WTF? Donald Trump Once Told A Breastfeeding Mom She Was 'Disgusting'

by Madeline Concannon

Just when you thought Donald Trump couldn't be more of a dick, it turns out he called a lawyer “disgusting” for asking to use a breast pump for her newborn baby.

In a 2011 case over a failed real estate project, lawyer Elizabeth Beck was deposing Trump. At the time, she had a 3-month-old daughter and tried to excuse herself for a medical break to pump milk.

Trump was outraged by the request and reportedly yelled she was “disgusting." The New York Times reports neither Trump nor Beck disputes this occurred.

In an interview with CNN on Wednesday, Beck said,

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.

When Trump was also asked to elaborate on the story by CNN, he responded,

She wanted to breast pump in front of me and I may have said that's disgusting. I may have said something else. I thought it was terrible.

Well, Donald Trump, I think you're “terrible.”
