Donald Trump Tries to Kiss Little Girl at a Rally
At a rally in Wisconsin on Monday, Donald Trump marveled over the beauty of a little girl in the audience and then invited her on stage. "By the way, that is the most beautiful little girl," Trump said. "Hi Honey. You want to come see me?"
He called to her: "Bring her, so beautiful!"
After the girl came on stage, Trump picked her up, asked her to introduce herself, and then proceeded to kiss her. In the full video, Trump kisses her once and when he tries to do it again, she turns away.
This little girl has no time for Donald Trump. @ToddDracula https://t.co/0j8Huv3xhC

Afterward, Trump brought up another child, a boy, and kissed him on the cheek as well. However, Trump’s fawning insistence on appearing with the girl and kissing her made many extremely uncomfortable. Trump has made crude comments objectifying little girls. He once talked about the breasts his infant daughter would have, and said of a 10-year-old girl, "I’m going to be dating her in 10 years." Trump has also boasted about committing sexual assault and now faces a series of sexual assault allegations from women.
Given what we know about Trump, I don't find the gif of the little girl pulling away from his kiss funny. Like, at all.

Would be interested to see an interview with her parents. Why, given the recent news, was she put in that position? https://t.co/IA2ozItPtK

Pro tip: if your campaign is being destroyed over sexual assault rumors, don't force a little girl to kiss you.

About the gross video of Trump trying to kiss a little girl against her will: I don't even try to hug my daughter when she's not feeling it.

I'll admit, I wasn't ready to see Trump trying to kiss a little black girl on the mouth. Who the hell does that to someone else's child?
