I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in, the economic freedom that conservatives used to believe in, and the personal freedom that America used to believe in.

Donald Trump Hits A New Low

Just when I thought that the mouth of Manhattan couldn’t possibly do or say something more stupid than we’ve already seen, he says something that really is pretty disturbing.

NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump joked that he would date his 24-year-old daughter, Ivanka – if he weren’t her father.

Trump and Ivanka, a vice president of real estate development at the Trump Organization, appeared Monday on ABC’s “The View” to promote her five-episode stint as a boardroom adviser on “The Apprentice.”

When asked how he would react if Ivanka, a former teen model, posed for Playboy, Trump replied, “It would be really disappointing – not really – but it would depend on what’s inside the magazine.”

He added: “I don’t think Ivanka would do that, although she does have a very nice figure. I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.”

Ummm, I really don’t know what else to say about this. Of course, his spokesmen said it was all just a joke:

Trump’s representative, Jim Dowd, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that Trump “was absolutely joking.”

“He was making fun of himself for his tendency to date younger women,” Dowd said. “It’s a sense of humor that people don’t see (from him) all the time.”

Okay, so Donald wouldn’t really date his own daughter. He’d just date someone who was her age, or maybe younger. Will someone please tell this man his fifteen minutes are so over ?
