Donald Trump Slams Bill Cosby – ‘He’s Guilty As Hell’

Donald Trump has weighed in on the Bill Cosby controversy and claims "The Cosby Show" star is "guilty as hell."

"I mean, he's looking guilty, and last week's event was very bad for him, where they had those documents unsealed," Trump said on 77 WABC in New York, according to The Hill.

More than 30 women have come forward accusing Cosby of inappropriate sexual behavior, and court documents released earlier this month showed the comedian gave quaaludes to women he wanted to have sex with.

The real estate mogul also called the '80s sitcom star "overrated" and added that he never liked the performer.

"I've never been a fan of Bill Cosby," Trump said. "I've known him, and I've never liked him."

He continued, "I think he is a highly overrated guy, both in talent and in many other way."

The group Promoting Awareness, Victim Empowerment (PAVE) has petitioned President Barack Obama to strip the 78-year-old actor of his Presidential Medal of Freedom, but the president stated during a press conference earlier this week that there's no precedent or mechanism to revoke the honor.

Trump admitted he, too, knew of no procedure to rescind the honor.

"I don't know if you can take away a medal or not," he said. "It's not the most important thing. But I would say, if you can, take it away."

The former "Celebrity Apprentice" host has also come under fire recently for his views on immigration, in particular from Mexico. He accused those coming across the border as bringing "drugs" and "crime" and referred to them as "rapists."
