Washington — Donald Trump, facing the deepest crisis of his US presidential campaign, apologised early on Saturday for crude and aggressively sexual remarks about women that he made in 2005, as criticism swelled from within his Republican Party.

The Republican nominee, in a shocking video released by The Washington Post Friday, was caught using vulgar language about groping and kissing women with impunity.

“I’ve said and done things I regret,” he said in a televised apology, believed to be the first of his 16-month White House campaign.

“Anyone who knows me knows these words don’t reflect who I am. I said it, I was wrong, and I apologise.”

Trump was facing savage criticism after the release of the video, which landed like a bombshell and gave his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton fresh ammunition to attack his misogyny as they prepared for their second presidential debate, on Sunday in St. Louis. — AFP
