Billy Bush Won’t Appear on ‘Today’ Show on Monday, NBC Says (Exclusive)

http://www.thewrap.com/billy-bush-wont-appear-on-today-show-exclusive/

 

Such a coward. Delaying the inevitable isn't gonna help. It'd do him much better to face the issue head on. We'll still be discussing it once he decides to return. 

I'm sure he is relieved. He is just as bad as Trump. The excuse about his age is pure bullshit. He was in his mid 30s and not 18.

I'd say Billy Bush is DONE

 

The Today Show is a hot mess!  That's why GMA has surpassed them in the ratings! There was no need to get rid of WG.

    Jared Kushner may have started out a kind young man, but he's always been spoiled and quick-tempered, and myopic about loyalty, which led him to his current doomed hero worship of his father-in-law. He has channeled his anger and frustration about his own father's prosecution and public shaming into some kind of weird do-over with Trump. He has abandoned his family's proud tradition of liberalism to fiercely defend Trump and tells anyone who doesn't care for the hateful rhetoric that they just don't know "the real America."

     

    He also used his purchase of the Observer to settle petty family scores. It's all in this profile of him.

     

    Meanwhile: Pre-debate, Trump is doing this.

     

     

     

    God, it's like watching the Budd Dwyer tape.

     

     

     

    Basically, everyone in media is horrified and disgusted.

    Remember, this is the same man that kept referring to Lochte as a 'young man' too about the Rio incident, and Lochte is in his 30s. 

     

    Now if these occurrences were about a BLACK man, I bet money that Billy Bush would be referring to him as 'grown.' <_<

    I can't believe that Trump brought in these women! What a fiasco!! Trump is wacko!

    This is less a presidential election race than it has become a T&A circus. It's sick. Right now, the world is either laughing at us or disgusted with us. And I can't blame them.

     

    How low can this go? I shudder to think.

     

    I just pray about a month from now that memories of Trump will fade quickly, he'll lose, and go crawl back into the sewer.

     

    Really wish I could move to Canada if this a-s-s-h-o-l-e somehow defies odds and wins.

    Hallie Jackson gets word from within the Trump campaign: "Dismaying", "what the hell are we doing?"

    Our Leader of the Opposition Bill Shorten (he's a member of the Labor party- the left/progressive party here) has again come out against Trump: 

    Heaps of other Labor MP members- as well as some of the Australian Greens MPs and a few Liberal Party MPs (the conservatives here)- have come out against him but Shorten has been the highest ranking and most steadfast in his condemnation and has been actively trying to make sure American expats are aware of how and when to vote and for rallying support for Democrats Abroad. Our PM Turnbull says he isn't going to support Trump but doesn't want to criticise him either but a lot of people on the chat shows are saying that that might change after this weekend and how tonight and the next few days go.

     

    Spoke too soon- Malcolm Turnbull is on the telly condemning Trump and saying him and his comments are loathsome, vile, and dangerous. Even Barnaby Joyce (Deputy PM and member of National Party of Australia- another conservative party) having a go at him and saying America deserves better and dragging him.

     

    Don't know if you guys can see this in America, but Derryn Hinch and our own version of Trump, Pauling Hansen, get in a row over Trump-

    it was just "locker room talk". He sounds quieter but still no specifics....on anything....and this answer made him look bad IMPO.

    This is already a snuff film. Only babbling about talking points in regards to pussygate and Cooper cuts him off. He seems drugged, listless.

     

    Trump snaps at Martha Raddatz as she tells him to have to go to viewer questions and he can't just ramble about Hillary. "Sounds fair."
