>> and i'm christi paul. always thankful to have your company. we're tracking hurricane matthew now hitting south carolina as we speak here. the eye of it. take a look at some of these pictures we're getting in. reporters along the eastern seaboard. we're going to have live reports for you throughout the morning. but first, we have to get to this bombshell in donald trump's campaign this morning. >> republican nominee making an unprecedented apology in this video. after using vulgar language describing acts that some say amount to sexual assault. >> we're going to play trump's comments right now. i would not be a good person if i did not forewarn you that this is very graphic and there are some things that are quite uncomfortable about it. i just wanted to give you a heads-up. you know and i moved on her actually. you know, she was down on palm beach.

is >> she used to be great. she's still very beautiful. >> i move on her and i failed. i'll admit it. i did try and -- her. she was married. >> that's huge news. >> no, no. nancy. no, this was -- >> and i moved on her very heavily. in fact, i took her out furniture shopping. she wanted to get some furniture. i said, "i'll show you where they have some nice furniture." i moved on her like a [ bleep ] but i couldn't get there. and she was married. then all of a sudden i see her. she's got the big [ bleep ] and everything. she's totally changed her look. >> sheesh, your girl's hot -- in the purple. whoa, the donald is good. whoa, my man. >> look at you. you are a -- >> maybe it's a different one. >> it better not be the publicist. no, it's her. it's her. >> yeah, that's her, with the gold. i've gotta use some tic tacs just in case i start kissing her. you know, i'm automatically attracted to beautiful -- i just start kissing them. it's like a magnet. just kiss. i don't even wait. and when you're a star, they let you do it. you can do anything. >> whatever you want. >> grab them by the [ bleep ] you can do anything.

>> come on shorty. >> oh, nice legs, huh? >> get out of the way, honey. oh, that's good legs. go ahead. >> it's always good if you don't fall out of the bus. like ford, gerald ford, remember? >> down below. pull the handle. >> hello. how are you? >> hi. >> hi, mr. trump. how are you? >> terrific. you know billy bush? >> hello, nice to see you. how are you doing, arianne? >> i'm doing very well. thank you. are you ready to be a soap star? >> we're ready. let's go. make me a soap star. >> how about a little hug for the donald? he just got off the bus. >> would you like a little hug, darling? >> absolutely. melania said this was okay. >> how about a little hug for i just got off the bus. here we go. excellent. well, you've got a nice co-star here. >> the woman is nancy o'dell the

former co-host of "access hollywood" this is according to that show. cnn has reached out to her. we haven't heard back from her yet. in the meantime, the trump camp has swiftly launched into disaster mode it seems early is this morning. most likely, some of you are sleeping. the candidate issued this online apology. >> i've never said i'm a perfect person. i've said and done things i regret and the records released today on this decade old video are one of them. anyone who knows me knows these words don't reflect who i am. i said it, i was wrong and i apologize. i travel the country talking about change for america but my travels have also changed me. i've spent time with grieving mothers who've lost their children, laid-off workers whose jobs have gone to other countries and people from all walks of life who just want a better future. i have gotten to know the great

people of our country and i've been humbled by the faith they placed in me. i pledge to be a better man tomorrow and will never, ever let you down. let's be honest. we're living in the real world. this is nothing more than a distraction from the important issues we're facing today. we're losing our jobs. we're less safe than we were eight years ago and washington is totally broken. hillary clinton and her kind have run our country into the ground. i've said some foolish things but there's a big difference between the words and actions of other people. 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. see you at the debate on sunday. >> we will discuss this more in the coming days, that from donald trump there at the end of that apology. but for a lot of people in trump's party that is not

enough. the most powerful republican in congress disinviting the nominee from a campaign event today. and here is trump's own running mate, dodging reporters. mike pence, you'll see in a moment. dodges those questions before bolting from an event. in a key swing state. ♪ >> all right. so it all comes as insiders tell cnn this could be the death knell for the trump campaign. >> well, the clinton campaign took to twitter for its first reaction to that 2005 footage. here it is. this is horrific. we cannot allow this man to become president. >> clinton's running mate tim kaine later called on republicans to rethink endorsements. >> there's a couple of things i think this suggests and it's just so clear. first, any republican who has

