I don't think Trump is out of the woods, even though his poll numbers are not only staying up, they have actually been strengthened some.

For Donald Trump to go for a 24-plus hours without a word being said is an outrage in and of itself. This is a man who is seeking the nomination of a major political party, very likely to get it. And now look at the leadership he is…

It's very, very big. Not legally, but politically, it's a very, very big deal.

If he had a receptive audience, and I will tell you, when everything -- when all the facts were to come out, it would be like Nixon and the tapes.
