Video Shows Donald Trump Joking About Dating A Young Girl When She Gets Older

"I am going to be dating her in 10 years. Can you believe it?"

Donald Trump , his campaign reeling from new allegations he groped women and from the release of an audio clip featuring him bragging about sexual assault, once joked about dating a 10-year-old girl when she’s older, according to footage obtained Wednesday by CBS News .

Trump made the remarks about the child during a 1992 appearance on an “Entertainment Tonight” Christmas special. In the clip, Trump asks an adolescent girl if she was going up an elevator, then tells the camera: “I am going to be dating her in 10 years. Can you believe it?”

He would have been 46 at the time.

The comments echo those Trump has made about his daughter , Ivanka, including his assertions that if she weren’t his daughter he’d “be dating her .”

The Trump camp has been on the defensive and uncharacteristically apologetic (kind of ) after The Washington Post on Friday published a 2005 recording in which Trump bragged about groping women.

“You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful  I just start kissing them,” Trump said to “Access Hollywood’s” Billy Bush. “It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.” 

“And when you’re a star, they let you do it,” Trump continued. “You can do anything.”

Trump has denied he acted on what he calls  “locker room banter ” and apologized. Bush, who egged Trump on, is set to leave the “Today Show” after a fierce public outcry and suspension from NBC .

Despite Trump’s denial, The New York Times on Wednesday published an account from two women who say the business magnate touched them inappropriately . One woman said he kissed her outside an elevator at Trump Tower “directly on the mouth” in 2005. Another said he grabbed her breasts during a flight to New York more than 30 years ago.

“He was like an octopus,” the woman, Jessica Leeds, told the newspaper.

A third woman, Mindy McGillivray, accused Trump of groping her at his Mar-a-Lago resort in 2003, according to an article published by the The Palm Beach Post shortly after the Times article appeared.

Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar , rampant xenophobe , racist , misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S.
