Donald trump apologizing for lewd comments he made about women back in 2005. This after the tape catching trump in an unguarded moment. He was supposed to Campaign Event today but hes been disinvited. Paul ryan saying he was sickened by what he heard on the tape. There is so much to get to this morning. Lets start with nbcs katy tur who has been following the Trump Campaign from the beginning and has latest from the fallout. Good morning, sheinelle. 16 months in and donald trump has refused to apologize for anything, be it an attack on a federal judge, a gold star trump finally saying he is sorry he could grope a woman because he is famous. Is the damage already done . When you start it, they let you do it. Grab them by the [ bleep ]. Reporter after those outrageous remarks, finally a contrite trump. I said it. Im sorry. I apologize. Reporter and then this. Bill clinton has abused women and hillary has shamed his victims. Reporter the nominees brief apology believed to be unprecedented in his public life came off a 2005 tape surfaced revealing a conversation between trump and then access hollywood host billy bush. Trump brags about groping women, laughing off an effort to seduce access hollywoods nancy odell. I moved on her heavily. I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get furniture. Ill show you where they have i couldnt debt there. She was married. All of a sudden, i see her, she has the big phony [ bleep ]. Shes totally changed her look. The comments were caught on a hot mike during a publicity tour, eight months after he maried his third wife melania, who was already pregnant. Trump had no other choice but to repunt. One Campaign Staffer calling it their very own should ever be described in these terms or talked about in this manner, ever. Paul ryan disinviting trump from a scheduled appearance in wisconsin today. Saying he is sickened. Utahs formers sitting republican governor is along with republican congressman Jason Chaffetz and senator mike lee revoking their support. I can no longer endorse donald trump for president. Just cant do it. Reporter swing state operatives are calling this the enand some highprofile voices he with will discuss this more in coming days. See you at the debate on sunday. Reporter this morning, new talks to see how the Republican Party can go forward and whether they can take trump off the ticket. Pressure to do so mounting from big dollar gop donors, but its a move that is highly unlikely because of ballot issues. Remember, early voting has started in a number of states, meanwhile, billy bush apologizing saying hes embarrassed and ashamed that this happenehe guys . Trump has done countless interviews like this before with access hollywood and others like it. What are the chance there could be more tapes out there. There has been grumbling about that. We could see more of these tapes. I was talking to someone who had known donald trump for a long time and said hes said much worse. Thank you. Meet the press, chuck todd. Good morning. Trump says something crazy or trump does something ridiculous and it doesnt stick to him. Does this feel different to you . It does. I think, look, you had a campaign that was reeling. And sort of in some for conventional reasons. Now, this. I think its unrecoverable. I think the question now is, how break away from him . Is it done by the leadership first . Is it mcconnell, it is ryan . Is it the chairman of the party . Its unrecoverable. The question now is what does do people what does the rest 6 the party do . That apology, that half apology, half threat, that promise to continue the conversation, likely during the debate tomorrow. If if this debate is what donald trump threatens, i dont think i mean, it is unchartered territory, craig. Im trying to envision what this might look like. Disaster doesnt begin to describe it, if this is the road that trump goes down. If this is what it turns into, i dont think he has any idea how how poorly this would play to attack to attack a woman for the infidelities of her husband. It would be of Epic Proportions of a political miscalculation. These defections, chuck, weve started to see them, Jason Chaffetz we showed in the piece there, senator mike lee as well, saying that trump should get out of this thing. Paul ryan uninviting him to that event in wisconsin today. That over the next few days . I think we will. I will be stunned if we dont. So far, the first people to break have been two groups of republicans. One have been mormons. And obviously, this has been an issue for many utah republicans, rank and file for months, let alone leaders. Youve had the next set of condemn nations have come from republicans in very, very competitive races in a month. I think today and tomorrow and the next panic among potentially house republicans. Remember, craig, lets talk about winning and losing here. This is about can republicans hold the senate . But if this is mishandled, if donald trump truly goes into tomorrow as a political ied, then the house could be in play and suddenly the entire party could collapse on itself over the next few weeks before this election. Chuck, it sounds like i think its a total i the hills. It sounds like youre saying donald trump could bring down the entire gop. I think he could. Come november. But to be clear, 31 days out, theyre stuck with it. Theyre stuck. Look, i had a conversation with some highlevel republicans in early august, craig. During the khan episode when he was attacking the gold star family and the khan family. There