On Friday night Trump released a video response. Hes going after Hillary Clinton.
Ive never pretended to be a perfect person, nor pretended to be someone Im not. Ive said and done things I regret. And the words released today on this more than decade old video are one of them. Anyone who knows me knows these words dont reflect who I am. I said it. I was wrong. And I apologize
I pledge to be a better man tomorrow and I will never ever let you down
We are losing our jobs. We are less safe than we were eight years ago. And Washington is totally broken. Hillary Clinton and her kind have run our country into the ground. Ive said some foolish things. But theres a big difference between the words and actions of other people. Bill Clinton has actually abused women and Hillary Clinton has bullied, attacked, shamed and intimidated his victims. We will discuss this more in the coming days. See you at the debate on Sunday.

At least you can rest knowing there won’t be any tapes of Teddy Cruz’ engaging in any “locker room” talk - because none of the other guys in the locker room would talk to the creep.

“”Well my aspiration is to, uh, oh I dont know, be in a teen tit film...””
Exactly correct 100%.
No it's not. We're sick of the "how it looks" playbook.
The Dems have used this to take out our guys election after election. They count on our wobbly kneed politicians to back down and shrivel up while they commit crime after crime.
It's time to man up and stay strong or this country is doomed to the one world crowd!
Good statement by Trump. Concern trolls need not be so concerned. Just let Hillary bring this up. They’re trying to “Cain” Trump. They’re trying to make this about sexism. Poor Hillary, the Donald is abusing her. Never mind her abusive husband to whom she has cleaved to, supported and lied for all these years. Never mind her abuses of her position as “Madame Secretary” in govt. The Caining isn’t going to work.
And then there was George Patton, flawed for sure, but shortened the war and saved thousands of lives.
I agree it was a hit, but I think it came from Bezos. He and Trump aren’t friendly, and he owns the WaPo, which broke the story.

Moreover Billy Bush is collateral damage, and it’s not characteristic of the Bush’s to offer up one of their own as a sacrifice. Neil Bush and the S&L scandal- bring him out of the pub!ic eye, set him up as a GOP money man.
WaPo has gone after Billy Bush,too:

This is a hit on Trump, from WaPo, and the opportunity to consolidate a gain against the Bush family is gravy for the Left.
W’s bimbo daughter partying in Paris with Huma better wake up. Her whole trip is on somebody’s cell phone and will be trotted out as needed.
I urge you to reconsider your position.
If ever Trump needs an October surprise it is NOW. If Putin has anything on Hillary—now is the time to leak it. If any patriots still work for the FBI (I doubt it—its now Clinton’s KGB) they should leak what they have on Hillary. If a single patriot still works for the Media (Its Clinton’s Pravda) they should tell the truth about this woman. If any of the secret service has the truth on the Clintons and their scandals—now is the time to speak up. The Republic is endangered—and if things do not dramatically change—Trump is Nailed. Megyn Kelly better not celebrate—President Hillary will never go one her show and will dismantle Fox News in her first term—or make it a slightly right leaning MSNBC. How will Hillary rule? Just ask the people of Haiti. We will be dreaming of the good old days when Obama was in office.
Not even Donald himself questions the authenticity of the videotape, do you?
He said it, it does not matter whether an innocent bystander or a mortal enemy taped it, Donald Trump said it. Nixon once observed, I handed my enemies a knife
The source has nothing to do with the gaffe, only the means of reporting it. Linda Tripp is not responsible, Lucianne Goldberg is not responsible, they are not responsible, Donald is.
I have not disappeared, I have not reappeared, and I have not "smeared" or "attacked" Trump. If there is any smearing done Donald Trump has done it to himself. I am not a Never Trumper. I want him to be elected not just because what she did is worse than what he said but I am also unwilling to take the rap for what you have done.
I want the record to be clear on November 8.

But Geraldo and the Media said other countries were laughing at us because of our views on mistresses with Bill C.
Geraldo led the White House’s Oral Sex is not Sex campaign - and we were told everybody does it.
This is a only private conversation.

Hillary! bragged and giggled about getting the brutal rapist of a 12 year old girl off by tainting the evidence. The rape was so savage the 12 year old spent 5 days in a coma, and was so badly damaged she could never have children. Hillary! laughed about it ten years later. What kind of inhuman entity does that?
Have that grown up 12 year old sit in the front row.
Don't name her, don't point her out, don't say word one about her.
Let the Hildabeast see her and spend the entire debate worrying about the time bomb...
Perfect response by Trump.. If asked about it at the debates he should say he is sorry and invite anyone who has not said something they regret to please stand up. That would shut them up!
“When a group of individuals such as the nevertrumpers set the table for a problem and it occurs they might not be responsible for the immediate issue, but they are culpable just the same.”
AMEN!!!
Vote Trump 2016
My advice to Trump:

You don’t believe that Trump should point out that Hillary’s husband is a lip-biting rapist?
And that Hillary enabled and protected his behavior, and punished his victims?
There’s nothing presidential about hiding the truth.
I have consistently posted my views on winning strategies for Donald Trump. As to this latest gaffe, which of course I and many others predicted would be the order of the day now we are in October, I posted my position in the following reply which I reproduce here and in other replies on this thread:
I think he struck about the right balance and did the best he could under the circumstances. His words are indefensible and therefore he cannot defend them, all he can do is what he did: apologize and go on the attack. I quite agree with you that naughty children are not to be excused because some other child was naughty, the same goes for politicians. But this is an instance in which we must make a Sophie's choice, Donald or Hillary so each must paint the other blacker. Let the better mudslinger win.
Trump is on the higher ground defending words while attacking Hillary for actions yet this is going to be a very difficult fight to win because the audiotape plays into the narrative. Perhaps that's why Hillary went to such pains to create the narrative, because she had this tape in her pocket all the time. When a gaffe confirms the stereotype it always does far more damage.
Hillary has another advantage, she cannot win this election if the electorate makes rational judgments on her record. If you ask her what she has managed to accomplish she really has no answer so she cannot campaign on her record, she must campaign in the gutter and this places Donald Trump and his campaign right down there in the muck with her. Down here she has the advantage of money, media, demographics, the geography of the electoral college and an advantage in the polls. Trump must not lose a single battleground state while carrying the burden of all these obstacles and fending off the narrative.
Trump has got to pivot like a Dervish and bring the campaign and the debate back onto issues. That will be hard enough but the odds are there will be another October surprise leaking from the Clinton camp.
For the record, this is not created by the never Trumpers, not done by Ted Cruz, not the fault of FReeper's with insufficient zealotry for Trump, this is all Donald.
That audio has been sitting around for 11 years. That’s a serious piece of opposition research, but it underscores the power of big data (Bezos again). Big enough database, search “Trump”, “pussy”, and you’ve struck gold in an hour.
On the other hand, who owned the hot mic/off stage archive? And who owned the storage? That’s where to look. And that archive will be hacked, because there’s all sorts of fun stuff all sorts of people have said off the air but not necessarily off mic.