said they are for donald trump, they need to be asked by the press and others and by constituents and others right now, do you still think he's qualified to be president of the united states? >> now, if you were talking about this, house oversight chairman jason chaffetz is pulling his support. >> i'm out. i can no longer endorse donald trump for president. there's no possible way i'd vote for hillary clinton. my wife julie and i, we've got a 15-year-old daughter, do you think i could look her in the eye and tell her that i endorse donald trump for president when he acts like this? >> well, as for house speaker paul ryan, he's not going as far as to rescind or retract his endorsement of mr. trump, he's disinviting him to a public event today. writing this in the statement. i am sickened by what i heard today. women are to be championed and

revered, not objectified. the next 24 hours will be the most conventional of the entire election. let's talk from washington, cnn senior political reporter brianna keilar. and there in st. louis, cnn politics executive editor mark preston. mark, good morning again. and good morning to you for the first time, brianna. >> good morning. jason chaffetz, a top critic of hillary clinton for some time now now retracting his endorsement of donald trump. mark, first to you, put that into context. help people understand the graef gravity of that. >> let's just say this happened very quickly last night around 11:30. jason chaffetz called into cnn and retracted his endorsement. why this is so big? because jason chaffetz has spent the last couple years on capitol hill investigating hillary

clinton going after her specifically about benghazi. as the interview was going on, i received an e-mail from a top level democratic official who says to me, oh, my god, i can't believe chaffetz who went after hillary clinton for so long is now disavowing donald trump. what jason chaffetz is doing is created cover for other republicans. and we have seen a few of them to go out and distance themselves as far as they can from donald trump. we're heading into an election that isn't just going to see donald trump on the ballot. you're going to see ever republican in the house of representatives on the ballot. you're going to see several republican senators on the ballot as well. this is terrible for them and it is going to drag down the ticket. there's concern that they could get caught up in this whole situation. so, i think what we're going to see, victor, as we said in the next 48 hours. i think in the next 24 hours right now, you're going to see a lot more republicans come out and distance themselves publicly

as more and more americans learn what donald trump had said. >> especially when you have somebody like jason chaffetz. he has room, victor, to maneuver politically. you have utah which is the most reliably republican state. donald trump has a comfortable lead. but that was before this happened. he should be just walking away with this race as the republican nominee, and he's not. so you have maneuverability politically for jason chaffetz there. and the other thing is, this is a guy who is very much a family man. and that is something that he has created his political image on. it's also very genuine. you heard him saying, look, i have a 15-year-old daughter. i think that's something where, you know, he's certainly hearing from a lot of people in his state who feel similarly, they're very religiously conservative.

most of his constituents are mormons. they're not cool hearing what's coming out of donald trump's mouth, whether 11 years ago or not. >> mark, people who went to sleep waking up to this 90-second apology. he released it just after midst night. we had it here on cnn. i wonder if this is the appropriate posture heading into the debate on sunday night. or will we see a third apology or treatment of is this from the campaign? >> i can't imagine, victor, that they're not going to have to keep on addressing it. they spent several hours in a crisis mode figuring out how to deal with this. they decided to release that video right after midnight. but was it much of an apology? at the very end, he went right after hillary clinton. specifically bill clinton's infidelity. and said, you'll hear more from me in the coming days. i think that donald trump right now is probably going to go into a slashing and burn-type of

situation against the clintons. i don't think that that's going to be a winning strategy for him at this point. if he wants to try to win over the american public. if he wants to try to get support back from them, he's going to have to apologize in a way that really seemed sincere. if you look at that video, i don't see much sincerity in what donald trump said last night. >> brianna quickly to you, there is other news on the other side of the aisle with hillary clinton. and those e-mails. with the speeches that bernie sanders made so much of during the primary. and we're learning something else said about trade that's getting a lot of attention. >> that's right. she was very much an advocate for trade which was really a hurtful position for her in the primaries and has been in the general election. because she's in this odd situation where she has been for trade. and donald trump as the republican nominee has been very much against trade agreement.

