"Oh yeah, I'm going in on this like a bitch," Samantha Bee said with exhilaration on Monday's episode of Full Frontal.

Over multiple segments of her show, Bee eviscerated Donald Trump's recent vulgar comments about women, his statement of apology and the Republican party's response to their nominee's behavior.

When the tape first leaked, Bee was swift to respond with her own gender-swapped video parody:

In Monday's "Pussy Riot" segment, Bee demolished television standards and practices that ban saying the word pussy on air -- and since her show airs on TBS, she lets forth a true vagina monologue full of vibrant words for the female anatomy because language is beautiful. Like so many women on social media, Bee marveled at how the Trump tapes shocked men.

"Every woman I know has had some entitled testosterone monster grab her like a human bowling ball," Bee said (#YesAllWomen). She highlighted the predatory nature of Trump's comments and that he essentially told Billy Bush how best to assault a woman.

"In fact, 'take a Tic-Tac and grab 'em by the pussy' is the closest thing to a plan Donald Trump has described this entire election," she added.

In the next segment, Bee rhetorically rolled her eyes at every response to Trump's comments that begins with "As a father..." or "As a husband..."

"Trumps comments were wrong because women are human," Bee emphasized, before zeroing in on House Speaker Paul Ryan, who was "sickened" by the Trump tapes but hasn't pulled his party endorsement.

"You don't have the courage of a single one of your convictions..." Bee says to Ryan, who has stood by Trump through the various insults of his campaign. "He wouldn't be able to resist grabbing a pussy like you."

Bee described the second presidential debate as "a grotesque travesty of democracy," starting with Trump's attempt to play off bragging about sexual assault as "locker room talk."

"Oh that thing I still have nightmares about was locker-room talk and not sexual assault! Whew, goodbye PTSD!" Bee exclaimed. "Also, you weren't in a locker room, you sleazy pair of sweat socks, you were at work."

Finally, she focused on the temperament that Trump has boasted about, compiling clips of him growing indignant over fact-checking and time limits.

"At least Mr. Trump proved once and for all who the real bitch was in this debate."

Mic drop.
