Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
With me are the broadcaster Penny Smith and the | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
The Observer, most of their front page dominated by Donald Trump. The | :00:20. | :00:39. | |
Observer has him battling to stay in the race as the few regrows over | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
that tape from 11 years ago where he made some pretty sexist remarks. Is | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
he really battling to stay in the race, is there any chance he might | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
drop out? He keeps saying he won't quit and doesn't want to let his | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
supporters down. He says he would never withdraw. His apology, he kept | :00:58. | :01:06. | |
on saying it was in 2005. Yes, because of course he was so much | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
younger than because he was 59. It's not as though he was 16 or | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
something. It's not as though, we shouldn't be surprised, should we, | :01:19. | :01:26. | |
about this. I wasn't particularly surprised. I know the words were | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
offensive but I wonder how many people were genuinely surprised. | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
What's interesting is a lot of senior Republicans, we've just heard | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
Senator John McCain, withdrawing their support for him. It may have | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
been reluctant support but they are almost using it as a pretext to pull | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
away from him and disown him. I think they've been looking for that | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
excuse. With these kind of comments it's not hard to have that | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
justification. Ultimately the reality they are faced with is | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
legally and technically there is no mechanism by which they can actually | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
remove him, even if they wanted to. There's increasing sense his vice | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
president Mike Pence could step into the frame. In order to replace him | :02:12. | :02:19. | |
he would need to declare himself as disabled. The 25th amendment to the | :02:20. | :02:30. | |
American Constitution says where a president becomes disabled somebody | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
can step in. Or dies. Let's hope not. Either he can be declared | :02:38. | :02:44. | |
disabled or he can withdraw and of course he went. The Sunday Times has | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
a similar front page. And a picture of TV presenter Nancy O'Dell who was | :02:49. | :03:01. | |
the target of the comments. His wife has said she finds these comments | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
offensive and unacceptable and his running mate Mike Pence has said the | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
same thing. There isn't anybody really who can say they support his | :03:10. | :03:19. | |
comments in any way. Even Donald Trump doesn't. Robert Dinero has | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
said he would like to punch him. He said he will fight back in the TV | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
debate against Henry Clinton. That might backfire if he goes on the | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
offensive about Bill Clinton. A lot of women think she was more sinned | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
against than sinner, despite her comments in the past about trying to | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
get rid of comments made by women. I think that the problem is that | :03:43. | :03:50. | |
they've had that meeting. They've tried to sleep if there's any way he | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
can be replaced and he can't. It seems like a real crisis for the | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
campaign now but there's still quite a few weeks until polling. Without | :04:01. | :04:10. | |
getting too analytical... You are welcome to be analytical. About 30% | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
of Republican supporters would like Mike Pence to take over which means | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
70% don't. A man who essentially wants to build a wall to stop | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
Mexicans coming in and try and build a wall against Muslim voters. I | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
think what we are going to see at the second debate is a much more | :04:32. | :04:38. | |
combative Donald Trump, advised by Nigel Farage. Whether you like it or | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
loathe Nigel Farage's politics, having interviewed him many times | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
comic he's the perfect person to interview. Whether you agree with | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
him or not he will say well yes and say whatever he is going to say. I | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
think we are going to see Donald Trump talk about the allegations | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
made by various women about the Clintons and Hillary Clinton will | :05:01. | :05:02. | |
fight back against that. It will come down to sex and gender. Let's | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
show you The Sunday Telegraph front page. They've got a picture of this | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
show he was on when he was on his way to this appearance with an | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
actress. By highlighting a line from Tim Stanley who is writing about it | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
inside the paper saying the US right is supposed to be big on morality, | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
compromise with Trump Lisa looking hypocritical and debased. It is a | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
question for the right. They often call themselves the moral majority | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
stop white do they still back Fevipiprant? | :05:46. | :05:54. | |
-- do they still back Trump? I'm sure lots of people are looking at | :05:55. | :06:05. | |
this... In a sense Hillary doesn't need those sort of people to vote | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
for her, if people aren't voting for Trump and abstaining... That's true. | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
It could be disastrous for his whole campaign but I really think the sort | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
of people who vote on the whole know what Donald Trump is. When I say | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
that I'm not being pro or anti any candidate but people know he has | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
flaws, he says he has flaws... As Penny said at the beginning it won't | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
surprise shock many people. If he were 201I think people would forgive | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
it a bit more. Let's move onto the front page of The Telegraph which is | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
about Brexit. NU Cabinet split says The Sunday Telegraph has emerged | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
over the handling of Brexit as ministers privately attacked each | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
other over how to approach EU negotiations. It's not as though we | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
are surprised again. Is anyone surprised on this one either? Are | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
you surprised by any news, Penny? There are certain things you go, | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
that is a surprise, but not this. It's not as though people's views on | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
Europe, particularly the Conservatives which have always been | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
riven with factions for and against... They've got the Brexit, | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
it's always been a divisive issue but here's all the European rules, | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
they can rip that up and start again, but still they are fighting | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
about whether they are doing a hard Brexit or soft Brexit. I don't even | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
know what they mean and I was a political correspondent. This focus | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
is on Philip Hammond the Chancellor. He is on the right of the | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
Conservative Party. But not wanting a hard Brexit. For obvious reasons. | :07:46. | :07:58. | |
Look what happened to the pound as soon as we heard about hard Brexit. | :07:59. | :08:05. | |
Philip Hammond, Chancellor Sir if you're watching I'm sorry to say | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
this, I'm sure he is one of his advisers are, but it's not his first | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
area. He is learning as much as anybody else. He saying watch out, | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
the economy is on a precipice, better do something, this is what | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
I'm going to do, he says. Thank you so much for being with us. I've | :08:27. | :08:33. | |
ruined the paper! I've done that before! | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
Thank you Sean and Penny, you'll both be back at 11:30pm | :08:37. | :08:38. | |
for another look at the stories making the news tomorrow. | :08:39. | :08:41. |
