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.

Isaiah 54:17
"No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,
And their righteousness is from Me," Says the LORD.
Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 717). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.
“He just brilliantly turned the tables on his enemies.”
He knew this was coming. He knows his own past, and knows someone probably recorded it. His counter-attack plan is detailed.
The statement was pretty good considering the circumstances. Looks like Trump is going to burn it down.
But now is not the time. Perhaps at the debate? Perhaps later in the week.
The people who are undecided know about Clinton and obviously do not care. But they do not “know” Trump and this is going to play to the “he is a misogynist” angle.
Take responsibility, admit you mistake and move on. Real men do not blame others for their errors.
It is not going to change my mind. But this WILL affect those wishy washy women who are undecided. But in the end, who, at this point, is undecided?
And I am not being holier than thou. I am thinking like a marketing guy. And, the folks on FR are not the people he needs to convince.
My thoughts and words exactly.
Dems playing the politics of “yesteryear”. The politics of 2016 are quite different as we have a candidate that is quite different.
Times have changed, the Dems are stuck in the past. A past that has been a disaster for this country.
I look to a bright future, only possible if Trump wins. If he loses our country is OVER! I really believe that.
Look at what has happened in just 8 years of Obama. Can you imagine after 8 years (if she lives that long) of Hillary?
There will be no coming back.
For me, I hope, trust, and pray that Donald Trump hangs in there and keeps up the good fight.
The apology was complete and sufficient.
Do you talk with other “guys” like that? About the woman who is going to be your wife?
You are telling me that you’ve referenced grabbing your wife’s “pussy.” You have talked to other men and talked about how nice “her tits” are?
If you have, then I think you need better friends, and you owe your wife an apology.
I’ve been deeply involved with “behind the scenes” work at college sports for the last 290 years or so. I’ve been in locker rooms and I’ve never heard men talk about their girlfriends or wives like this.
I have referred to him as a petulant preppy rich kid since the begining of the campaign. He proved it with this, relaxed behind the scenes thing.
He still has my vote, but he lost a little of my respect.
It makes the apology luke warm.
But I guess he is not the anti-politician we all thought he was.
The media won’t let it go. Trump has sunk himself. Prepare for the worst, Hillary will be elected.
Still fighting the “better than you” war, General Butthurt?
And drinking the MSM koolaid straight now, it appears, still coming on FR as Debbie Downer and preaching your tired old philippic sermon: “Bad Donald!”?
Make up your mind, nathan, finally—either get on or get off. This room is for winners only.
The gloves are finally off. Rip her *** Donald! Go Trump, win win win.
“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.”
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.
I guess thinking about how this stuff looks is not appropriate for Free Republic anymore.
You guys wonder why we lose every four years? Its because you are blinded by your love for the candidates.
If you are this blinded by the facts of this situation, imagine how utterly disappointed you are going to be when he is elected.
You will all turn on him as you did on Rove. In 2004 he went from “magnificent bastard” to most hated man in politics.
Shake your head to get the crap out of your eyes and see the world as it is, not as you want it to be.
I don’t think Trump is a good candidate. I find him distasteful in his fake “every man” show. But I also find him a wonderful alternative to Clinton.

nathanbedford (My warnings over the last six years had been so numerous, so detailed, and were now so terribly vind)
Heh. I just noticed your tagline.
Every President could have said the same, but 98% didn’t. Richard Nixon at least apologized. Sorta.
Now that's what I'm talking about!
Is this the dems October surprise? Trump is human? If this is all they got, we’re talking landslide victory and repudiation of the Clintons in November. What a bunch of sanctimonious hypocrites.
FOX Ch12 in Portland is going full cover for the Clintons.
When you know what the news really is and you listen to their slant you know why most voters are ignorant.