so it's sort of a flipping. now, she has come out and said she's not for the transpacific partnership. she has talked about some of the bad things created by it. a lot of democrats don't believe her. this is something that obviously is not welcome by the clinton campaign. but it's also something that doesn't quite compare to what we're seeing going on with donald trump if ever this was going to come out, something like this and you're a part of the clinton campaign, you're pretty happy that it's coming out at this time when donald trump has something that is just so much more explosive. and if i could add about that apology, one of the most interesting things i've seen reported came from one of our cnn contributors maggie haberman who said there was an adviser in the room that made it clear, you can't be hitting hillary clinton. it's not going to work if you do it in the apology. you saw the apology. he did it against the good

advice of aides. >> brianna keilar, mark preston, thank you both. donald trump and hillary clinton as we mentioned facing off in the second debate co-moderated by our anderson cooper. begins right here at 9:00 eastern on cnn. >> you might be looking at this thinking october 7th, 2016, yesterday, could that be the pivotal day that things turned around in the trump campaign. but which way they turn is the question. >> yeah, the fallout from that shocking tape is just beginning. next where this bombshell tape came from, how it dropped. we'll look into that. also, we want to let you know the latest on hurricane matthew. take a look at the pictures we're getting in. the eye of that storm lashing right now. myrtle beach, charleston, south carolina. it has already drenched florida and georgia. blamed for four deaths in florida. where is it go, how powerful is it? we'll answer those questions in a moment.

so the tape everybody's talking about has been collecting dust on a slefl for 11 years. and then suddenly it becomes a bombshell that rocked the presidential race. where did it come from? who sent it? why drop it now? i think you know the now answer. cnn media correspondent brian stelter joins us with more on that. how did that get from that dusty shelf to our show this morning? >> this was a tape at the nbc archives. the producers of "access hollywood" went on a search for days ago. there have been stories of trump's lewd behavior on the set of "the apprentice." that's when it leak to the "washington post." somebody at nbc wanted to make sure this video was seen before the presidential debate. now, clearly, the whole world

was able to see the tape. we've been wondering what was trump doing that day? why was he on the studio lot? why was he going to visit a soap opera? well, he was on the "the apprentice." and he was doing a cameo of "days of our lives. we dug up that tape. >> i'm afraid i gave you the wrong impression earlier. i was more than victor's trophy wife. i was co-ceo of a major corporation. i know my way around the boardroom. and when comes to be tussle i can put caroline and george to shame. i was just wondering maybe you can consider me for a place in the organization, whatever that might be. i think you'll find that i'm a very willing employee working under you. i think it would be mutually beneficial. >> you know that's an interesting proposition, mrs. cook. i'll get back to you. >> really? >> yeah, really. >> really? >> no.

>> so, that's the soap opera moment that he was taping. he was on the set that day for it. what's interesting about it, victor, a reminder, donald trump is above all else, an entertainer, certainly back in 2000 when he was working on these cameos he was a star day and night building up his brand through television. now, however, the reverse is true. the video coming out friday and then the strange apology video seems to be making a bad thing worse. the question now is, are there other tapes. maybe a better question is how many tapes are there? i asked a source at nbc, does "access hollywood" have other damaging tapes. the source said not that i know of, but you should ask mark burnett. people know mark burnett, he's a famous producer. and thousands of hours of old

unreleased material from "the apprentice" behind the scenes sort of things that were filmed. this source is suggesting there's lots of that kind of material just waiting to be unmined. it's unclear if it can be heard. a lot of political commentators are thinking the same thing there must be even more embarrassing audio and video of donald trump out there somewhere. >> i'm sure there's a team of overworked interns looking through all of those tapes right now. brian stelter in new york. thanks so much. >> you have to pay attention to the big story we're watching today. hurricane matthew's movement. right now, it's lashing the south carolina coast as the eye wall makes land fall there. flooding in florida, four people have died. we'll get the latest on what it's like in south carolina. where it's held, how bad it's going to continue to be. stay close.

