The month before the 2016 election, the leaked Access Hollywood tape rocked America’s political landscape. You know which one we’re talking about.
After its release, it seemed like Donald Trump’s political career was dead in the water. That’s what everyone focused on. How would this affect Donald Trump?
Eight years ago NBC News secretly colluded with the Washington Post to derail Donald Trump’s candidacy. Billy Bush was there and tells the story for the first time.

What’s often forgotten is that there was a second man in the tape, too: longtime television host Billy Bush. What was the ordeal like from his perspective?
Bush joined today’s Tucker Carlson Show to tell his side of the Access Hollywood story, reveal why Donald Trump was such a natural fit for reality TV, explain what makes the television industry so unbelievably toxic, and more.
Billy Bush tells Tucker:
“Trump is gonna do what Trump is gonna wanna do. He doesn’t care. So he was a soundbite machine. I was with him three days a week, and when I wasn’t with him, my boss would say, ‘How do you get the next thing with Trump? We need him every day if we can have him.”
