Scott Baio defends Trump’s lewd, sexist language, telling offended women to ‘grow up’ because guys talk like this
Actor Scott Baio took to the defense of Donald Trump and the lewd, sexist remarks from a 1990s Access Hollywood audio, offering a sexist defense of the language, claiming “guys talk” like this and the offended women should “grow up.”
“First of all, I think 11 years ago Trump was a Democrat, so doesn’t he deserve a pass?” Baio said to Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro.
“I like Trump because Trump is not a politician; he talks like a guy. And ladies out there, this is what guys talk about when you’re not around. So if you’re offended by it, grow up. And by the way, this is what you guys talk about over white wine when you have your brunches, so take it easy with your phony outrage. This is the way the world works. It’s not a big thing.”

Trump was claiming to have a free pass to kiss and grope women because of his celebrity status.
Baio believes Hillary Clinton’s defense of her husband Bill amid reports of infidelity is far worse.
“If you’re gonna accept that, that she’s defending her husband and going after these ‘bimbos’ as she calls them, then you’re gonna have to accept Trump for being a guy,” Baio asserted.

Many Republicans are withdrawing their endorsement of Trump and try to find a way to separate themselves from these remarks and the insults to women. Even if Trump steps down, that does not mean Mike Pence would be the nominee.
According to the RNC rules, the committee itself picks a replacement. Trump’s name would stay on all the ballots but the votes direct the electoral college. You don’t really vote for president—you vote for delegates to the electoral college, who in turn vote for president.