see me. see me to know that psoriasis is just something that i have. i'm not contagious. see me to know that... ...i won't stop until i find what works. discover cosentyx, a different kind of medicine for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. proven to help the majority of people find clear or almost clear skin. 8 out of 10 people saw 75% skin clearance at 3 months. while the majority saw 90% clearance. do not use if you are allergic to cosentyx. before starting, you should be tested for tuberculosis. an increased risk of infections and lowered ability to fight them may occur... ...tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms... ...such as fever, sweats, chills, muscle aches or cough. or if you have received a vaccine or plan to. if you have inflammatory bowel disease, tell your doctor if symptoms develop or worsen. serious allergic reactions may occur. see me. see me. see me. on my way. find clear skin... and a clearer path forward. for a different kind of medicine, ask your dermatologist about cosentyx.

ed deadly hurricane has been sweeping the southeast coast for days now. >> yeah, it's been unleashing 100-plus-mile-per-hour winds. the powerful part of that storm is lashing coastal south carolina. look at these pictures. these pictures we're getting in. that's the charleston harbor there. you see the waves coming over it. the storm left four people dead in florida. power has been knocked out to more than 1 million people. and we're getting new information regarding what is coming next from this storm. i'll let you take a look at the latest on the storm's path with cnn's chad myers in the severe

weather center. chad, what are you learning this hour? >> well, those pictures from charleston are disturbing that we're seeing this morning because we're at low tide. when high tide comes in. the regular high tide will push that water four feet higher than it is right now. so, high tide may certainly be well into the city. we're already seeing pictures from some of our affiliates where that water's a couple feet deep. and a couple feet could turn into seven feet. 87 miles per hour in hilton head. we had a 94 at tybee island overnight. i suspect we'll see significant damage in tybee when the sun comes up there. was a record surge in tybee, higher than hurricane david back in 1979 as that storm came in, so, charleston, you're very close to the hugo surge was. you remember how big that storm was. these are just powerful winds blowing significant amounts of

water onshore and it's raining. is this a very wet storm because the storm itself, the center of the eye is still in the gulf stream. earlier, christi, you said the eye wall has made landfall. that is true. but that doesn't mean the storm has made landfall. because officially, the national hurricane center needs the center of the eye to make landfall. that may not happen. who really cares about the center of the eye because that's where it's calm. what has made landfall is the eye wall. the most dangerous part. exactly what you said earlier. the most dangerous part of this storm is completely onshore at this hour. something else i want to take you to, is this, this storm is all the way through washington, d.c., through raleigh, richmond, hampton roads and all the way down to the carolinas. the wetness of this storm will spread rain fall through the carolinas, georgia, possibly into virginia and the northeast before it falls away. there are spots here, guys that

will receive ten inches. every purple spot you see here will receive ten inches of rainfall. that's a flash flood event on a normal day. >> chad, thank you for the clarification. >> no, no, you were absolutely correct. i just wanted to point out how correct you were that the eye wall is on land. we say say that the storm never made landfall. you're correct. i was pointing out your correctness. >> look, if i'm wrong, i want to make sure i tell people i was wrong. i want to get it right for them. so, chad myers -- >> i want to tell people that you were right. >> i appreciate that. thank you, sir. chad is going to be with us all morning because obviously that's a story that we're watching as matthew continues to cross into land. thank you so much, chad. and we'll be right back.

