In the 2005 video, Trump and "Access Hollywood" host Billy Bush were aboard a bus that was taking them to the set of “Days of Our Lives” when the lewd conversation took place.
At the time, it was believed to have been a private conversation. The pair were headed to do a promotional spot for Trump’s cameo on the soap opera. The audio was picked up by a hot mic and obtained by The Washington Post, which released the video Friday afternoon.
