United States presidential candidate, Donald Trump, has apologised for obscene comments about women he made in a newly released videotape from 2005.
Mr Trump said that “these words don’t reflect who I am, I apologise.”
In the video, Mr. Trump said “you can do anything” to women “when you’re a star” and brags about trying to grope and kiss women.
The BBC reports that top Republicans condemned the comments.
His election rival Hillary Clinton called them “horrific.”
“We cannot allow this man to become president,” she posted on Twitter.
Mr. Trump’s 90-second statement on Saturday morning appeared to be his first full apology in a campaign laced with controversial remarks.
