Trump’s campaign is rapidly imploding. And by the hour more and more Republicans are coming out and withdrawing their endorsements and condemning Trump’s words. Several have also called for him to resign.
Donald Trump has been busted being his vile and vulgar self….on tape. I think this time Trump has finally put one too many disgusting straws on the camel’s back. This 2005 video, in addition to all of the other misogynist things he’s said and done throughout this campaign, has finally pushed Republicans too far.
On Friday a new tape came out giving us yet another example of how Trump thinks about and treats women. The recording is from 2005 and features a conversation that Trump had with Billy Bush, who at the time was an anchor for Access Hollywood. The conversation was caught on a hot mike and it’s absolutely vulgar.
As of 6:30 PM (EDT) Saturday night, more than 50 Republicans have disavowed Trump and his vile words about women. And all of them have condemned Trump’s words. In addition many of them have withdrawn their endorsements and asked him to step down.
Senator John McCain, R-Arizona
“In addition to my well known differences with Donald Trump on public policy issues, I have raised questions about his character after his comments on Prisoners of War, the Khan Gold Star family, Judge Curiel and earlier inappropriate comments about women. Just this week, he made outrageous statements about the innocent men in the Central Park Five case.”
“As I said yesterday, there are no excuses for Donald Trump’s offensive and demeaning comments in the just released video; no woman should ever be victimized by this kind of inappropriate behavior. He alone bears the burden of his conduct and alone should suffer the consequences.”
“I have wanted to support the candidate our party nominated. He was not my choice, but as a past nominee, I thought it important I respect the fact that Donald Trump won a majority of the delegates by the rules our party set. I thought I owed his supporters that deference.”
“But Donald Trump’s behavior this week, concluding with the disclosure of his demeaning comments about women and his boasts about sexual assaults, make it impossible to continue to offer even conditional support for his candidacy. Cindy, with her strong background in human rights and respect for women fully agrees with me in this.”
“Cindy and I will not vote for Donald Trump. I have never voted for a Democratic presidential candidate and we will not vote for Hillary Clinton. We will write in the name of some good conservative Republican who is qualified to be President.”
Senator John Thune, R-South Dakota
Donald Trump should withdraw and Mike Pence should be our nominee effective immediately.

Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah
“I’m out. I can no longer in good conscience endorse this person for president. It is some of the most abhorrent and offensive comments that you can possibly imagine.”
“I hope he’s sincere. I really do. But I just — having read and seen and heard what Mr. Trump said, albeit ten-plus years ago, I just – I can’t endorse that person. I just can’t do it.”
Rep. Martha Roby, R-Alabama
“Donald Trump’s behavior makes him unacceptable as a candidate for president, and I won’t vote for him.”
Rep. Bradley Byrne, R-Alabama
“Donald Trump’s comments regarding women were disgraceful and appalling.”
He also called for Trump to be replaced by Mike Pence at the top of the ticket.
Rep. Ann Wagner, R-Missouri
“I have committed my short time in Congress to fighting for the most vulnerable in our society. As a strong and vocal advocate for victims of sex trafficking and assault, I must be true to those survivors and myself and condemn the predatory and reprehensible comments of Donald Trump. I withdraw my endorsement and call for Governor Pence to take the lead so we can defeat Hillary Clinton.”
Rep. Rodney Davis, R-Illinois
“The abhorrent comments made by Donald Trump are inexcusable and go directly against what I’ve been doing in Washington to combat assaults on college campuses. Because of this, I am rescinding my support for Donald Trump and asking to have my name removed from his agriculture advisory committee.”
Rep. Cresent Hardy, R-Nevada
“I will no longer support the guy at the head of the ticket for the Republican nomination.”
Rep. Joe Heck, R-Nevada
“I can no longer look past the pattern of behavior and comments that have been made by Donald Trump. Therefore, I cannot in good conscience continue to support Donald Trump.”
“My wife, my daughters, my mother, my sister and all women deserve better.”
Sen.ator Kelly Ayotte, R-New Hampshire
“I’m a mom and an American first, and I cannot and will not support a candidate for president who brags about degrading and assaulting women. I will not be voting for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton and instead will be writing in Governor Pence for president on election day.”
Senator Mike Crapo, R-Idaho
“I can no longer endorse Donald Trump. ‘Locker room talk’ was completely unacceptable.”
Governor Gary Herbert, R-Utah
Donald Trump's statements are beyond offensive & despicable. While I cannot vote for Hillary Clinton, I will not vote for Trump. #utpol

Governor Jon Huntsman, R-Utah
“In a campaign cycle that has been nothing but a race to the bottom — at such a critical moment for our nation — and with so many who have tried to be respectful of a record primary vote, the time has come for Governor Pence to lead the ticket.”
