I don’t think it will be easy to shrug off for social conservatives. But I really do believe if he makes a sincere apology, he will get through it without losing to much support.
In the last few days, I’ve gotten a couple of brochures in the mail from the Dems, about how badly Trump treats women.
A sincere apology will go a long way with the Evangelicals. The other time when he issued a blanket apology was not necessary. This time it is. This is something concrete that people can relate too.
An apology would be accepted, but it has to be sincere. He is not a college frat boy, but a grown man and should have known better.
