Former President Donald Trump has been often labeled ‘weird.’ Well, the 78-year-old was slapped with the label on national television back in 2006, when he admitted on The View that he lustfully fantasized about his 16-year-old daughter, Ivanka Trump.
“She does have a very nice figure,” Trump said with his teenage daughter sitting right at his side, via Politico Magazine. “If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.”
To which one of the hosts said, “Stop it, you’re so weird!”

Donald Trump recently declared late on Friday that he was dropping out of an ABC News debate scheduled for Sept. 10 and presented a counterproposal to Vice President Kamala Harris, his presumptive opponent, to face off on Fox News six days earlier.
It has been noted that the change, which Trump announced on his social media platform, Truth Social, raised objections from the Harris campaign and appeared to throw a potential showdown between the rivals into question.
It also comes as Harris has made gains in national polling and appears to present a much stronger challenge to Trump on the debate stage than President Biden, who struggled to articulate a clear message in his faltering debate performance in June. Trump and his campaign also seem to be grappling with how to run against Harris after preparing for a race against Biden.