words don't reflect who i am. i said it, i was wrong and i apologize. i travel the country talking >> for more than a year, mr. trump's past and present controversial remarks about women specifically have been front and center for much of his campaign. here's cnn's randi kaye. >> reporter: donald trump says he loves beautiful womenpy he also loves to talk about women and it lands him in hot water. like his long running feud with rosie o'donnell. >> she came to my wedding. she ate like a pig. >> reporter: after the dustup on the fox news debate trump said this on cnn. >> she started asking me all sorts of ridiculous questions. you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. blood coming out of her wherever. >> reporter: critics charged she was referring to menstruation. >> i was going to say necessary and/or ears because that's a

very common statement, blood flowing out of somebody's nose. >> decades after "the new york times" columnist gayle collins wrote about rumors of bankruptcy. he sent her a copy of the article she wrote and circled her and said face of a dog. >> reporter: much is from his appearances on howard stern's radio show. in 2005, he made this remark talking about a woman in a beauty pageant. >> she's unbelievably short and i'm a little bit surprised. i think the boob job is terrible. you know, they look like two light posts coming outside of a body. >> reporter: sterned asked how he's going to change it? >> they said how are you going to change the pageant. i said i'm going to get the bathing suits smaller. i view a person who is flat-chested to be very hard to be a ten. okay. i mean you have to be

extraordinary. you have to have the face of vivian leigh to be a ten. >> reporter: and another appearance on the show -- >> some incredible beautiful women they'll walk up and they'll flip their top. and they'll flip their panties. i've been with women with extraordinarily bad breast jobs. isn't it unbelievable? women, one woman, beautiful, had big beautiful real boobs, and she wants them reduced. >> reporter: years later on the show, trump boldly mocked kim kardashian ace physical. >> reporter: he called her miss piggy and an eating marc. maucking her weight gain. he doubled down on those comments on fox news. >> she was the winner, you know, she gained a massive amount of

weight. it was a really problem. we had a real problem. >> reporter: a candidate struggling to win the support of women on election day in his own words. randi kaye, cnn, new york. >> scotty nell hughes is a trump supporter. a. scott bolden is a supporter of hillary clinton. and i want to play jason chaffetz. the government reform committee chairman. he had given trump his vote now rescinding it. let's listen. >> i'm out. i can no longer endorse donald trump for president. there's no possible way i'd vote for hillary clinton. my wife julie and i we've got a 15-year-old daughter. do you think i can look her in the eye and tell her that i endorse donald trump for president when he acts like this? >> so, scottie, i want to start with you, i know last night you

were on cnn. you said you can't judge trump's words. you will jump hdge his actions. how do you parlay that to people who are on the fence, and people specifically who are so turned off by this, and people whose votes he needs? >> well, don't misunderstand me, christi, these words are horrific. they're horrible. they should never be applied to any man, any human. no way am i defending the words that donald trump said 11 years ago. what i am going to defend, though, is the timing of this because it has to be real interesting. yesterday, we had some major things come out with hillary clinton about her wall street speeches. and brianna actually reported some e-mails. and today was supposed to be a unity reunion by paul ryan. if you don't think that this is a coordinated attempt between media, "washington post," "the

new york times" and hillary clinton. she has to demonize the other candidate. a tactic that we knew was going to happen regardless of who the gop nominee was and donald trump does give unfortunately a lot of rhetoric from the past to give fodder with. >> we are going to talk about the hillary clinton e-mails in a moment but it doesn't change what donald trump himself has said. with that said, scott what do you foresee with the republican party here? how can they pull support for trump when you've got house speaker, even paul ryan, cancelling his event with him. and what does pence do? because as we understand it, pence is taking his place? >> i can't wait to see pence defend this vulgarity and sexual practi predator. >> you don't know that he will. >> i don't know. but he cannot hide from this

sexual predator. nor you can blame hillary clinton and the media. my goodness, donald trump drives this narrative. every time he says something that's offensive to women, a long history of it, they criticize him but won't pull their support. what do they say to their daughters, grand mothers, mothers why they support a candidate who has confirmed he's a sexual predator. republicans need to stop and define exactly how they're going to rebuild their party over the next 10, 20 years because donald trump can't lead when you are a sexist and sexual predator. >> scottie, listen when we look forward to the debate which is happening tomorrow night, in the second apology that donald trump released via video. overnight, about midnight. he said i said some foolish things but there's a big difference between the words and actions of other people.

