Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump waves to supporters outside the front door of Trump Tower where he lives in the Manhattan borough of New York, U.S., October 8, 2016. Trump, then a reality TV star, is heard on the video talking on an open microphone about groping women and trying to seduce a married woman. The controversy has pitched Trump, 70, into the biggest crisis of his 16-month-old campaign and deepened fissures between him and establishment Republicans. The threat to Trump’s campaign was good news for investors in Mexico’s peso, which surged more than 1.8 percent to 18.955 per dollar before the debate after markets in Asia began Monday trading. The Trump campaign was battling back, circulating “talking points” to a core of high-profile Republicans who promote Trump in the news media.
