Trump labels sexually aggressive comments ‘locker room talk’
9NEWS
Donald Trump has again downplayed lewd comments he made in a leaked video in 2005 as just “locker room talk”.
“I’m very embarrassed by it, I hate it, but it’s locker room talk. It’s one of those things,” Mr Trump said in the town-hall style debate.
“I’m not proud of it… I apologise to the American people.”

He followed up with his apology about the comments, which saw him refer to grabbing “women by the p---y”, denying he would ever do the things he discussed in the video.
His opponent Hillary Clinton slammed his defence, saying the tape “represents exactly who he is”.
