Former UK football player Jacob Tamme, who is now playing for the Atlanta Falcons, isn’t impressed with Donald Trump’s “locker room” defense.
Trump has received a great deal of criticism after a tape surfaced with him making lewd comments about women. Trump explained it as “locker room talk.”
Tamme and other professional athletes took exception to Trump’s explanation.
Please stop saying "locker room talk"

The attempt to normalize it as any type of "talk" is wrong. I refuse to let my son think that this is "just how men speak" https://t.co/cdzLGAX2zs

It's not normal. And even if it were normal, it's not right. https://t.co/RQUWJJBSTn

I showered after our game but I feel like I need another one after watching the debate.

Since my locker tweet got a lot of run, let me be clear: I am not a supporter of either candidate. Decency is a non partisan thing for me.
