She wrote in the same story about me - - that she saw me on 5th Avenue, and I said to her, 'Natasha, how come we don't see you anymore?' I was never friends with her, I would not recognize her."That, Melania Trump said, "was another thing like people come out saying lies and not true stuff."It was the first public defense Melania Trump has made of her husband since a tape in which Trump bragged about sexually aggressive behavior toward women was published by The Washington Post and NBC. In the wake of that report, several women have accused Trump of sexual misconduct. Trump said her husband was "egged on" in the 2.

I said to my husband that, you know, the language was inappropriate. It's not acceptable. And I was surprised, because that is not the man that I know," she said."And as you can see from the tape, the cameras were not on - - it was only a mic.

And I wonder if they even knew that the mic was on," she said, referring to Trump and NBC's "Access Hollywood" host Billy Bush. She said they were engaged in "boy talk, and he was led on - - like, egged on - - from the host to say dirty and bad stuff." She said she agrees with Michelle Obama's assertion that kissing or groping a woman without consent is sexual assault. But every assault should be taken care of in a court of law. And to accuse, no matter who it is, a man or a woman, without evidence is damaging and unfair," she said.

Melania Trump defended her husband's criticism on the campaign trail of his accusers' looks - - an implication that the women who have alleged his misconduct aren't attractive enough to sexually assault. I know he respects women'"He's raw. He will say it as he feels it. So you know, I know he respects women. But he's defending himself because they're lies," she said. She said she jokes that her husband at times behaves like an overgrown boy - - and that she saw his "Access Hollywood" remarks as emblematic of that.

Sometimes I say I have two boys at home - - I have my young son and I have my husband. But I know how some men talk, and that's how I saw it, yes," she said.

She said she would keep their personal conversations private - - but that Trump apologized for his remarks on the tape. I accept his apology.

I hope the American people will accept it as well. And it was many, many years ago. He's not the man that I know," she said. Melania Trump called her husband "real" and "raw" - - and said because of his years as an entertainer, he faced an especially tough challenge transitioning into politics, because he has made decades' worth of controversial comments."It's very hard, especially for him - - when he decided to run for the presidency, because he did so many stuff in his life.

He was on so many tapes, so many shows. And we knew that - - that, you know, tapes will come out, people won't want to go against him. But my husband is real. He's raw. He tells it like it is. He's kind. He's a gentleman. He supports everybody. He supports women.

He encourages them to go to the highest level, to achieve their dreams. He employs many, many women," she said. He didn't say he did it'She said she wouldn't describe what Trump said on the tape as sexual assault, even though in the video Trump appeared to be describing his own actions. No, that's not sexual assault," she said.

He didn't say he did it." Melania Trump said she believes Trump in part because she's seen him deflect brazen advances from other women. I see many, many women coming to him and giving phone numbers and, you know, want(ing) to work for him - - inappropriate stuff from women. And they know he's married," she said. You've seen that?" Cooper asked. Oh yes, of course. It was in front of me," Trump said.

In front of me. And I've said, like, 'Why did you give your number to my husband?' " Melania Trump reserved her strongest critique for the political press, which she says has yet to report an accurate story about her. I didn't expect media would be so dishonest and so mean. I didn't expect that," she said. Also for me, from the beginning, I never had one correct story - - one honest story."She backed her husband's claims that the election is being rigged in Hillary Clinton's favor, arguing that media bias is undercutting her husband. Well I see it how the media is portraying - - I see how they report things, and what they want to say and what they don't want to say," she said.

She added: "He wants to secure the borders, he wants to secure America, he wants to bring jobs back, he wants to bring economy back, and he's very passionate about American people, because he knows he can do that. He's a worker, he's a fighter, he is, he's very passionate about it, and he will not give up, he will fight till the end, and he will fight for American people as he's fighting now for himself."Melania Trump also made clear she doesn't want sympathy. I'm very strong. And people - - they don't really know me. People think and talk about me like, 'Oh, Melania, oh poor Melania,'" she said. Don't feel sorry for me.

Don't feel sorry for me. I can handle everything," she added.

I am.""I said it, I was wrong and I apologize," Trump said of footage from a previously unaired taping of "Access Hollywood" that surfaced Friday, in which Trump said he tried to "fuck" a married woman and bragged about being able to grope women because of his "star" status. But Trump quickly pivoted back onto the attack, raising Bill Clinton's sex scandals and Hillary Clinton's role in discrediting women who had affairs with her husband."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."And in closing, Trump added ominously: "We will discuss this more in the coming days. See you at the debate on Sunday."While Trump refuted the lewd terms in which he discussed women in the 2.