bill clinton has and hillary clinton has bullied his victims. why would what happened years ago with bill clinton be relevant? >> because we're bringing this. you and i find it absolutely insulting that you're going to call someone who has never been convicted never really been arrested, has no issues whatsoever as calling donald trump a sexual predator. probably scott and other people are going to go -- >> clinton has never been charged -- >> yes, he was. he was impeached from in the oval office. do you call bill clinton a sexual predator. >> it doesn't matter. >> it has nothing to do -- >> wait a minute, we want to get this in. we know this is part of the conversation tomorrow night at the debate. but the e-mails that were just recently leaked from hillary

clinton's camp may also be as well. there are some interesting moments in some of these speeches. these excerpts, scott, from speeches that she gave to wall street execs. some of them talking to the tpp about trade. this could be a real issue for her, could it not? >> well, the trade issue is baked into the numbers already. she has said that she disagrees with the trade agreements that she's once supported. here's the thing. she's said will only support these trade agreements that if they protect the american worker more. so, i don't see -- i saw the excerpts. they weren't from her e-mail. they were from the consultants' e-mail. i think it's a nonstory. even though we're talking about it right now, there's nothing negative, per se, that we haven't seen already in the political makeup of this. >> except, according to the e-mails, i want to go to things she said did say in the 2013 speeches, you need both a public and private position in politics

which may make some people question what her position is either in public or in private. i'm sorry, we've run out of time. i want to make sure that we try to get to everything we can. scottie nell hughes. scott bolden, i know we'll be watching the debate. we'll continue. stay close. still ahead, one day before the debate and four weeks before the election, does the trump campaign have time to recover? what do doctors from leading cancer centers in the country have in common? many of them now call cancer treatment centers of america home. expert medicine works here. find out why at cancer center.com. cancer treatment centers of america. i'm claudine and i quit smoking with chantix. smoking's a monkey on my back.

take a look at the pictures coming in from charleston, south carolina right now. that water coming up above the charleston harbor there. dangerous storm surges already. a major concern, as this storm moves up the southeast coast. it's killed four people in florida. it's left more than 1 million people without power in three states there. and chad myers just recently said this is low tide. high tide isn't even in effect yet. >> before it came to the u.s., matthew killed hundreds of people in haiti. left behind widespread destruction in a nation that's still trying to recover from the devastating earthquake six years ago. >> cnn has reporterses standing by, not only here in the u.s. but also in haiti to show you what matthew's done there and is continuing to do. first, we want to go to cnn international reporter shasta darlington in port-au-prince, haiti. shasta, what are you seeing in the aftermath of this storm? >> reporter: well, christi, it's really staggering, if you look

at it. hurricane matthew actually slammed into haiti back on tuesday. but it's only now that we're beginning to really understand the extent of the devastation. that's because it's taken aide workers and authorities this long to get to those hard-hit areas. the storm knocked out roads, communication, power. it also inundated entire villages and flattened hopes and destroyed livestock and crops. hundreds of people were killed. we don't even know how many yet. the death toll is rising on an hourly basis. officially, 300 people have been confirmed dead. but aide workers tell us they say that could easily triple. right now, of course, the focus is just trying to get help into those people affected. they're trying to helicopter in food and water. also to set up food and shelter. just to give you an example, this town of jeremy, on the southwestern peninsula, 80% of the buildings there were destroyed. and they initially had plans to

have five shelters set up. so you have this huge influx of people looking for a place to stay. looking for clean water. this is what authorities and aide workers are dealing with, just trying to get them help. as us mentioned, this is a country still struggling to rebuild after the 2012 earthquake that killed thousands of people. some were still living in tentses. this is a huge effort ahead. the big concern looking forward, there was a big outbreak of cholera after that outbreak. thousands were killed because of cholera. even now, there are cases of cholera, the urgency is we've seen the pictures of some of the people who were still living in those tents. they almost look like tent cities who had not even recovered yet from the earthquake. do we know, were they taken to other shelters?

