"I didn't eat that dog and assault that nanny, but if I did the brain worms made me do it - I'm not a church boy!"
This was the full quote for those of you who didn't read the article.
Actual quote:
This comes right after he directly and at length denied the allegations that he ate part of a dog.
Also, this part of his very, very rambunctious youth happened (allegedly) when he was 45 and had several children.
Saying "I had a rambunctious childhood" and "I've got so many skeletons in my closet" like it absolves him from anything...
"Yeah, I strangled that hooker while high on coke and while getting blown by that other hooker. So what? Why are you surprised? I told you I had a rambunctious childhood!"
That's par for the course. Trump's "locker room talk" about the joys of sexual assault happened when he was in his 60's, but they still hand waved it away as if it was a minor transgression by a teenager.
Did you sexually assualt that poor woman?
"I'm no church boy"
That's a REALLY bad answer.
He was just an excitable boy!
Cue Warren Zevon
