Parting ways with NBC wasn’t the only swing at Bush and his reputation.

Bush was suspended from the Today show last week, after video from 2005 of a graphic conversation he had with Donald Trump about women was released. She also stated that she believes her husband is “real” and “raw” and “I accept his apology”.
Benanti/Trump spent much of the segment appearing to look at someone off-camera, but telling Colbert at the beginning, “There is no one else in the room coaching me”.
Bush’s exit settlement with NBC did not include a standard “no compete” clause, meaning Bush is free to seek employment elsewhere immediately. Financial terms of the deal were kept confidential.
Wife of presidential nominee Donald Trump, Melania Trump, took to defending both her husband and herself on CNN Monday in an interview with Anderson Cooper. And by “it”, they mean “almost everything she said, particularly about her husband’s alleged history of sexual assault”.
The 46-year-old said, “I believe my husband, I believe my husband – it was all organized from the opposition…”
“He’s not the man that we saw – we heard him on the tapes”, Melania Trump this morning told Earhardt, about the controversial 2005 Access Hollywood tape published 11 days ago by the Washington Post.
But, she told Cooper, “I am not surprised in one way, because a lot of people, they are against my husband”. “It’s like a magnet”. So you know, I know he respects women. You can do anything … grab them by the (expletive).
“In front of me”, Trump added.
The two men discussed an actress who was waiting from at the end of the bus ride.
“They’re all animals”, she continues.
Laura Benanti made a repeat visit to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to deliver another impression of Melania Trump. She emphasized the media’s slandering of Trump, and wants the American people to focus on “the issues”.
If it is true that she had not seen that side of Donald Trump, it reveals only that she has never tuned into his many interviews on Howard Stern’s radio show.

The third hour features lighter fare: interviews with actors Nick Offerman and Ethan Hawke on Tuesday, a segment on the hosts of HGTV’s “Fixer Upper” and another offering style advice to married couples.