was chatter, okay, if know, how much time would they have . When would they have to do it, when would he have to get out . It was essentially determined they had until approximately the first week of september. Now its too late. The ballot deadlines, all of that is too late. Maybe theres a weird Electoral College thing where they could somehow get all of the electors that have promised to elect trump to sign some other pledge. Fundamentally, its too late to replace him. Chuck todd. Tomorrow morning. You got it. On meet the press. Yes. Hard to believe. Thats not all that happened in politics yesterday. At about the same time that donald trump tape was made public, wikileaks released more emails they claim are from Clinton Campaign chairman John Podestas personal email account, they appear to contain cone tents of private wall street speeches. Many people wanted to know what was in those. Site of tomorrows debate with more on that. Good morning. So much news at all once here. Were finally getting a glimpse into those speeches that you mentioned that clinton gave to wall street and other private groups that Bernie Sanders demanded she release during the primary. She never did. These are from wikileaks. We havent confirmed the authenticity of them and the campaign hasnt either. John podesta tweeting im not the election to donald trump. But these documents do give a glimpse of a Hillary Clinton thats different in private than in public. She even went so far as to say as much, saying politicians need to have one public position and one private position as they try to get things done in washington. And, of course, on the issue of trade that was so important to sanders, she actually went so far as to say she would call for an open border policy, quote, my dream is a hemisphericmo borders. Potentially causing her some trouble. Now, the Clinton Campaign out with a statement, again, focused on the rugs saying, quote, the u. S. Government removed any reasonable doubt that the kremlin weaponized wickly leaks to meddle in our election and benefit Donald Trumps candidacy. He says that theyre not going to confirm the authenticity of stolen documents released by Julian Assange who has made no secret of his desire to damage Hillary Clinton. These documents. If they are authentic, that really stands up to the magnitude of that story about donald trump. Many democrats ive auctioned to in the last 12 hours privately saying they think this race might already be over. Casey hunt in st. Louis. Ill see you there tomorrow. We have to open up this conversation. There is too much to cover. Lets bring in a republican strategist who is a Deputy Campaign manager for Carly Fiorina and harold ford jr. , state of tennessee and msnbc political analyst. Good morning. Good morning to both of you. We have to start with donald trump. These comments, any other person could make them, it would torpedo their campaign. This is a conversation weve been having over and over. Hes had a problem with women already. 64 of women polled have a negative view of him. Will this have an impact . Is this going to change votes . Were heading into an election where we are going to have the largest gender gap in history by a factor of two. Wont be able to measure this outside of the debate on sunday. What this does in a debate he needed to win, be on offense for, hes heading in on his heels at best. They have no now be sending all of today and tomorrow preparing for how to hannel this. I dont think last nights apology video does anything, anything to help that. And so i think that this will all be tied into a debate that he couldnt lose. Go back to the video that he put out around midnight. Half apology, half threat. To be going after bill clinton. The debate tomorrow in st. Louis, how ugly could this thing get . Its really all on him. I agree with saras comments. A lot of ways it shows inside in his mind about what his wealth really provides. He talked about the advantages of celebrity and wealth. They allow you to treat women a certain way. You have to wonder what it was like dealing with his daughter who defended him vigorously and i thought convincingly at the and three, the gender gap. No doubt it was going to be large. Republicans alike, i dont think well hear well hear from more republicans today about him stepping down. He has a daughter, a sister, its hard to look your family in the eye and say im going to actively support and be for donald trump. Not only can the debate be interesting, the next 24 hours will be interesting, how he handles women and his own family. Its going toe so much news this morning. We know this topic and a lot more will come up tomorrow night during the second president ial debate. You can see Hillary Clinton and Donald Trumps faceoff on msnbc and we will be streaming it live on nbcnews. Com. Coverage begins at 9 00 eastern, 6 00 pacific, thats tomorrow night. Im pretty sure well get a huge audience for that. I would imagine so. Other big story, Hurricane Matthew, that storm is a weakened category 2 hurricane about 105 Miles Per Hour. It is battering South Carolina. But on friday, heavy damage and destruction was left behind in parts of florida. At least four people were killed in that state. More than 1. 