Fake MTA Poster on Upper West Side Bans 'Unwanted Sexual Contact' by Donald Trump

UPPER WEST SIDE, NY — Should Donald Trump ever find himself riding the subway — you know, like a real New Yorker — he might not like what he sees. And it's not because subway cars aren't plated in a tacky amount of gold.

An astute 2 train passenger noticed what appears to be a run-of-the-mill MTA reminder about passenger conduct, but in actuality was a subtle diss that lumps Trump in with handsy subway riders.

Emilio Hearse was riding the 2 train Tuesday at the 72nd Street station when he noticed the poster, Brokelyn first reported.

Unwanted Sexual Contact shouldn’t be a part of anyone’s commute. Or their job. Or their life. A crowded train is no excuse for unwanted sexual contact. Neither is being a rich guy with a TV program. Women have the right to commute, work, and live without being harassed or touched in a sexual manner without consent. By reporting an incident, women are letting violators like Trump know that p*ssy bites back, and fights back. Report it to an MTA employee, police officer or a reporter.

"Clearly, this is not an official MTA poster," an MTA spokeswoman told Brokelyn. "The appropriate NYC Transit divisions have been notified. If seen, they will be immediately removed."

The poster makes an allusion to statements Trump made in 2005 that were leaked in October. In the leaked recordings — now known as the Trump tapes — the Republican presidential nominee brags to then "Access Hollywood" host Billy Bush about kissing and grabbing women without their consent.

"And when you’re a star they let you do it,” Trump continues. “You can do anything.”

“Whatever you want,” Bush says.

“Grab them by the p---y,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”

Following the leak of the tape Trump repeatedly downplayed his comments as just "locker room talk."
