Days after a tape of Donald Trump talking about grabbing women by the "pussy" was released, his campaign manager Kellyanne Conway urged Republicans to stop "pussyfooting around" already and decide if they'd support their party's nominee. After the tape from 2005 emerged Friday, several Republicans denounced Trump's comments, including House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), who announced Monday he would no longer defend Trump or campaign for him.

"We want the support of anybody who's going to publicly endorse us," Conway said Wednesday on ABC's Good Morning America. "But enough of the pussyfooting around in terms of, you know, do you support us or do you not support us. And the fact is that some of these leaders have been very wishy-washy."
