Usa today, has a running list of tweets coming out for members of congress, after the release of the tape last week. Here is some of them. Character matters, the real donald trump has been saying outrageous, offensive things the whole time. He should have stepped aside a long time ago. Kelly ayotte, who rented to push back when she mental you mentioned donald trump, says i will not vote for donald trump. Read my statement here. Rep. Guinta Bradley Byrne said he is not representative Bradley Byrne said he is not fit to be president. Karen in nashville, tennessee. Good morning. What do you think . Caller i think this is troubling for trump. I am a disabled veteran who actually moved to the nashville area to take part in some of my entitlements. I havent been able to do that for a long time. What i feel is trump definitely have some concern with his campaign and the gop bailing out on him. I believe a lot of the people in United States are starting to see there is Something Else behind a lot of these attacks and threats. I dont condone his behavior or actions. I think its troubling. But something when you said versus what clinton has done are two different measures. I think people are starting to see that. The media has played such a part in this president will campaign in smearing donald trump. I think people can take away their own perspective of what is actually happening with these leaked tapes. As a supporter of donald trump as a disabled veteran who is unable to get veterans care, i support him in the fact that he is a leader and i believe he is going to create jobs for america. Host legislators would you want to see them stick with mr. Trump . Caller i was in the military for 10 years and i do understand his position. I think its very difficult to come out and support from. Its very difficult for a supporter of trump to come out and say im going to support him when he said Something Like this. But also reset his 11 years ago. I understand the position of a political leader not able to come out and support trump. I think this is one of those situations in public and private, thats all of washington is about. I think thats why trump has the support he has. We are sick of it. Host is good at douglas in forks, washington. Douglas, good morning. You are on. You had. Go ahead. Caller i think they should support him. Believe it or not, with all the scandals that going on in our congress and senate, if you were behind the door were a fly on the wall, can you imagine what you hear . In dont think any of them are perfect, there may be a few that are above the rest, but i just dont think we are finding more and more out about clintons emails every day. We really knew what was said when everybody said the didnt know there would be taped, he would be a lot worse than what trump said. And he wasnt a politician back then. I think its outrageous. Host what do you think about that the gop is even having this conversation . Caller i can agree with huckabee they are scared. They dont want him in there either, its going to take away their paydays. The way they think and the way they are all into a together. I just think its wrong that they are doing it. They are against him, the media, the democrats, its ridiculous. Dont get me wrong, i cringed when i heard what they put out on what trump said. But nobody is perfect. Host lets go to francis. In florence, colorado. How are you . Caller im fine. They should stick with him. And paul ryan is he said that he would stick with him, and now hes jealous or whatever, dont know. Trump, i guess they are afraid he will upset their little applecart. They cant stand it. But they need to stick with him if the republicans are going to continue to be Republican Party. The party has to stick together. Host you think the donald trump still has a chance of winning when you see many republicans distancing themselves from them, particularly in the house and senate . Caller i suppose thats true in the house and the senate. But out here, these people around my community are for trump. Host even in light of the release of that tape, it hasnt changed your opinion of him . Caller no. That tape is a joke. The media has made that a big joke. Men are going to say they are just men. What hillary did is absolutely ridiculous. Shes a liar. You cant depend on her for anything, as trump said. And they should have already put her in jail. They did everyone else. That is done things worse, not as bad as she did. She should be in jail right now. But i dont know what game they are playing in the fbi. Host francis, we appreciate the call this morning. Nbc news just came out recently as well, talks about polling in light of her and demonstrate it was conducted saturday and sunday, before the second president of debate. Even at that time, it showed Hillary Clinton with a 46 support among likely voters in a fourway matchup. Thats adding the independent candidates, compared with 35 support for donald trump. Thats courtesy of nbc and the wall street journal. Your thoughts, republicans only. Should republican members of the release of that tape . Stick with trump after the release of that tape . Caller i believe that words are different than actions. I believe that the republicans in congress that were not for him for a long, long time are the same ones that like hillarys positions more than trumps. I think they should stay with