and greets actress Arianne Zucker]

Trump: “Hello, how are you? Hi.”

Zucker: “Hi Mr Trump. How are you?”

Trump: “Nice seeing you. Terrific. Terrific. You know Billy Bush?”

Bush: “Hello nice to see you. How are you doing Arianne?”

Zucker: “I’m doing very well thank you. [Addressing Trump] Are you ready to be a soap star?”

Trump: “We’re ready. Let’s go. Make me a soap star.”

Bush: “How about a little hug for the Donald, he’s just off the bus?”

Zucker: “Would you like a little hug darling?”

Trump: “Absolutely. Melania said this was okay.”

Bush: “How about a little hug for the Bushy, I just got off the bus? Here we go, here we go. Excellent.”

[Mr Bush gesticulates towards Ms Zucker as he turns to Mr Trump]

Bush: “Well you’ve got a good co-star here.”

Trump: “Good. After you. Come on Billy, don’t be shy.”

Bush: “Soon as a beautiful woman shows up he just, he takes off. This always happens.”

Trump: “Get over here, Billy.”

Zucker: “I’m sorry, come here.”

Bush: “Let the little guy in there. Come on.”

Zucker: “Yeah, let the little guy in. How you feel now, better? I should actually be in the middle.”

Bush: “It’s hard to walk next to a guy like this.”

Zucker: “Wait. Hold on.”

[Ms Zucker changes position and walks between the two men]

Bush: “Yeah you get in the middle. There we go.”

Trump: “Good. That’s better.”

Zucker: “This is much better.”

Trump: “That’s better.”

Bush: “Now if you had to choose, honestly, between one of us. Me or the Donald, who would it be?”

Trump: “I don’t know, that’s tough competition.”

Zucker: “That’s some pressure right there.”

Bush: “Seriously, you had to take one of us as a date.”

Zucker: “I have to take the Fifth [Amendment of the US Constitution] on that one.”

Bush: “Really?”

Zucker: “Yep. I’ll take both.”

[They reach the end of the corridor]

Trump: “Which way?”

Zucker: “Make a right. Here we go.”

Bush: “Here he goes. I’m gonna leave you here. Give me my microphone.”

Trump: “Okay. Okay. Oh, you’re finished?”

Bush: “You’re my man. Yeah.”

Trump: “Oh. Good.”

Tales of The Lottery in The Brave New World of 2084

Written by RampagingOldKnee in the winter of 2022 when the MAN had everyone under its heel.

The year was 2084 and human history had reached an evolutionary fork in the road. Labor was no longer required for survival. For over five decades, machines and AI had been able to provide for all the needs of everyone on the planet. But that only led to more conflict, both in the communities and between countries, and so the Global Order of Dominant Sadists, or GODS, worked together to develop the Algorithm to pacify and control the world’s population for the sole purpose of serving and entertaining the GODS. The first order of business for the Algorithm was to take control of the tens of thousands of wildly popular social media technologies. They would all be combined into one single platform. Participation was mandatory, hence the name Mandatory Assigned Network, or MAN. Every person was assigned with 100 others to their own MAN. The MAN had many tools for assuring compliance and engagement in all matters. Among the most successful of these tools was the yearly Judicious Annual Bifurcation, or JAB.

There’s more history to this song than meets the eye.

The bit about the origins and real purpose of Pokemon Go is particularly interesting.