2 Million People are without power this morning. Through georgia, through florida and the carolinas as well. We have Team Coverage this morning. We start with nbcs Chris Jansing in charleston, South Carolina. Chris, how is charleston doing . Yes, i mean, this is what hurricane conditions look like, craig. And this wind and rain has been steadily worsening over the last hour or so. They say its going to continue for several hours more. In fact, the hurricane conditions for at least another hour and take a look at the flooding. You can see how deep my boots are. This isnt even the worst of it. Were pretty far away from the worst of it. Having said that, officials believe that the combination of wind and rain and flooding could and thats why governor nikki haley has called out the National Guard. Has said that shes upping the number of National Guard to 35,000 people. We saw some of them out actually braving some of the earlier conditions and some of the flooding yesterday. In addition to that, you have waves that are cresting at 20 feet, measured off buoys off the coast. 90,000 people now without power. That number expected to rise. They have power crews that are here from a problem, downed power liens causing burglar alarms and fire alarms going off that has been keeping the emergency crews busy. Now, the one thing that officials are happy about is they told people to evacuate 335,000 did, many of those in shelters and those who didnt, heeded the warnings overnight. They have no problems, kept off the streets. The only thing we saw when we came in about 8 00 or 9 00 last i just talked to a city official who said they didnt have major problems overnight. Having said that, when you look at this combination of factors, the wind, the rain, the flooding, perhaps the third highest surge that theyve ever had in history. Theyre going to have a mess on their hands here in what is clearly as you know, craig, because you spent so much time here, not one just one of the most historic but one of the most beautiful cities in the south. The crown jewel of update. Scary scene out there, dylan. Whats the latest on Hurricane Matthews track. The track is supposed to make landfall near charleston shortly. It is a category 2 hurricane. Winds are down to 105 Miles Per Hour. That is still very strong. Take a look at the rain bands swirling into most of South Carolina, even up into North Carolina right now. And since we are very close to possible landfall, you can see onshore with the eyewall. Hilton head island reporting gusts of 87 Miles Per Hour. You go up to charleston, inland just a bit, 37 mile per hour wind gusts. Tybee island, georgia, 93 miles an hour and also the highest storm surge they have ever experienced. Speaking of the storm surge, were looking at 5 to 7 feet from hilton head, farther north. Cape fear up to kitty hawk, we could see 2 to 4foot storm surge. Thats the push of water that in flooding we see compared to a regular high tide. Heres the latest track although we get an update later this morning. It is expected to continue its weakening trend and then eventually to a tropical depression before it loops back around, possibly into the bahamas as we get into the end of next week. In the meantime, we are looking at heavy rain, torrential downpours. That 5 to 9foot storm surge, totals of up near 15 inches of rain possible. Look at how far north it spreads now. We have an approaching cold front from the west. And southeastern massachusetts, not really because of the storm itself but adding extra moisture. So well even see the effects across the northeast as well. Guys . Tough time, dylan, thank you. Well get much more from you throughout the morning. We want to get back to charleston, South Carolina and see how the city is doing. John techlenbery is the mayor of charleston. What have you seen as far as the damage is concerned . Well, first let me say how proud i am of our Emergency Operations personnel, both in the city and the county and the state. I was riding around downtown charleston last night and despite the fact that we always welcome people to our vibrant and lively city, it was evacuating folks and getting them safe and secure in their homes before the storm came. What were concerned about today is the high winds that are about to unleash on this city as the eyewall of this storm actually hits the city of charleston. So were expecting over 100 mileanhour winds. And the triple threat of flooding, which includes that storm surge, the high tide that will be here midday today and the receiving as the day goes on. I was just about to ask you that. Lets talk about flooding for a moment. Charleston is low lying, downtown floods easily. How much flooding are you expecting . A good bit. Weve already closed about 80 streets, local streets, due to flooding and due to some trees already coming down. The trees and the Power Outages, frankly, will increase as the wind. But the flooding midday should be the worst. Because as that storm surge pushes water in, and the high tide comes in, and the rain has nowhere to go out, were going to have continued and increased flooding throughout the day. And finally hopefully, god bless, it will have no loss of life. Thats the most important thing. Amen to that. Finally, my colleague mentioned about 90,000 people are without po when can they expect that to be back on . Well, just to let you know, our city personnel, both Public Safety and public service, are stationed throughout the city in fire stations everywhere. So that as soon as the storm is over, well begin our response and recovery. The Utility Companies have prepositioned crews not only their own crews but theyve assets ready to go for response and recovery. And we hope in just a day or two well be happy to welcome folks back to charleston and come down to join us. All