A spokesman for President Donald Trump lost it Monday evening after The Daily Beast resurfaced old comments Trump made about having an "age limit" for women.
The report noted that Trump’s remarks about dating young women have been thrust back into the limelight as questions swirl about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
In 2006, Trump boasted to star radio host Howard Stern he could get "all the girls I want" if he wasn't married to his wife, Melania.
“Do you think you could now be banging 24-year-olds?” Stern asked.
“Oh, absolutely. I have no trouble,” Trump answered. He was 60 at the time. “I have no problem.”
When co-host Robin Quivers asked, "Do you have an age limit?" Trump gave an eyebrow-raising response.
“No, no, I have no age —,” he began to say. “I mean, I have an age — I don’t want to be like Congressman Foley, with, you know, 12-year-olds.”
Former Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL) resigned that year after sending sexually explicit messages to underage boys, including one who was 16.
Steven Cheung, Trump’s communications director who is known for issuing fiery statements, did so again Monday evening.
“The disgusting insinuation by the Daily Beast is beyond the pale and does a great disservice to survivors. The Daily Beast is devoid of morals or compassion, all because they want to play political games," he said.
