Trump is an aggressive misogynist who thinks he can do anything. We knew that already. This is what that means in practice. It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.

Fundamentally you're right. This shouldn't be a shock.
However, while everyone knew he's a misogynist that treats women like objects his words cross the line from regular old women are second class citizens to assault. To complete ownership by a rich star. This is Cosby with an old rich white guy instead.
It also ends up lending far more credence to the recent lawsuits and that's what people are going to see and say "is this not just words? Has he done this for real". Well the decent people anyways so about 75% of the voting population. The other 25% are the deplorables and we will see on Election Day how many join them.
