Donald Trump was "joking" when he said he would date his daughter
Filed under: Celeb Kids, Media
The big celeb gossip story yesterday was real estate
tycoon-turned-TV-star Donald Trump telling the women on The View that if his 24-year-old ex-model daughter
Ivanka wasn't his daughter, he would date her. Direct quote: She does have a very nice figure. I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.
In a word? Gross.
According to the Celebrity Baby Blog, today, there is fall-out (oh, really?) with his publicists scrambling to explain that he "was absolutely joking." Maybe so, but it isn't the first time he's said something that makes the eyes roll.

Ms Sisyphus said...Squicked out doesn't even begin to describe my reaction to this.
And isn't his wife younger than his daughter?

The context gives a bit more meaner. I don't think it's that weird--it was an off-hand comment, a joke, that people took way too seriously!

P's Mama said...I think we all know it was meant as a joke, albeit not a funny one, but ewwww... that's just wrong.

I knew it was going to be taken out of context and made to sound worse than it was. At least he isn't one of those guys who pretends that his daughter isn't a grown, attractive, and yes, sexy woman. I think he's a bit of a whoremonger but I think that he is very proud of how his children have turned out - both physically and intellectually.

Popular Blogs said...I also don't think that he meant anything by his comment, but when you are in the public eye as much as Donald Trump is then you have to choose your words very carefully otherwise that can be taken out of context
