This is a very interesting interview. I was surprised how interesting it is. Before you watch this, know that Billy and Tucker have known each other for years. Billy dated Tucker’s wife’s sister. He is George and Jeb Bush’s first cousin.
The other thing you should know (as discussed in the interview) is that the October surprise video of Billy Bush and Donald Trump (the ‘pussy’ tape) was shot in 2005 – eleven years before the 2016 Presidential election.
NBC leaked the tape to the Washington Post. Why leak it, rather than broadcasting it themselves? Trump didn’t know he was being taped at the time, and it is illegal in California to tape someone without their knowledge, and NBC didn’t want to be sued. They also set Billy up to take the blame for the tape’s release, and fired him from The Today Show.
