>So now, after all the crazy things Trump as said - this audio of him talking about a woman is the final straw for many of the GOP to withdraw their support? THIS is the final straw? Geeze what a bunch of baffons - took long enough - geeze. Although I notice that Mitch McConnell has said that Donald Trump must apologize for his "repugnant" comments about women, but I haven't seen him withdraw his support yet. I will be interested to see if he does now that I've seen Trump "apologize" on his 90 second long video. I think the GOP should just punt - ya know just punt the ball to the Democrats this time around and re-group for 2020 - because this is looking like a lost cause.
It's pretty nauseating, but it follows a GOP pattern of suddenly understanding a problem when it affects your family. (See, for example, Rob Portman on gay marriage.) These guys stayed on board while Trump encouraged neo-Nazis, insulted a Muslim Gold Star family, degraded a Latina Miss Universe, called for banning all Muslims, etc., etc. But when they realized they couldn't leave their daughters alone with him in a room, now there's a problem.
I have slightly more respect for the ones who actually withdrew endorsements last night than for those who condemned the remarks but continued to support Trump, but not a whole lot.
