On the very day we thought the bigotry, racism and sexism espoused by the Trump campaign would finally come to an end, we learned it was only the beginning.
And the behaviour of some Australian men over the past 24 hours demonstrates exactly what a Trump Presidency likely represents.
As the election results rolled in — and it became clear a Trump victory was imminent — students at The University of Sydney began chanting “grab them by the pussy,” alluding to the Republican’s comments about women recorded in a decade-old leaked tape.
Other comments reported included “build a wall”, “lock her up” and “drain the swamp”.
The men were promptly ejected from the university’s Manning Bar by campus security.
If only it ended there.
Late last night a number of businessmen were escorted out of a pub in Sydney after they began loudly chanting “grab them by the pussy”, the manager informed Mamamia.
Reports have also emerged from The Rugby Club in Sydney’s CBD, where men are said to have started chanting “lock her up” after Trump’s victory was announced.
We were also alerted to several Facebook posts shared by women from Melbourne and New Zealand, who have been subjected to harassment in the last 24 hours.
There is great irony in yesterday's election.
The fact the United States elected Donald Trump and this is the rhetoric that has emerged out of it, highlights just how much we needed Hillary Clinton.

as if anyone can actually grab someone by the pussy
don't you guys see the absurdity of that comment?
he was bragging like all do, and even more, he actually say "they LET YOU"...
and yes, is funny as hell
exactly because it pisses off PC police and all their minions
Um, of COURSE someone can actually grab someone by the pussy. Are you serious? Surely you can't be this dumb?
Yes, he was bragging about being a sexual predator, and getting away with it. If you support a sexual predator and are proud of it, then at least come out and admit it.
I wonder if some sexual predator grabbed your mother, your wife, your sister or your daughter like that, if you would still see it as 'funny as hell'. How charming you are! And your ilk wonder why people despise you and you give men a bad name, when you so maliciously laugh out of spite because it upsets the so-called 'PC Police' and others? When you are so evil, malicious and spiteful, you WONDER *WHY* your type are called out! Wow. The cognitive dissonance is real with you. You cannot see how full of hate, nastiness and spitefulness you are.
dude... I know you can grab someone by the pussy.... but what is the point?
no one in the entire world does this
stop virtue signaling for one second and think about the absurdity of his statements... go watch them again... he was bragging and did not find his words...
and he said... "THEY LET YOU" do whatever... grab them by whatever.... grab them by the pussy...
the "THEY LET YOU" absolves ANYONE of any crime
that is CONSENT
if someone lets you do that....then is ok...
go and watch the video again
also... stop virtue signaling... is boring and pathetic
I mean those comments are awful but you can find actual VIDEOS of trump supporters being beaten up by clinton supporters just for voting for trump... but you wouldn't dare consider that as news would you?
Eh whatever. I'm a racist, sexist, blah blah blah I KNOW.
