Video has emerged showing Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump making a crude joke about dating a 10-year-old in the future.
CBS News obtained and aired footage of Trump's remarks to the girl, which happened back in 1992 during an appearance on an Entertainment Tonight Christmas special.
In the clip, a then-46-year-old Trump chats with a reportedly 10-year-old girl on an escalator, later turning to the camera and saying, "I am going to be dating her in 10 years. Can you believe it?”
The comments are painfully unsurprising considering Trump's previous comments about his own daughter, Ivanka, whom he has said he would have dated had he not been her father. (At the time the CBS footage was taken, Ivanka would have also been 10 years old.)
Trump also once infamously told Howard Stern that he was taken aback by a 12-year-old Paris Hilton.
“I’ve known Paris Hilton from the time she’s 12, her parents are friends of mine, and the first time I saw her, she walked into the room and I said, ‘Who the hell is that?’” Trump said, according to The Huffington Post.
The footage comes on the heels of story in The Washington Post that published previously unaired footage of Trump making lewd comments about women, including the phrase "grab her by the p*ussy." And just yesterday, The New York Times published a story about two women accusing the GOP candidate of sexual assault.
In a rally in Florida on Thursday, Trump vehemently denied all accusations of assault. And during a debate with Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton on Sunday, Trump brushed off his Access Tonight comments as "locker room talk."
