Defiant Trump Has Warning for Clinton as Tape Fallout Continues

The personal attacks between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are not letting up after a secretly recorded tape was released of the GOP nominee making lewd, sexually explicit comments about women.

Now Trump is threatening to continue his attacks against the Clintons if they release new recordings.

"If they want to release more tapes saying inappropriate things, we'll continue to talk about Bill and Hillary Clinton doing inappropriate things. There are so many of them," Trump warned.

The lewd tape forced Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus to call committee members on Monday and re-iterate his support for Trump.

"Nothing has changed in regard with our relationship," Priebus told committee members, according to a participant in the call. "We are in full coordination with the Trump campaign. We have a great relationship with them. And we are going to continue to work together to make sure he wins in November."

But House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., is cutting ties with the nominee. He said Monday that he would no longer defend or campaign for Trump, although he didn't withdraw his endorsement.

One well-known theologian, Wayne Grudem, went further, pulling his support from Trump.

"I previously called Donald Trump a 'good candidate with flaws' and a 'flawed candidate,' but I now regret that I did not more strongly condemn his moral character," he wrote in an article on Townhall on Sunday.

Calling Trump's remarks "morally evil," Grudem said, "God intends that men honor and respect women, not abuse them as sexual objects."

But evangelical leaders Ralph Reed and Jerry Falwell, Jr. are still backing him. They refused to defend his remarks, but said his positions on critical issues like abortion and Supreme Court nominees still make him preferable to Clinton.

"We're never going to have a perfect candidate until Jesus Christ reigns forever on the throne," Falwell said.

Meanwhile, on the campaign trail, Clinton is taking full advantage of the fallout.

"You know, it wasn't just this one video that was so disturbing, even shocking," she told supporters. "We have seen this kind of behavior throughout this entire campaign."

Trump's running mate, Mike Pence, is speaking out in Trump's defense. Pence explained that his faith helps him to keep standing by Trump, noting that Trump has apologized.

"It takes a big man to know when he is wrong and to admit it and to have the humility to apologize and be transparent and be vulnerable with people," Pence said.

Meanwhile, Clinton is working to downplay a new WikiLeaks email release. Released Monday, the 70-page document shows a "hits" file against Bernie Sanders from last fall, questioning his progressive bonefides.

The Clinton campaign is blaming the release on Russian President Vladimir Putin.

"It is absolutely disgraceful that the Trump campaign is cheering on a release today engineered by Vladimir Putin to interfere in this election," Clinton spokesperson Glen Caplin told Fox News.

While the lewd 2005 Trump tape has apparently hurt the GOP nominee in the polls, no surveys have been released yet following his strong showing in Sunday night's debate.

With one final debate left, both Trump and Clinton will be working to win over voters, while focusing on the key battleground states that will decide the White House in the Electoral College.
