I don't know. I doubt he was saying it for the shock value. Do you think he was lying or do you believe he does what he says?
Do I believe that Trump exaggerates all the time about his own deeds? Yes.
“I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular. I call it truthful hyperbole.”
Obviously he wanted to put himself over as a big playboy to Billy Bush, who was all giddy about his remarks and buying into the image that Trump portraying to Billy. Whether this is actually true is another thing entirely.
