:00:14. > :00:16.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:17. > :00:19.With me are the broadcaster Penny Smith and the

:00:20. > :00:39.The Observer, most of their front page dominated by Donald Trump. The

:00:40. > :00:44.Observer has him battling to stay in the race as the few regrows over

:00:45. > :00:48.that tape from 11 years ago where he made some pretty sexist remarks. Is

:00:49. > :00:53.he really battling to stay in the race, is there any chance he might

:00:54. > :00:57.drop out? He keeps saying he won't quit and doesn't want to let his

:00:58. > :01:06.supporters down. He says he would never withdraw. His apology, he kept

:01:07. > :01:12.on saying it was in 2005. Yes, because of course he was so much

:01:13. > :01:18.younger than because he was 59. It's not as though he was 16 or

:01:19. > :01:26.something. It's not as though, we shouldn't be surprised, should we,

:01:27. > :01:29.about this. I wasn't particularly surprised. I know the words were

:01:30. > :01:35.offensive but I wonder how many people were genuinely surprised.

:01:36. > :01:40.What's interesting is a lot of senior Republicans, we've just heard

:01:41. > :01:44.Senator John McCain, withdrawing their support for him. It may have

:01:45. > :01:49.been reluctant support but they are almost using it as a pretext to pull

:01:50. > :01:53.away from him and disown him. I think they've been looking for that

:01:54. > :01:57.excuse. With these kind of comments it's not hard to have that

:01:58. > :02:02.justification. Ultimately the reality they are faced with is

:02:03. > :02:05.legally and technically there is no mechanism by which they can actually

:02:06. > :02:11.remove him, even if they wanted to. There's increasing sense his vice

:02:12. > :02:19.president Mike Pence could step into the frame. In order to replace him

:02:20. > :02:30.he would need to declare himself as disabled. The 25th amendment to the

:02:31. > :02:37.American Constitution says where a president becomes disabled somebody

:02:38. > :02:44.can step in. Or dies. Let's hope not. Either he can be declared

:02:45. > :02:48.disabled or he can withdraw and of course he went. The Sunday Times has

:02:49. > :03:01.a similar front page. And a picture of TV presenter Nancy O'Dell who was

:03:02. > :03:05.the target of the comments. His wife has said she finds these comments

:03:06. > :03:09.offensive and unacceptable and his running mate Mike Pence has said the

:03:10. > :03:19.same thing. There isn't anybody really who can say they support his

:03:20. > :03:22.comments in any way. Even Donald Trump doesn't. Robert Dinero has

:03:23. > :03:29.said he would like to punch him. He said he will fight back in the TV

:03:30. > :03:35.debate against Henry Clinton. That might backfire if he goes on the

:03:36. > :03:38.offensive about Bill Clinton. A lot of women think she was more sinned

:03:39. > :03:42.against than sinner, despite her comments in the past about trying to

:03:43. > :03:50.get rid of comments made by women. I think that the problem is that

:03:51. > :03:57.they've had that meeting. They've tried to sleep if there's any way he

:03:58. > :04:00.can be replaced and he can't. It seems like a real crisis for the

:04:01. > :04:10.campaign now but there's still quite a few weeks until polling. Without

:04:11. > :04:16.getting too analytical... You are welcome to be analytical. About 30%

:04:17. > :04:22.of Republican supporters would like Mike Pence to take over which means

:04:23. > :04:27.70% don't. A man who essentially wants to build a wall to stop

:04:28. > :04:31.Mexicans coming in and try and build a wall against Muslim voters. I

:04:32. > :04:38.think what we are going to see at the second debate is a much more

:04:39. > :04:42.combative Donald Trump, advised by Nigel Farage. Whether you like it or

:04:43. > :04:45.loathe Nigel Farage's politics, having interviewed him many times

:04:46. > :04:51.comic he's the perfect person to interview. Whether you agree with

:04:52. > :04:55.him or not he will say well yes and say whatever he is going to say. I

:04:56. > :05:00.think we are going to see Donald Trump talk about the allegations

:05:01. > :05:02.made by various women about the Clintons and Hillary Clinton will

:05:03. > :05:07.fight back against that. It will come down to sex and gender. Let's

:05:08. > :05:13.show you The Sunday Telegraph front page. They've got a picture of this

:05:14. > :05:20.show he was on when he was on his way to this appearance with an

:05:21. > :05:26.actress. By highlighting a line from Tim Stanley who is writing about it

:05:27. > :05:33.inside the paper saying the US right is supposed to be big on morality,

:05:34. > :05:40.compromise with Trump Lisa looking hypocritical and debased. It is a

:05:41. > :05:45.question for the right. They often call themselves the moral majority

:05:46. > :05:54.stop white do they still back Fevipiprant?

:05:55. > :06:05.-- do they still back Trump? I'm sure lots of people are looking at

:06:06. > :06:09.this... In a sense Hillary doesn't need those sort of people to vote

:06:10. > :06:16.for her, if people aren't voting for Trump and abstaining... That's true.

:06:17. > :06:20.It could be disastrous for his whole campaign but I really think the sort

:06:21. > :06:26.of people who vote on the whole know what Donald Trump is. When I say

:06:27. > :06:32.that I'm not being pro or anti any candidate but people know he has

:06:33. > :06:39.flaws, he says he has flaws... As Penny said at the beginning it won't

:06:40. > :06:42.surprise shock many people. If he were 201I think people would forgive

:06:43. > :06:49.it a bit more. Let's move onto the front page of The Telegraph which is

:06:50. > :06:53.about Brexit. NU Cabinet split says The Sunday Telegraph has emerged

:06:54. > :06:57.over the handling of Brexit as ministers privately attacked each

:06:58. > :07:01.other over how to approach EU negotiations. It's not as though we

:07:02. > :07:06.are surprised again. Is anyone surprised on this one either? Are

:07:07. > :07:10.you surprised by any news, Penny? There are certain things you go,

:07:11. > :07:15.that is a surprise, but not this. It's not as though people's views on

:07:16. > :07:18.Europe, particularly the Conservatives which have always been

:07:19. > :07:24.riven with factions for and against... They've got the Brexit,

:07:25. > :07:28.it's always been a divisive issue but here's all the European rules,

:07:29. > :07:32.they can rip that up and start again, but still they are fighting

:07:33. > :07:36.about whether they are doing a hard Brexit or soft Brexit. I don't even

:07:37. > :07:41.know what they mean and I was a political correspondent. This focus

:07:42. > :07:45.is on Philip Hammond the Chancellor. He is on the right of the

:07:46. > :07:58.Conservative Party. But not wanting a hard Brexit. For obvious reasons.

:07:59. > :08:05.Look what happened to the pound as soon as we heard about hard Brexit.

:08:06. > :08:11.Philip Hammond, Chancellor Sir if you're watching I'm sorry to say

:08:12. > :08:16.this, I'm sure he is one of his advisers are, but it's not his first

:08:17. > :08:22.area. He is learning as much as anybody else. He saying watch out,

:08:23. > :08:26.the economy is on a precipice, better do something, this is what

:08:27. > :08:33.I'm going to do, he says. Thank you so much for being with us. I've

:08:34. > :08:36.ruined the paper! I've done that before!

:08:37. > :08:38.Thank you Sean and Penny, you'll both be back at 11:30pm

:08:39. > :08:41.for another look at the stories making the news tomorrow.