the best to the communities affected there. Mayor tecklenburg, thank you. Dylan is back with a check of the rest of the country. Going on across the rest of the country, theres not a lot to talk about. Main focus is the cold front combine with the rain. All eyes are on South Carolina and North Carolina where the heaviest rain is falling right now. Thats a look across the country, now heres a peek out and thats your latest forecast. All right, dylan. Still to come, more of our coverage of Hurricane Matthews still to come here, we are live in South Carolina as folks there wake damage from Hurricane Matthew. This is a live look at the beach. And one month to go until we are back on this saturday morning, october 8th, 20126. Check out that great crowd on the plaza this morning. Well head out there in just a few to say hello. Heres a look at what else is making headlines this mo a rare apology overnight from donald trump for vial comments he made about women back in 2005 when he didnt realize he was being recorded. The comments released on friday are from a taped conversation trump was having with former access hollywood host billy bush. Trump talks about groping and kissing women. Trump said he was sorry on a video released friday night. Ive said and done things i regret. The words released on this more of them. I said it, i was wrong and i apologize. Trump was supposed to pear at a Campaign Event today in wisconsin. He was disinvited with many fellow republicans slamming his comments. This morning, moscow is responding to the obama administrations accusation that ard 0ed hackers to interfere with the president ial race. A statement from the secretary of Homeland Security and the director of National Intelligence charged that senior russian officials were the only ones who could authorize the groups. The kremlin dismissed the statement as nonsense. And the u. S. Military is moving in and sending a ship full of aid and supplies to haiti to help that country after Hurricane Matthews destruction. Hundreds of people have already died and hundreds of thousands have been displaced. Some relief supplies have already started pouring into that country in great need. Lets go back to our coverage of Hurricane Matthew now. The storm leaving its mark on nbcs rehema ellis is in savannah for us this morning. Whats the scene now . I can tell you, craig, so many people are waking up this morning to massive Power Outages, according to the Georgia Power company, some 260,000 people throughout the county without power. Here in chatham county, 143,000. Take a look down the street. You see some of the streetlights are on. Thats a good thing. There were no lights in our hotel when we morning. Also consider what you see. You dont see anyone. In this particular county, according to officials, about 75 of the residents did heed the order to evacuate. Thats Something Like 200,000 people. The good news is, that while the wind is still surging, gusting at about 46 Miles Per Hour right now, that storm that we got that hit the area overnight did not force the wind and the rain i should say up into the streets but there have, i said, been Power Outages. There are downed trees, downed power lines. People are going to be dealing with that this morning. On the islands, a lot to deal with. Tybee island got a record storm surge of 12 1 2 feet overnight. What they say in order to really assess the damage theyre going to wait for all of this wind to calm down before authorities send their emergency crews and their assessment crews out to figure out exactly what how much damage has been done stay safe. You can see shes blowing around in the word. Stay safe. Dylan, whats the latest on matthew . Tybee eye lapped was hit hard. We saw the high tide occur when the strongest storm surge occurred. So want to show you exactly what a storm surge is and its basically a rise of water in addition to the regular high tide. So you have your normal tide high tide levels. If you add water on top of that, its a huge push of water that comes onshore. Obviously this is a little bit exaggerated. In tybee eyeisland we saw a sur of more than 12 feet. Im 53. So if you take your average high tide levels and add perhaps up to 4 to 6 feet on top of that, this is basically just a wall of water thats coming onshore. Th it tens to push inland. Even though savannah, say, is farther inland, its still close enough that that water ends up flooding places like savannah. Were going to see the same type of situation in charleston as well. Its not just the coastal flooding because of the storm surge. Its also the rain itself. You can see that all of this is just pushing onshore as the whole system wraps around. Were also looking at flash flooding. Thats still a major concern. 12. S of rain possible in what were going to see today. Its the combination of that storm surge pushing the water onshore, causing coastal flooding and inland flooding and the additional flash flooding we can see from another foot of rain possible. Some areas have picked up more than a foot of rain as it is. Thats a look at the weather across the country. Now heres a peek out your window. Thats your latest forecast. All right. Thank you, dylan. Still to come, following in her fathers footsteps. Cant get cuter. Is never too early to learn how to play piano. Plus, the most talked about stories this week. Including this incredible halfcourt shot. Looking like Sheinelle Jones. Thats right. First, these messages. Maybe they didnt know i would end up with cancer because of hpv.

