Donald Trump professes love for women amid latest row

Donald Trump has professed his love for women and said he would be their best advocate if elected president, dismissing the firestorm of his own making that has consumed the Republican presidential campaign.

Even as he asserted that one of his main challengers is the one in trouble with women voters, the only woman in the GOP contest said she believes women are “horrified” by Trump’s comments and that the billionaire businessman may be unprepared for the pressure that comes with being president.

“I apologise when I’m wrong, but I haven’t been wrong. I said nothing wrong”, said Trump, who called in to four Sunday news shows, skipping only Fox News, the network with which he is feuding.
