The president’s team is trying to stomp out coverage of his prior comments about young girls amid fallout regarding his alleged ties to pedophilic sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Steven Cheung, Trump’s communications director, torched The Daily Beast for dredging up remarks that Donald Trump made during an interview with Howard Stern in 2006, when he told the radio show host that the best part about being Donald Trump was that he could get “all the girls” he wanted—if he wasn’t married to his wife.


But then Trump got into a questionable back-and-forth with the show’s co-host, Robin Quivers, who asked the real estate mogul: “Do you have an age limit?”

“No, no, I have no age—,” Trump started, before backtracking. “I mean, I have an age—I don’t want to be like Congressman Foley, with, you know, 12-year-olds.”

Republican from Florida of course.

Here he is sitting in the exclusive seats during Trump's rally in Ft. Lauderdale Florida https://abcnews.go.com/US/disgraced-us-rep-mark-foley-spotted-trump-rally/story?id=41290454

"After the rally Foley confirmed to MSNBC his support of Trump's presidential bid and said that the two have a longstanding relationship. "He's been a friend of mine for 30 years and one of my biggest contributors," Foley said."