Well go live to South Carolina which is currently taking the brunt of Hurricane Matthew in ju first, we have got to start with the breaking political news that took place overnight. A very rare apology from donald trump. The candidate forced to say hes sorry after a tape from 2005 surfaced where he said vulgar comments about women. A lot of backlash this morning. Nbcs katy tur is here with the latest. Katy, good morning. Donald trump is facing mounting pressure overnight and in his political life. You can do anything. Whatever you want. Grab them by the [ bleep ]. Reporter that conversation happening eight months after trump married his third wife melania. She was already pregnant at the time. In it he also describes trying and failing to have sex with a married woman. Condemnation, highprofile names demanding he drop out. Others like House Speaker paul ryan continuing to support him but saying he is sickened. That forced trump to do what hes never done before, apologize. Anyone who knows me knows these words dont reflect who i am. I said it. I was wrong. And i apologize. Reporter the apology video was only 90 seconds long and he wasted no time attacking bill trying to deflect the blame. Bill clinton has actually abused women and hillary has bullied, attacked, shamed and intimidated his victims. We will discuss this more in the coming days. The debate is sunday. We will see how aggressive trump gets in trying to defend himself. It seems like the clinton marriage for now is fair game once again. One thing is for certain here, though, there is a lot of soul searching going on among republicans over how sheinelle . Katy tur, thank you. Donald trump was supposed to be in wisconsin for a Campaign Event. After those comments were made public last night he was disinvited by speaker of the house paul ryan. Jacob rascon is in wisconsin with more on that. Jacob, good morning. Good morning.

That was followed by other Republican Leaders with very strongly worded statements, including mitch mcconnell, the Senate Majority leader saying they were repugnant and unacceptable. Kevin mccarthy saying theres no place for the language. Senator john mccain says there are no excuses. Rubio says its impossible to justify. Reince priebus says no woman should ever be talked about that way. None of these Top Republicans unendorsed trump. Later in the night as has been mentioned, other Republican Leaders did begin to rescind their support, including many republicans from utah seeming to lead the way. The governor, the former governor and congressman Jason Chaffetz, others saying its over, i can no longer support trump. Many of them and others calling some suggesting mike pence.

