Donald and Ivanka Trump Moments That Totally Weird Us Out
It’s obvious that Donald Trump and his daughter are quite close. While that could be all well and fine, disturbing comments Trump has made about Ivanka Trump over the years have made their close relationship a bit unsettling.
From the shocking thing Trump said he has in common with his daughter to the seriously cringe-worthy admission he made in an interview (No. 9), these moments between Trump and Ivanka will totally weird you out.
1. Calling his daughter ‘hot’
Trump has been making creepy comments about his daughter for years. Back when Ivanka was just 16 years old, she’d hosted the 1997 Miss Teen USA pageant.
According to The Independent, Trump turned to Miss Universe and asked her, “Don’t you think my daughter’s hot? She’s hot, right?”
Next: He made one disturbing comment after another.
2. He’d date her if she wasn’t his daughter
During an interview on The View, Trump made more than a few disturbing comments about his daughter. Right off the bat, he willingly engaged in conversation about Ivanka posing for Playboy. After noting, “I don’t think Ivanka would [pose nude] inside the magazine,” he added, “She does have a very nice figure.”
Somehow, it gets more disturbing. He claimed, “If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.”
Next: He didn’t mind Howard Stern calling her this.
3. Agreeing that Ivanka is ‘a piece of ass’
While sitting down on The Howard Stern Show in 2004, Trump was in agreement with the host that Ivanka is “a piece of ass.”
After Trump commented, “My daughter is beautiful, Ivanka,” Stern asked, “By the way, your daughter … Can I say this? A piece of ass.” Trump didn’t hesitate to agree, simply responding, “Yeah.”

4. Discussing Ivanka’s ‘voluptuous’ body
Trump has made disturbing comments about his daughter with Stern on more than one occasion. In 2006, when Trump returned to The Howard Stern Show, they moved their conversation specifically to Ivanka’s breasts.
Stern commented that Ivanka “looks more voluptuous than ever,” and even asked if she’d gotten implants. Rather than shutting down discussion about his daughter’s breasts, he responded that she didn’t get implants.
Trump even added, “She’s actually always been very voluptuous. She’s tall, she’s almost six feet tall and she’s been, she’s an amazing beauty.”

5. This Vanity Fair photoshoot
Trump didn’t even need to say anything for us to get creeped out by this moment. Leave it to the internet to find this disturbing shot from a Vanity Fair photoshoot, taken at Mar-a-Lago. Ivanka was just 15 years old in this photo, making the cringey lap-sitting and face-caressing that much more uncomfortable.
Plus, as social media users pointed out, the statue they’re sitting on just adds to the discomfort of the whole thing. “WHY DOES THIS EXIST?!?,” a Twitter user wrote. “Why are parrots having sex? You weirdos!”
Next: This is Trump’s favorite thing he has in common with Ivanka.
6. ‘Sex’ is Trump’s favorite thing they have in common
During a joint interview on The Wendy Williams Show in 2013, Trump and Ivanka gave very different answers to the same question. Williams asked them what their favorite thing was that they had in common, to which Ivanka replied, “Either real estate or golf.”
Then, Trump made it weird. He claimed, “Well, I was going to say sex, but I can’t relate that to her.” The fact that “sex” even came to his mind makes us cringe, but him saying it out loud made it that much worse. He took the sex talk even further in another interview (No. 9).

7. Ivanka referring to him as ‘daddy’
While delivering a speech in North Dakota on tax reform in 2017, Trump shared a conversation he’d had earlier with Ivanka. “[Ivanka] wanted to make the trip. She said, ‘Dad, can I go with you?’ She said actually, ‘Daddy, can I go with you?’ I like that, right?” Trump recalled.
Sure, children can call their father “daddy” without it being scandalous. However, when you’re a woman in your mid-30s and you consider all the controversial moments Ivanka has had with her father, the term “daddy” becomes pretty cringe-worthy.