trump, regardless. Host deborah in cannes georgia. We were next. Caller i am an independent, calling it as a republican, only because im voting for trump and have been voting for him since the beginning. I agree with a lot of what the people have been saying so far. The gop definitely should be standing up for the peoples choice. What they are doing is manipulating. Host what do you mean by that . Caller they are trying to tell us that we are not going to stand by him, because we are insulted. Like the older lady said just a few minutes ago, men have been doing that since the beginning of time it. Its only this pc stuff that makes it insulting. Men always do it. Who cares . Its got nothing to do with the real issues of the day. Host do you think that legislators who pull away from donald trump because of this, do you think they will their future campaigns will be effective, their time in the house will be affected . Do you think there will be a backlash against them . Caller if they are good legislators, theyre not going to be affected. But theyre not. Theyre not doing anything. They have enough evidence on clinton to put her away a long time ago. Just on the fundraiser itself, her foundation. 5 to the haitians, thats it . Where did the rest of the money go . Its against the law. Host carlene is in california. Caller listen, i am sticking with trump. I was disgusted by what he said, but you know, the Republican Party for years and years should have known this was coming, because look at when daddy bush ran the second time. He didnt find. He didnt fight. Romney didnt fight, and here he is fighting against trump. If he had fought half as hard when he was running as he has against trump, we might be in a better shape. Im so disgusted, no wonder so many people are changing to independence. I have been think about it for years. Host you mean in light of this recent action, this phone call by House Speaker paul ryan and everything that stems from that. Caller yes, im so disgusted with public and leaders. They call themselves leaders but they dont even back their party, so why should we . Trump is not running for pope. There are a lot of things about him i dont like, but i would never vote for Hillary Clinton. She is such a liar. And she just cheats, the whole thing is just a mess. It breaks my heart. To see whats happening. Im so concerned about with what happen with my children and grandchildren. Host thats carlene in california. People being asked about and giving their thoughts on the Republican Party and should it stay with donald trump . Call 202 7488001 for those in eastern and central time zones. Mountain pacific, call 202 7488001. Hillary clinton, here are her thoughts from yesterday. [video clip] Hillary Clinton donald trump spent his time attacking when he should have been apologizing. [applause] Hillary Clinton there are a lot of things you should apologize for, right he should apologize for, right . And on friday, the whole world heard him talking about the terrible way he treats women. And last night, when he was pressed about how he behaved, he just doubled down on his excuse that its just locker room banter. I will tell you what, women and men across america know that is just a really weak excuse for behaving badly. And mistreating people. [applause] americaHillary Clinton weve seen this kind of behavior all through the campaign for my opponent. Unfortunately, some people dont want to face it. But here is a man who has insulted not just women, but africanamericans, latinos people with disabilities, muslims, pows, and so many more. Host that whole event available at cspan. Org. The wall street journal, taking a look at pauls letter at paul ryan. The headline, rebuff of nominee puts right in a bind, saying he must deal with the rising populist wing that issues host your next from richard, in louisville, kentucky. Good morning. Caller donald trump will be the next president of the United States. Obamacare, the irancontra the iran nuclear deal. Ares. Immigration, from syria and the middle east. Open borders. Immigration, from syria and the middle east. And you want me to turn my back on donald trump for something he said 11 years ago . Heres the general money were talking to now. I was a democrat until this last january for 44 years. I changed my Party Affiliation because of barack obama and Hillary Clinton, and what they plan to do, continue to do to this country. I am through with the democrat party. Paul ryan was never for trump the established republicans were never for trump, and i can see the writing on the wall. Donald trump. But i do not believe he is behind by 11 percentage points. Donald trump will win the presidency of the United States, and i will vote for him. Host as far as those publicans who have distanced themselves, what are your thoughts about them . Caller i would say by them leaving they have hurt themselves. This is not about themselves. Thats whats wrong with established republicans. They only think about hitting elected, they dont getting reelected, they dont care about the country. Thats why donald trump has come through. Host ron in minnesota. Good morning. Caller yes, i think that the establishment should say with stay with trump. I understand why they arent, because my take is probably 80 of the republicans in the white house are in bed with the democrats. Two years ago, when the republicans were