Donald Trump had the nerve to claim that he was insulted by the language that Jay Z used during his concert to get out the vote for Hillary Clinton. Trump thinks that America has forgotten his “locker room talk” tape where he graphically brags about sexual assault.
Trump’s hypocritical outrage was captured by CBS News’ Sopan Deb this morning,
!!!! Trump just said he's never used language like what Jay-Z said last night in his life! ("Locker room talk"?)

Of course, Trump’s “locker room talk” is far from Trump’s only offensive language this election cycle. There are many further examples to be had, and if we reach back to pre-election, the quantity for review multiplies exponentially.
Trump whined earlier about not having anybody to open for him (he does get Joe Piscopo today), but let’s face it, Trump isn’t going to let anyone upstage him. If Melania didn’t plagiarize their lyrics in her next speech, Trump would just claim he was responsible for their success.
The Republican nominee has no shame, and he has no honesty. Whining wasn’t enough for Donald Trump. He had to be a hypocrite too.