do we know? are all of those people accounted for yet? >> reporter: the information is really piecemeal at this point. what the authorities and aide workers are trying to put it together, we're trying to put it together, we know the first day after matthew they talked about two dead, five dead and now we're up to 300 and that is climbing. the same goes for the number of people who were displaced. a lot of physical structures were destroyed. you can just imagine what happened to tent cities that were in the path of matthew. again, it's a matter of everybody getting in there with all of these roads -- these roads destroyed to figure out what's going on. that's what we're looking at right now. that's the process that we're in. >> i can't imagine what these people are going through. sash ta darlington, thank you for bringing that information. we appreciate it. we'll be right back. can a toothpaste do everything well?

donald trump facing strong condemnation this morning after this tape was released. watch. >> i'm automatically attracted to beautiful. it's like a magnet. and when you're a star, they let you do it. you can do anything. grab them by the [ bleep ]. you can do anything. >> mr. trump was playing damage control yesterday posting this video of apology on facebook. >> i've never said i'm a perfect person nor pretended to be someone i'm not.

i've said and done things i regret and the records released today on this decade old video are one of them. anyone who knows me knows these words don't reflect who i am. >> but the damage is already being felt and questions are now swirling about who leaked this footage. cnn spoke with the washington post reporter who broke the story. we spoke with him last night. watch. >> so david, i know you're not going to disclose your source on this, whoever gave this to you or alerted you to it, obviously knew they had something big on their hands. can you give us anymore details on this. >> i really can't. i can't say much of anything how i got ahold of this. >> when you heard it the first time, what was your reaction? >> well, just that it was shocking. i mean, this is a voice of donald trump that you've heard now for a couple of years solid. a voice you've gotten used to hearing in a political context and here he was discussing this stuff in a pretty lewd and outrageous manner. i was really surprised. >> he calls this locker room

banter. but the thing is he's 56 years old and it's not just crass language, it's predatory. he says, you know, near a star, you can do anything, you can grab them by the -- and then he goes on. >> it's not just, hey, look at that woman. isn't she hot. it's sort of goes beyond that to talk about what he does. he's describing not what he would like to do but what he has done apparently to women in describing how because he's a star he can kiss them if he wants to and he can grope them. that's what makes this more interesting and more shocking. look at this woman, she's a ten. this is what i have done to women in the past and will do again. >> you can judge the magnitude on this by the fact that the trump campaign responded very quickly with a statement that included the word apologize. so let's break this down into two parts, right? because he's apologizing if anyone was offended, which "the washington post," you know that's a non-apology apology.

>> yeah, that's right. he apologized to people who were offended which obviously leaves room that many people will listen to this and see this and not be offended by that. >> we'll play more of that throughout the morning. let's take a turn now. u.s. officials now say they know who is responsible for interfering with the political system here and potentially the election in november. we'll look into that next. ♪ ♪ jon batiste has mastered new ways to play old classics. with chase atms, he can master new ways to deposit checks too. easy to use chase technology for whatever you're trying to master. they keep telling me "drink more water."

"exercise more." i know that. "try laxatives..." i know. believe me. it's like i've. tried. everything! my chronic constipation keeps coming back. i know that. tell me something i don't know.

another political story that might have gotten buried under a lot of the news we've been talking about this morning, the obama administration saying it

is now confident that russia is to blame for the hacking e-mails related to the election. >> officials say the hackers were trying to interfere with the election process. now, the announcement marks the first time that the u.s. has officially accused u.s. of hacking into u.s. political systems. for its part, russia calls the accusations, quote, nonsense. ♪ >> i said it. i was wrong. and i apologize. >> a bomb shell in the race for the white house. this is a political earthquake. >> it's inexcusable. >> i'm out. i can no longer in good conscientious endorse this person for president. >> any republican who has said they are for donald trump, do you still think he's qualified to be president of the united states? >> see you at the debate on sunday. ♪ good morning to you.
