Scott Baio Blasts Female Critics of Trump's 'Pussygate' Comment

READ TIME: 1 MIN.

"Charles" must be in charge of misogyny.

At a time when conservative pundits and establishment republicans continue to pull their support for his faltering White House bid in the wake of "Pussygate," there may be one thing on which Donald Trump can rely -- the loyalty of a has-been teen heartthrob.

Scott Baio is standing by his endorsement of Donald Trump.

"I like Trump because Trump is not a politician; he talks like a guy," the "Charles in Charge" actor said in an interview with Fox News' Jeanine Pirro Sunday.

But Baio, who got into hot water this summer for retweeting a meme of Hillary Clinton that equated the Democratic nominee with the "c-word," is doubling down on offending women who took umbrage with Trump's "grab 'em by the pussy" comment.

"And ladies out there, this is what guys talk about when you're not around. So if you're offended by it, grow up," Baio told Piro Sunday.

"And by the way, this is what you guys talk about over white wine when you have your brunches, so take it easy with your phony outrage. This is the way the world works. It's not a big thing."

Baio was one of a handful of B-list celebrities that included "Duck Dynasty"'s Willie Robertson, Antonio Sabato, Jr. and Kimerlin Brown, who spoke in support of Trump's candidacy at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland this summer.