But the bombshell 2. Trump on his heels - - with Republicans warning of his demise - - and the brash billionaire appears prepared to do what he does best: punch back. Trump is heard discussing women in vulgar terms during off- camera banter during the taping of a segment for "Access Hollywood," footage which was obtained by The Washington Post. During the lewd conversation captured by a microphone Trump was wearing on his lapel, Trump recounts how he tried to "fuck" an unidentified married woman before bragging that he is "automatically attracted to beautiful (women)" and just starts "kissing them.""Access Hollywood" later identified the unidentified woman as Nancy O'Dell, who used to work for the show. CNN has attempted to contact O'Dell's manager but has not heard back. In the video, Trump uses the name "Nancy." The conversation came months after Trump married his third and current wife, Melania.

He also said: "When you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything .. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything."The jaw- dropping description of uninhibited sexual assault as a benefit of his celebrity poses a substantial setback to Trump's attempts to overcome his deficit with female voters with just a month until Election Day. Clinton and her campaign have repeatedly sought to portray Trump as disrespectful and demeaning toward women, bringing up a slew of rude and vulgar comments Trump has made about women during and before his run for president. House Speaker Paul Ryan, saying he was "sickened" by Trump's comments, announced Friday night that the GOP presidential nominee would no longer attend a Republican event in Wisconsin at which the two were slated to appear on Saturday. Multiple sources told CNN that Trump was asked not to come by Ryan, and one source said the message was delivered via intermediaries.

Trump's campaign said vice presidential nominee Mike Pence would represent him instead while the real estate magnate focuses on debate prep. Trump campaign advisers were huddling together in Trump Tower Friday night trying to figure out how to react. Among the options being considered was whether Trump should make a public appearance Friday night. The comments immediately raised the stakes for Sunday's highly anticipated debate between Trump and Clinton, and the remarks could hand her - - and viewers in the town hall audience - - more evidence to make that point. And the remarks prompted Trump - - for the first time in his nearly 1.

This was locker room banter, a private conversation that took place many years ago. Bill Clinton has said far worse to me on the golf course - not even close. Watch Remains 4Shared more.

I mean, gosh, I'm sad to say that I'm not surprised," Kaine said.

I should be surprised and shocked. I'm sad to say that I'm not."A Clinton campaign source told CNN the campaign strategy in the wake of the tape will be to press Republicans to say if they still think Trump should be president."Not just condemn what he said - - but that he should be POTUS," the source said. Two people close to the campaign told CNN the former secretary of state was unlikely to speak about the controversy Friday night. But it has become a new subject of her debate prep, and the campaign will pressure Ryan and other Republicans to disavow Trump throughout the weekend. The hot mic conversation captured in 2. Trump recounting to "Access Hollywood" host Billy Bush how he tried to have sex with a married woman."I moved on her and I failed. I'll admit it," Trump says in the newly- released audio.

I did try and fuck her. She was married.""I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn't get there. And she was married," Trump adds, after saying he took the woman - - who is identified only by her first name - - out furniture shopping."Then all of a sudden I see her, she's now got the big phony tits and everything.

She's totally changed her look," Trump says of the woman. The conversation took place as Trump arrived in a tour bus on the set of "Days of Our Lives," the soap opera where he was set to make a cameo appearance. Before Trump stepped off the bus, he and Bush appear to see an actress from the soap opera who greets Trump and Bush."Whoa!" Trump says. 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 .. Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything," Trump says."Whatever you want," says another voice. Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus condemned Trump's remark in a briefly, tersely- worded statement."No woman should ever be described in these terms or talked about in this manner. Ever," Priebus wrote.

Journalists covering a Toledo, Ohio, campaign stop by Pence were ushered out of a restaurant soon after the story broke. The press was supposed to cover Pence looking at a wall of signed hot dogs, including one by Trump, but were later told they couldn't record the moment. A campaign staffer later told CNN the decision had "nothing to do with the news."Pence declined to answer a question about the matter when asked by a reporter following a campaign event in Rossford, Ohio.

Some of Trump's old political foes rushed to slam the GOP nominee."As the grandfather of two precious girls, I find that no apology can excuse away Donald Trump's reprehensible comments degrading women," Jeb Bush tweeted."Hitting on married women? Condoning assault?
