Billy Bush Speaks Out About His Bus Chat with Trump, “I Wish I’d Changed the Topic…”

By Trey Speegle on May 22, 2017 5:45 am

Disgraced TV host Billy Bush, in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter about the now infamous Access Hollywood tape with Trump that got him axed from the Today show,

“I will admit the irony is glaring. [Trump] has his process for his participation [in the tape], and I have mine. I had to turn this into a positive.

Looking back on what was said on that bus, I wish I had changed the topic. I wish I had said: ‘Does anyone want water?’ or ‘It looks like it’s gonna rain.’ He liked TV and competition. I could’ve said, ‘Can you believe the ratings on whatever?’ I didn’t have the strength of character to do it.”

He does not agree with Trump’s excuse that the comments were just “locker room talk.”

“I‘m in a lot of locker rooms, I am an athlete, and no, that is not the type of conversation that goes on or that I’ve participated in.”

Asked if he would ever interview the President,

“I don’t think I’d interview Trump. It would be a spectacle. In television, we love a spectacle, but I’ve come too far and learned too much. There are others that I’d rather interview, like Emmanuel Macron of France.”
