Twitter Is Trolling Billy Bush Into Donating His $10M Payout To Charity

Rumors are currently swirling that Billy Bush will be receiving a $10 million settlement from NBC in exchange for amicably leaving his position as co-host of The Today Show, in light of the lewd conversation he had with Donald Trump on a shoot for Access Hollywood in 2005. Bush has been largely raked through the coals for his gross comments and generally accepting attitude of Trump's comments (including the infamous "grab 'em by the pussy").

But all that's changing - because word has it that he's planning to donate his ENTIRE 10 MILLION DOLLAR SETTLEMENT TO WOMEN'S CHARITIES! Wow! What a guy!

The rumor was first broken by comedian Patrick Monahan:

You guys hear that Billy Bush is donating his entire $10M NBC payout to women's charities? Wow! #ThanksBilly

Incredible, right? We all thought of Billy Bush as a selfish, greedy, sleazeball piece of garbage - but now that everyone's talking about how he's definitely donating his ENTIRE $10 MILLION SETTLEMENT TO CHARITY, it's hard to dislike the guy. And because everyone's talking about this, he would look like an EVEN BIGGER JERK IF HE DIDN'T FOLLOW THROUGH!

Thankfully, he pretty much HAS to follow through, given the huge popularity of people thanking Mr. Bush, all gathered under the trending hashtag #ThanksBilly:

I'm just. gosh. so overwhelmed at the selflessness of Billy Bush and realizing that actions speak louder than words. #thanksbilly

If I were Billy I'd have only given $5M since he has to look after his family but that's why I'm not Billy Bush #ThanksBilly
