You want nasty?

In an interview on Nov. 4, 1997, not even two months after the princess was killed in a car crash, Trump bragged that he could’ve slept with her — but would have made her take a medical exam first.
Trump claimed that she was attracted to him and, when asked if he thought he could have “nailed” her, he said he “could have.”
Stern asked: “Why do people think it’s egotistical of you to say you could’ve gotten Lady Di? You could’ve gotten her, right? You could’ve nailed her.”
Trump responded: “I think I could have,” adding, “She was actually really beautiful. I thought she was supermodel beautiful.”
He continued, “She had times when she didn’t look great and she had times when she looked better than anyone in the world. But she had the height, she had magnificent skin, she was a great beauty.”
Trump also claimed that if Princess Diana had “been dating him” instead of Dodi Fayed, she wouldn’t have died in the fatal crash.
He shared, “I know that tunnel in Paris. It’s got, like, a 30-mile limit. If you look at this tunnel — and I really know that tunnel well, I’ve been through that tunnel many times — you can’t go more than like 30, 40 miles.”
Princess Di was like 90% of women when it comes to Trump:
Princess Diana didn’t find Trump all that charming, it turns out, despite his boastful claims that he believed he could have had sex with her.
Trump reportedly pursued Diana when her marriage broke up, with broadcaster Selina Scott sharing in the Sunday Times in 2015 that he borderline was “stalking her” because he thought he “had a shot” at winning her over.
Scott wrote: ‘He bombarded Diana at Kensington Palace with massive bouquets, each worth hundreds of pounds.” She described, “They were accompanied by handwritten notes expressing sympathy, his great regard for her and the suggestion that they get together.”
She added: “Trump clearly saw Diana as the ultimate trophy wife. As the roses and orchids piled up at her apartment she became increasingly concerned about what she should do. It had begun to feel as if Trump was stalking her.”
Scott noted that she became close to Diana after meeting her in the 1980s and Diana had said of Trump, ‘“What am I going to do? He gives me the creeps.”’
Of course he did.
Royal biographer Christopher Anderson told The Daily Beast in 2017 that, in light of the comments Trump made about Princess Diana, the Royals aren’t impressed, sharing: “When it comes to the younger royals, especially given his crude comments about Diana after her death, it is hard to imagine that Charles, William, Harry and Kate will view Trump as anything but crass and overbearing.”
They would be right. He’s lowlife garbage. That medical test crack is right up there with “grab ’em by the pussy.”