Lets go to our other big story of the morning. A differein it has now been downgraded to a category 2 but it is still packing a powerful punch and currently hammering South Carolina. Lets head back to charleston where Chris Jansing has the latest. Chris, good morning. Downgrading to a category 2 does not mean charleston is out of the woods. How bad is it . As a matter of fact, Officials Say the worst is yet to come. Weve already seen some pretty widespread damage. Im not quite sure what that whipping up. The rain is coming down and heres the problem. Take a look down here. We already have flooding. There have been dozens of streets, this a very rare car thats about to come by. Dozens of streets that are flooded. I95 in both directions is impassable. Having said that, over at the water front, its low tide and yet the water is six feet above normal. This afternoon, when it reaches high tide, its just about the time expected to pass here in charleston. Thats the real concern. Thats why governor nikki haley said she upped the number of National Guards that theyre deploying here as the rain starts to come down heavily to 3500. They were evacuating people, going door to door. About 335,000 people took advantage of it and in fact, a number of the shelters have seen a significant number of people there. But what theyre telling people who have hunkered down in their curfew overnight. We saw almost no one out except for police officers. There are some areas where they havent really figured out how people are doing, particularly those barrier islands. At least 90,000 people without power that number expected to rise. A lot power crews are here from as far away as texas. They are in place for when this all ends. Again, theyre looking at noon, 1 00 for the worst of the flooding, downed power lines. And as you has been coming in waves, right now, the wind and rain is coming down pretty significantly. Theyre waiting to see exactly what happens in the next three or four hours. Stephanie . Thanks, chris. We did just learn its been downgraded to a category 1 with winds up to 85 miles an hour. Lets head to georgia, that state getting pounded overnight. Rehema ellis is in savannah with more on that. Good morning. Good morning. Take a look down the street. We talked about the widespread Power Outages. Light with the exception of a Police Cruiser that is down possibly assessing the damages. Were going to see a lot of that throughout the area in the morning. Lets turn here. These Power Outages and downed trees, its spotty. Over in this section, you can see some of the trees have come down. Look down the street. We have power, at least to the traffic light. In the building next to it which was our hotel, theres no power. According to the Georgia Power company, it is widespread power 260,000 people along the coastline without power. Here in this county alone, we are told that about 134,000 people have no power. Many people did heed the order to evacuate. Authorities tell us here in savannah about 134,000 people, Something Like 75 of the county did decide to leave the area in order to get to safer ground. If we just turn a little bit over here, you can see that one trees, theres Still Movement in terms of the wind and just on the other side of that is the savannah river. The river is moving at a fast pace. Thats because of these gusting winds that we get from time to time. Were told theyre going up to 46, maybe 50 Miles Per Hour. A lot of assessment will be going on in this Community Today as they try and figure out exactly how widespread the damage is and when they can tell people its time for them to go back home. Rehema, thank you. Be safe. Rehema ellis in savannah. Lets get to dylan dryer, National Hurricane center put out new coordinates. What are we seeing now . It has been downgraded to a category 1, winds up to 85 Miles Per Hour. It is very, very close to charleston, though we have not gotten reports that making official landfall just yet. Its sitting 20 miles to the south southeast of charleston and moving to the northeast. Much rain is falling. The torrential downpours in charleston right now and you can see all across northeastern parts of South Carolina, the rain is coming down very, very heavily. We also now have a tornado watch in effect until 4 00 p. M. Because with some of thesen bads of rain, you could get enough energy to produce and spin up those tornadoes. Right now were still getting gusts up near 87 Miles Per Hour in hilton head, charleston seeing win gusts up near 52 Miles Per Hour. Some of the been hurricane force. Tybee island, georgia, 96 mile per hour wind gusts. Thats the gust coming off the water, pushing the water onshore and high tide at the same time of those gusts came at just the right time to produce that significant flooding with more than a 12foot storm surge. As you go through the day today. Were still looking at Tropical Storm force winds with higher gusts. This will continue to ride along the coast of south and eventually North Carolina. Cape hatteras will be battered norfolk, virginia, we could see gusts up to 40, 50 Miles Per Hour. Its all about the storm surge. Its the push of water that comes onshore. The next high tide in charleston is 1 55 this afternoon. The good thing is, the storm should be moving on at that point. Its not going to hit at the worst time like it did in tybee island, georgia. Heres the latest from the National Hurricane center, maintaining it as here on out a category 1to past the carolina coastline. It should eventually downgrade to a Tropical Storm by sunday afternoon as it loops back around and turns into a tropical depression as it approaches the bahamas once again. We are watching the rain throughout the rest of the afternoon, flash flooding is possible as well. Its eventually going to combine with the cold front. That will help push it out to sea. Its also meaning that its going to draw in some of the tropical moisture. We should see rainfall as far north as new jersey, eastern long island and up into dylan, well be back in a bit.
