‘Dr. Oz’ Show Cuts Trump’s Comments About Kissing His Daughter ‘Every Chance’ He Gets
Pattern of Creepy Comments
In his appearance on “Dr. Oz,” Donald Trump revealed the results of his physical exam, but the Manhattan billionaire also revealed that he kisses his daughter Ivanka every chance he gets. But viewers – and voters – won’t ever get to see the creepy comment because the “Dr. Oz” show left those comments on the cutting room floor.Â
NBC News’ Peter Alexander reported Wednesday “that when Ivanka Trump came on stage” Dr. Oz “said, ‘It’s nice to see a dad kiss his daughter.'”
“Trump responded he kisses her every chance he gets.”

Mediaite’s Alex Griswold explains that this “would normally be just an endearing comment from a father, but Trump also has a history of making, uh, interesting comments about Ivanka.
“She’s really something, and what a beauty, that one. If I weren’t happily married and, ya know, her father…†he told GQ last year.
Before that, Trump told the women of The View, “I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.†Even earlier than that, he told Howard Stern, “You know who’s one of the great beauties of the world, according to everybody? And I helped create her. Ivanka. My daughter, Ivanka. She’s 6 feet tall, she’s got the best body.â€
Griswold, along with Raw Story’s David Ferguson, reported Thursday that those “awkward” and “creepy” comments were edited out of Thursday’s airing of Trump’s interview with Dr. Oz.
Raw Story’s Ferguson notes, “there was the creepy buttock-pat Trump did when hugging Ivanka before her speech at the Republican National Convention.”
