Don't sweat it, Donald. We don't like you for your winning personality. We are voting for you to build that damn wall, to scrap the bad trade deals, to bring industry back to the USA and to stop the war with Russia that the current goon in the White House has planned out with the degenerate vanity whore, Hillary Clinton.
We don't give a fuck about your off comments and crass statements. None of that matters worth a hill of beans. We want the USA and the West To rebound and we want Islam put back into the trash can it crawled out of.

He apologizes, but doesn't back down on his agenda

He now has a tactical problem because he wants a pass on something that happened 10+ years ago, while going after the husband of his opponent for something similar that happened 20 years ago.
looks bad.

'I’ve said and done things I regret, and the words released today on this more than a decade-old video are one of them. '
'I’ve never said I’m a perfect person, nor pretended to be someone that I’m not. '
'I have gotten to know the great people of our country, and I’ve been humbled by the faith they’ve placed in me. '
'Anyone who knows me, know these words don’t reflect who I am. '
'We are losing our jobs, we are less safe than we were 8 years ago and Washington is broken. '

That video is awesome, tbh. Makes me like him even more to know he is a human. I had a similar situation one day I was taking a shit at work and my then boss thought the bathroom was empty and came in on his phone like that fucking pussy are you fucking serious and that went on for a few minutes like that. I coughed under my breath eventually because it just wouldn't stop. My boss was very PC and passive aggressive very badly btw and we did not like each other because I didn't give a fuck about what I said because I worked good and I worked hard and got shit done. But, I received a very sincere apology after that and said man, I like you a lot more today than I did yesterday. Patted his back and walked out of the office.

The funniest thing about the original video is that Donald doesn't know how to open a door.
