Trump goes off-script at the Board of Peace to describe touching Melania in a way that left the room silent, and it only got weirder

President Donald Trump gave a memorable speech at the first-ever Board of Peace meeting, going off-script with personal remarks about Melania and a past escalator incident that caught everyone off guard. The speech was delivered to dozens of international officials in the US Capitol.

During his address, Trump acknowledged Santiago Peña Palacios, the president of Paraguay, saying, “[He’s a] young, handsome guy. It’s always nice to be young and handsome. Doesn’t mean we have to like you.” He then added, “I don’t like young, handsome men. Women, I like. Men, I don’t have any interest.”
