“‘You remind me of Ivanka’ — right before sex” Donald Trump’s Controversial Remarks About Daughter Ivanka Resurface, Sparking Outrage
During a segment on The Wendy Williams Show in February 2013, Donald Trump made a controversial remark about sharing “sex” as a common interest with his daughter, Ivanka Trump. The moment unfolded during a playful Q&A game when Wendy Williams asked Ivanka, “What’s the favorite thing you have in common with your father?” Ivanka responded with “Either real estate or golf.” However, her father’s response took a surprising turn as he added, “Well, I was going to say sex, but I can’t relate that to her”, as per US Weekly‘s report,
The resurfaced video clip has since gone viral, eliciting strong reactions from social media users. One individual shared the video on X (formerly known as Twitter) and commented, “Shortly before he raw-dogged Stormy Daniels, Donald Trump told her she reminded him of Ivanka. Here’s the cringeworthy moment when Pumpkin McPornhumper said the favorite thing he had in common with his daughter was ‘sex.’ Disgusting pig.”
Another user criticized Trump as well, writing, “As a father of grown-up daughters, this is just so utterly gross.” He continued, “Coupled with all the other creepy things he has said about Ivanka, I just will never understand the blind devotion by so many outspoken ‘Christian’ supporters. Not to mention today’s testimony in court!”
A third individual chimed in, “That he goes straight to sex when speaking of his daughter should tell everyone how unfit he is to lead a cult, much less the USA.” A fourth commenter added, “How the f-ck is that even funny? Why are people laughing about something so perverted? Even his daughter laughed. My daughter would have slapped my face and probably never spoken to me again.”
Trump’s suggestive comment on The Wendy Williams Show was not an isolated incident. Over the years, he has made several controversial remarks about his daughter. In 2004, during a conversation with Howard Stern, he agreed when Stern referred to Ivanka as a “piece of ass.” On Stern’s show, Trump also said, “You know who’s one of the great beauties of the world, according to everybody. And I helped create her. Ivanka. My daughter, Ivanka. She’s six feet tall, she’s got the best body.”
Further controversy arose during Trump’s appearance on The View in March 2006 while promoting The Apprentice. When asked how he would feel if Ivanka appeared on the cover of Playboy, Trump responded that it would depend on the content of the magazine. According to The Hollywood Reporter, he added, “Although she does have a very nice figure. I’ve said that if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps, I would be dating her.”
In the clip from The Wendy Williams Show, Trump also expressed support for then-First Lady Michelle Obama and commented on her hairstyle. According to the Daily Mail, he disapproved of her bangs, saying, “I think she’s a wonderful woman and a beautiful woman, I like her hair better the other way. She’d look great both ways.”
The resurfaced clip, along with Trump’s past remarks, has reignited criticism over his behavior and statements about his daughter. Many see these comments as crossing the line and further demonstrating his unfitness for leadership, while others question why his daughter and supporters remain unfazed. Regardless, the public’s reaction to these incidents continues to underline Trump’s divisive presence in American politics and culture.
