The word this evening is that Donald J. Trump is going to release a video of him issuing a full apology for what he said 11 years ago about women.
The Republican presidential nominee was heard making statements about how he put moves on a married woman. The recording contains some lewd, profane language.
It is disgusting in the extreme.
So, the question is this: Does a full-throated apology from the GOP nominee erase what he said? Does it expunge the record? Does it mean he can proceed as if nothing happened at all?
I think not.
