12 times Donald Trump declared his 'respect' for women

(CNN) How much does Donald Trump "respect" women?

Just let him tell you. Over and over again.

"There's nobody that has more respect for women than I do," he said during an interview in Nevada earlier this week.

It was a common claim, given in response to a familiar question centered on past insults and demeaning comments about women. But the argument will be a tougher sell in the wake of a newly obtained 2005 video, published by The Washington Post on Friday, in which Trump can be heard making a series of jarringly comments that drew immediate criticism from fellow Republicans.

"You know, I'm automatically attracted to beautiful (women), I just start kissing them," he says during the taping of an "Access Hollywood" segment. "It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything. ... Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything."

At odds with the newly uncovered tape, here are 12 times Trump told voters about his deep reverence for women:

1. "I cherish women. I want to help women. I'm going to do things for women that no other candidate will be able to do."
