US election: Donald Trump says he will not quit over video

US presidential candidate Donald Trump has said he will never drop out of the race to be president. He would never let his supporters down, he added.

Mr Trump has been under pressure after a tape from 2005 of him making obscene comments and bragging about groping and kissing women emerged on Friday.

He told the Wall Street Journal there was "zero chance I'll quit" and he was getting "unbelievable" support.
Top Republicans have condemned Mr Trump's remarks in the video.

Since the tape emerged, at least 10 Republican senators have either said they will not be voting for the Republican candidate in the general election in 30 days' time, or have called for him to stand aside.

In an exuberantly capitalised tweet, the Republican candidate said "the media and establishment want me out of the race so badly".

Mr Trump's wife Melania issued a statement on Saturday saying: "The words my husband used are unacceptable and offensive to me."

She said her husband had "the heart and mind of a leader".

Mr Trump's election rival Hillary Clinton called the comments "horrific".

His running mate Mike Pence said he was "offended" by Mr Trump's video, but grateful he had expressed remorse and apologised to the American people.

"We pray for his family" he said in a statement.
