MORE pedophilia! Trump tells TWO FOURTEEN YEAR OLD GIRLS "in a couple of years I’ll be dating you"

Donald Trump reportedly told two 14-year-old girls in 1992 that he would be dating one of them “in a couple of years.”

A news brief published in the Chicago Tribune at the time said the girls were part of a youth choir singing outside the Plaza Hotel in New York City when Trump approached them and asked their ages.

“Wow,” Trump replied after being told they were 14, according to the account, which resurfaced this week. “Just think ― in a couple of years I’ll be dating you.”

The crack was similar to one the GOP presidential nominee made about a 10-year-old in a recently resurfaced tape, also from 1992. In that clip, recorded for an “Entertainment Tonight” Christmas special, the then-46-year-old Trump greeted the girl on an escalator at Trump Tower. Turning to the camera, he said: “I am going to be dating her in 10 years. Can you believe it?”

He may be saying those things in jest, kind of like when someone who is not a disgusting pig might say, "You are going to be a heart breaker when you grow up" or something in that vein.

The difference is that Trump is a narcissist who only sees women/girls as sexual objects. I think that there is way more to this behavior than we understand right now based on the patterns of behavior. The women thing is disgusting, but the girls thing is completely beyond the pale. Viewing women solely as sex objects is wrong because it demeans women. We all have sexual urges and men (and I am sure women) are visual and enjoy seeing attractive people. Men tend to be more socialized to compartmentalize sex from connection and may separate the behavior of looking at scantily clad women from say, how they relate to their mothers, sisters, wives, etc... This is where Trump again, is very different.

He commented on his 1 year old daughter having his then wife Marla Maples' legs, and then went on to motion with his hands, waiting to see if she developed big breasts. What halfway decent father would even consider describing their daughter in sexual terms. He groped Ivanka on stage at the RNC. He has taken very sexual looking pictures with Ivanka and said he'd "date" her if he wasn't married ... or, you know, her father.

I can (I know I am biased) say that I think my 6 year old daughter will become a beautiful woman when she grows up, but to think of her in sexual terms would be horrifically disgusting.

Trump doesn't see anything wrong with his comments because he doesn't see women/girls in any other way except as sex objects. He cannot even differentiate between women/girls that are his biological offspring and other women. There is something seriously wrong with the man. He is not fit to do anything in life let alone, be president.
