Donald Trump’s campaign is bracing for new revelations after a video of the presidential nominee talking about grabbing women “by the pussy” was made public, Fox News reported Saturday.

This report came courtesy of Trump advisor Ben Carson, who spoke to chief Fox political correspondent Ed Henry about the fallout from the recording.

Carson claimed to have spoken with Trump about the possibility that more damning stories about the Republican nominee will be released.

“They have more things & they will drip them out,” Carson said, according to a tweet from the Fox host.

The content of Henry’s conversation with Carson was also discussed on air by host Martha MacCallum, who said she wanted to “bring it to the viewers at home.”

“They believe there’s more to come,” MacCallum said. “That there will be other bombshells like what we heard last night.”

In the 2005 video published by the Washington Post on Friday, Trump tells Billy Bush, then the host of Access Hollywood, that he used his celebrity status to grope women without their permission. Trump issued an apology for the offensive, predatory comments in the recording, but has insisted he will never drop out of the race.

  1. Since when has Ben Carson ever known what he was talking about?

    Many people have skeletons in their closet. Trump has a hangar full of them.

  3. There’s a month left in the election. This is not the October surprise. This is just a mere taste of what’s to come over the next four weeks. When Team Clinton gets done with him, Trump TV will be done as will what’s left of the Trump brand. I predict that even Ivanka’s clothing line will go belly up within a year or two. These people, these deplorables, will be pariahs among all those with whom they’d ever want to associate. Running for president, and particularly the nasty, hateful, insult-driven way he’s gone about it, is going to be the worst mistake the Trump family ever made.

    I think never Trumpers have a lot to do with this. He has burned way too many bridges in his career, and I’m sure there are lots of people looking for payback.
