Billy Bush Spotted at 'SoulCycle' in Georgetown
The man who almost brought down President-elect Donald Trump and got himself fired posted a picture from after his workout on Monday.
GEORGETOWN, DC — The man who totally shook up the 2016 presidential election over something he did 11 years ago was out and about in Georgetown on Monday after getting fired from the "Today" show a few weeks ago.
Billy Bush, who had a vulgar conversation about women with President-elect Donald Trump in 2005 on a tape that caused a firestorm when it was released, posted a picture on Instagram of himself after a workout at the Georgetown SoulCycle, which is located at 1042 Wisconsin Avenue NW.

Bush lost his job as a "Today" show co-host after the video surfaced, which showed Trump bragging to him about getting away with groping women, including his now infamous comment that he could "grab them by the p****." Bush similarly made comments during the video that were seen as sexist and earned him plenty of criticism as well.

The disgraced TV host apparently had a private class with trainer Kathleen Kulikowski, according to a Washington Post report, which also noted that he was later seen at nearby restaurant Fiola Mare, where President Barack Obama once celebrated his birthday.
There's no indication on exactly why Bush was in town, but perhaps he's heard that there are cabinet positions open in the incoming Trump Administration.
