Tried many ways to install apexpy but failed anyway

I followed all the instructions trying to get apexpy installed but so far none of the methods worked.

In general, using pip to install apexpy, errors always show up as:

Furthermore, I found out the error message could be related to installing mensopy, I put error messages below when applying pip install mensopy
