18 Real Things Donald Trump Has Actually Said About Women

Donald Trump claims to cherish women, but his actions and words suggest otherwise.

Fox News Megyn Kelly called him out on his sexist behavior during the GOP debate on August 6, reminding him: You have called women you dont like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals.

Trump laughed off the question, claiming he doesnt have the time for total political correctness . Later, Trump called Kelly a bimbo and said that he didnt recognize the remarks she was referencing.

Well, we recognize them.

Trump has consistently insulted , belittled, sexualized and stereotyped women. He has also taken the time to personally insult individual notable women like Sarah Jessica Parker , Rosie ODonnell , Cher, Bette Midler , and others.

Here are 18 of the most outrageous things Trump has said about women:

That giving your wife "negotiable assets" is a terrible mistake.

Vanity Fair

I would never buy Ivana any decent jewels or pictures. Why give her negotiable assets? Trump is quoted as saying of his then-wife in a 1990 Vanity Fair piece .

That women are essentially aesthetically-pleasing objects.

In his 2006 book Trump 101: The Way to Success, Trump wrote: "Beauty and elegance, whether in a woman, a building, or a work of art, is not just superficial or something pretty to see."

That sexual assault in the military is totally expected.

26,000 unreported sexual assults in the military-only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together?

Because what else could possibly happen when you put men and women together?

That women on "The Apprentice" need to rely on sex appeal.

"It's certainly not groundbreaking news that the early victories by the women on 'The Apprentice' were, to a very large extent, dependent on their sex appeal."-- How To Get Rich, 2004

"You know, it doesn't really matter what [the media] write as long as you've got a young and beautiful piece of ass." -- from an interview with Esquire , 1991

That a woman MUST be hot in order to be a journalist.

"I mean, we could say politically correct that look doesn't matter, but the look obviously matters," Trump said to a female reporter in a clip featured on "Last Week Tonight." "Like you wouldn't have your job if you weren't beautiful."

That pumping breast milk is "disgusting."

When a lawyer facing Trump in 2011 asked for a break to pump breastmilk for her infant daughter, The Donald reacted very poorly. "He got up, his face got red, he shook his finger at me and he screamed, 'You're disgusting, you're disgusting,' and he ran out of there," attorney Elizabeth Beck told CNN . Trump's attorney does not dispute that his client called Beck "disgusting."

That all women hate prenups, because they are gold diggers.

The most difficult aspect of the prenuptial agreement is informing your future wife (or husband): I love you very much, but just in case things dont work out, this is what you will get in the divorce. There are basically three types of women and reactions. One is the good woman who very much loves her future husband, solely for himself, but refuses to sign the agreement on principle. I fully understand this, but the man should take a pass anyway and find someone else. The other is the calculating woman who refuses to sign the prenuptial agreement because she is expecting to take advantage of the poor, unsuspecting sucker shes got in her grasp. There is also the woman who will openly and quickly sign a prenuptial agreement in order to make a quick hit and take the money given to her. --Trump: The Art of the Comeback , 1997

That women have a "great act" going on to trick men.

Women have one of the great acts of all time. The smart ones act very feminine and needy, but inside they are real killers. The person who came up with the expression the weaker sex was either very naive or had to be kidding. I have seen women manipulate men with just a twitch of their eye or perhaps another body part. -- Trump: The Art of the Comeback, 1997

That Hillary would be a bad president because of her husband's actions.

Just... what?

That Angelina Jolie has dated too many guys to be attractive.

[Angelina Jolies] been with so many guys she makes me look like a baby... And, I just dont even find her attractive," he said in an interview with Larry King in 2006.

That Bette Midler's "ugly face and body" are offensive.

While @BetteMidler is an extremely unattractive woman, I refuse to say that because I always insist on being politically correct.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 28, 2012

But don't worry, he's too much of a gentleman to actually say it . Or something.

That Rosie O'Donnell is "crude, rude, obnoxious and dumb."

Along with basically every other insult, ever. Ugh.

That the best line in any movie is this beautiful gem.

My favorite part [of 'Pulp Fiction'] is when Sam has his gun out in the diner and he tells the guy to tell his girlfriend to shut up. Tell that bitch to be cool. Say: 'Bitch be cool.' I love those lines. -- TrumpNation: The Art of Being The Donald, 2005

That a journalist who offended him had an ugly face.

New York Times columnist Gail Collins recalled : "During one down period, I referred to him in print as a 'financially embattled thousandaire' and he sent me a copy of the column with my picture circled and 'The Face of a Dog!' written over it."

That Cher is 'lonely' and 'a loser' because she doesn't support him.

.@cher should spend more time focusing on her family and dying career!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 13, 2012

"Cher is an average talent who's out of touch with reality," he said in a 2012 Fox News interview . "Cher is somewhat of a loser. She's lonely. She's unhappy. She's very miserable."

That women fawn all over him because he is rich and powerful.

"Love him or hate him, Donald Trump is a man who is certain about what he wants and sets out to get it, no holds barred," Trump said about himself one time. "Women find his power almost as much of a turn-on as his money."

That the ladies on "The Apprentice" are all super in to him.

Facebook

"All of the women on 'The Apprentice' flirted with me -- consciously or unconsciously. That's to be expected."-- How To Get Rich, 2004
