The New Hampshire senator dropped her support for Trump on Saturday.

"He needs to come out in the first couple of minutes and he has to express genuine contrition", said Lanhee Chen, Mitt Romney's former policy director Saturday on CNN.

Although Trump has apologized, he has not yet addressed serious concerns raised by the hot mic video.

Bill Dallas of the evangelical group United in objective said he thinks Christian voters will forgive Trump - if he can convince them he's had a change of heart.
