TRUMP REELING AFTER CRUDE TALK ABOUT GROPING WOMEN

-

Donald Trump reeled Friday under revelation­s of crude comments he made about women, underminin­g Republican attempts to steady his presidenti­al bid. Trump issued a statement apologizin­g “if anyone was offended” by vulgar remarks captured on a 2005 tape and made public Friday. In the recording, Trump describes trying to have sex with a married woman and brags about women letting him kiss and grab them because he is famous. He adds seconds later, “Grab them by the p----. You can do anything.” The response from Republican party head Reince Priebus was devastatin­g. “No woman should ever be described in these terms or talked about in this manner. Ever,” Priebus said. House Speaker Paul Ryan said Trump was no longer attending a joint campaign appearance Saturday.
