The footage of Donald Trump in which he brags about aggressively groping women and trying to seduce a woman who is not his wife is the latest example of lewd and sexist comments made about women by the billionaire businessman and former reality TV star.
Some of the other comments Trump has made about women:
 "When you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything." He adds seconds later: "Grab them by the p----. You can do anything." - Trump in a previously unreleased recording made by "Access Hollywood" in 2005, published Friday by The Washington Post and NBC News.
___
"If Hillary Clinton can't satisfy her husband what makes her think she can satisfy America #MakeAmericaGreatAgain." - Trump tweeted in April 2015. He later deleted the post.
___
"It must be a pretty picture, you dropping to your knees." - Trump to a female contestant in 2013 on an episode of "Celebrity Apprentice."
___
"Did Crooked Hillary help disgusting (check out sex tape and past) Alicia M become a US citizen so she could use her in the debate?" - Trump tweeted in September 2016. He was referring to former Miss Universe winner Alicia Machado, whom he publicly shamed for gaining weight when he owned the contest.
___
"It's certainly not groundbreaking news that the early victories by the women on 'The Apprentice' were, to a very large extent, dependent on their sex appeal." - Trump wrote in his 2004 book, "How To Get Rich."
___
"All of the women on 'The Apprentice' flirted with me - consciously or unconsciously. That's to be expected. A sexual dynamic is always present between people, unless you are asexual." - Trump, also from "How To Get Rich."
___
"You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever." - Trump in an interview with CNN in August 2015, referring to Fox News Channel anchor Megyn Kelly.
___
"Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president? I mean, she's a woman, and I'm not s'posedta say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?" - Trump in a September 2015 interview with Rolling Stone, speaking about then-primary rival Carly Fiorina.
___
"It doesn't really matter what (the media) write as long as you've got a young and beautiful piece of ass." - Trump in an interview with Esquire Magazine in 1991.
___
"A person who's flat-chested is very hard to be a 10, OK?" - Trump in an interview with shock jock Howard Stern in September 2005.
___
"I saw a woman who was totally beautiful. She was angry that so many men were calling her. 'How dare they call me! It's terrible! They're all looking at my breasts.' So she had a major breast reduction. The good news: Nobody calls her anymore - nobody even looks - and not only that, it was a terrible job." - Trump to Stern in 2008.
___
"Somebody who's been very vicious to me, Rosie O'Donnell, I said very tough things to her, and I think everybody would agree that she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her." - Trump at the first presidential debate in September 2016.
