A women's rights group placed a massive movie screen outside the Capitol on Thursday, airing the infamous "Access Hollywood" tape in which President Trump brags on a hot mic about groping and kissing women without their consent.
The group, UltraViolet Action, told HuffPost in a statement that it plans to air the tape in a continuous loop for over 12 hours to remind the Senate that Trump is “a self-professed serial sexual abuser attempting to elevate another sexual abuser ― Brett Kavanaugh ― into high office.”
“The video explains that the Republican party is providing cover for men with histories of sexual assault, from Trump to Roy Moore and now Kavanaugh,” the group said, adding that they are urging senators to reject Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court “because the majority of the public believes survivors and will be voting in November.”
This is going to be going on for the next 12 hours, courtesy of @UltraViolet pic.twitter.com/GD8V801nrp — Alex Gangitano (@AlexGangitano) October 4, 2018 The liberal super PAC American Bridge 21st Century also told HuffPost that it plans to play a continuous loop of the tape outside the Trump International Hotel in Washington later on Thursday.
“We are playing this disgusting audio as a reminder that no sham partisan event or hollow speeches can erase Donald Trump’s admitted history of assaulting and demeaning women,” Harrell Kirstein, a spokesperson for the PAC, said in the statement.
“This week, as they toast Donald Trump and his callous administration his own awful words will be playing in the back of their mind over and over again,” the statement continued.
The protest comes a day after progressive and women's groups coordinated 300 candlelit vigils across the U.S. to demonstrate opposition to Trump's Supreme Court nominee as he continues to face controversy surrounding multiple sexual assault allegations brought against him.
Kavanaugh's nomination is likely to get a vote from the full Senate later this week following the release of an FBI report on the sexual misconduct allegations against him that Republicans say offered no corroborative evidence to back the claims.
They just can’t get past that thing.
Thes people are frickin loco. They are nuts. They are perhaps demented.
That and winning despite being outspent 5 to 1 and not having anywhere as many “boots on the ground” as the smartest woman in the world.
Que the “not this shit again” guy .....
Just like the Kavanaugh allegations being disproven by the national police agency? Why should that stop the crazy left?
“that Republicans say offered no corroborative evidence to back the claims.”
Pretty sure the FBI said that. In fact it’s looking very likely Dr. Fraud committed perjury. But yeah “the republicans claim”.
How queer these wimen ignored BJ Clinton’s offenses grabbing boobs dropping trou taking a woman’s hand to his crotch and ordering her to kiss it.
Gloria Steinem said all of that is acceptible behavior, ‘the first grope is free’.
Aaaaand nobody cares...
.
Ewwww...the access hollywood tape...maybe we can regurgitate this to bring trump down.
¿Que es eso?

Imagine If Trump had bit their LIP like Billy boy.
[ I thought the Roy Moore allegations ended up being withdrawn/disproven after the election. ]
Gloria Steinam dissipated like the wicked witch of OZ during a hurricane!
UltraViolet ??
It’s a org. run by “veterans’ and founders and former workers at MoveOn.org, Media Matters and other social justice ‘waarriors’ of the Progressive cause movement.

In general, a bunch of misguided children masquerading as activists and out to save the world from the evil Right.
Mass hysteria. Thanks Senators for handling this so well!
The 2nd Armored Division Museum, formerly at Fort Hood, ran a VCR tape or “Patton” with George C. Scott on a loop. It probably got more attention than this will.
“We’re melting!”
My wife has (barely) managed to stay friends with one of these whack jobs. They were on a long walk a couple nights ago and my wife asked her how her week was. She replied “Great! I went to a ‘Resist’ protest this week and joined a group writing postcards to stop the Kavanaugh nomination.” Then she was off to the races breaking their agreement to never discuss politics. It’s getting close to the last straw for my wife and she is saddened that their almost two decade friendship may end over her friend’s insanity. It’s getting to be like pre Civil War day’s where you were forced to choose sides and families were torn apart.
What hath Obama wrought?