running for reelection, they were going to redo obamacare. Then nothing happened. Back when harry reid was in charge of the senate and john boehner said right on the podium we sent 72 bills over to the Senate Better job creating bills and harry reid refused to take any of them up. Weve had Mitch Mcconnell there for two years and he hasnt taken any up area thats why i think they are in bed together. And the reason that hillary has been said no crime was committed by the fbi, first off, if she gets in, barack obama is a constitutional lawyer. And i expect her to pick him as the next justice, so he can continue his drive for ruining america. I think this establishment has to stay behind him if they want to, like one caller said, they think they are worried about their own jobs. Thats all it is. Host got you. Camera in california. Caller thank you for taking my call. I think paul ryan has made one mistake after another. But donald trump is genuinely popular. He has hundreds of millions of voters ready to go to the polls for him. What he said on that 11yearold tape, my fouryearold son says more disturbing things to me when he was upset. What donald trump is doing on that tape was being a standup comedian, when he thought he was going to have a career in entertainment. But now, he has a career in politics. He is not the same man. I feel so sorry for paul ryan. He makes one mistake after another. Is the past, hes the neocon eclipsing part of the party. Trump is the future of the party. Even if he loses the election, the whole party is moving towards a northeastern moderate populist stance on issues. Its time that Party Leadership caught the wave. Reince priebus knows, he gets it. Host that is tamara, from keller 40 donald trump yesterday in pennsylvania talking about Hillary Clintons charges that you heard earlier, bringing up bill clinton. Heres donald trump from yesterday. [video clip] donald trump if they want to release more tapes saying inappropriate things, we will continue to talk about bill and Hillary Clinton doing inappropriate things. There are so many of them. You saw yesterday, we brought four wonderful woman to st. Louis. [applause] donald trump it was very beautiful and very sad. Really, they have been trying to get their feelings out for so long and the media wouldnt take us. One thing with me, the media takes it with whatever. They were able to get what they wanted to get out. To quote Juanita Broderick Hillary Clinton threatened me after bill clinton raped me. She has been struggling to get the media to Pay Attention to her for many, many years. So last night, i decided we would expose the hypocrisy of the clintons and the media. And our politicians to the entire world. As i outlined last night, bill clinton was the worst abuser of women ever to sit in the oval office. He was a predator. Hillary clinton systematically attacked and discredited the victims of bill clintons Sexual Harassment and assault. These things are written by the media, but they are true. These things arent written by the media, but they are true. Host the previous caller mentioned the chairman of the republican committee, reince priebus, saying they stand fully behind him, that he said in a private Conference Call he spoke to 168 members of the rnc, and he sought to squash rumors that the National Party would cut the nominee lose to focus on protecting the gop majorities in the house and senate, according to sources on the call. He argued in the close call that while he does not condone mr. Trumps a vulgar comments about women, that the nominee apologize and the party stands within, according to the source. Bobby is next in columbia, maryland. Aday, hello. Bobby, hello. Caller the gop should absolutely stick with donald trump. I voted for donald trump, i want to save this country. People need to understand were losing our country. Hillary wants to open borders she wants to bring in unlimited immigration. She doesnt care about jobs, she only cares about the slush fund they call a foundation. They want more money. People need to understand those emails are not just emails that she did for any other government employee. Those are felonies. Its not just emails. They represent hundreds of felonies she committed. Trump spoke something 11 years ago, for god sakes, he was a private citizen. Its not a big deal. Im voting for the man, i want to save our country. Anybody who votes for Hillary Clinton, you are voting for a woman who is basically a felon. They are ignoring it, along with obama, because he wants to finish the destruction of this country that he has started. We are basically losing our constitution, were losing our country. Hillary would put obama in the Supreme Court, trust me. Were going to lose everything. Vote for donald trump if you want to save this country for jobs back, a good educational system back. Host that is bobby in columbia maryland. Republicans only for the remaining amount of time it for the gop, should they stick with donald trump . If you live in the eastern and central time zone, call 202 7488000. If you live in mountain pacific time zones, call 202 7488001. Chesapeake, virginia, don is next. Caller thank you for cspan and letting our voices be heard. Im voting for donald trump, not a doubt in my mind. I agree with all the callers you had. Hillary clinton is crooked, and if people cant see that, they are blind. Host why y
