Your support makes all the difference.A new video has emerged relating to Donald Trump's attitude towards women, showing his reaction to being described as a "sexual predator".
The footage is again from The Howard Stern show, the scene of many historic Trump indiscretions, and features the Republican candidate sat in the studio alongside his then-25-year-old daughter Ivanka Trump.
In the video, believed to be from 2006, Stern begins asking the reality TV star a question, saying: "Donald seriously, you know all about sexual predators and things like that..."
A woman's voice interjects from off camera, saying: "... You are one!"
Here is how he responds:
Other videos from Mr Trump's appearances on the show have resurfaced since he announced he would be running for the presidency.
They include repeated comments about the body and appearance of Ivanka Trump, at one point telling Stern it is OK to describe her as "a piece of ass".
It was also on Stern's show that Mr Trump described former Miss Universe Alicia Machado as an "eating machine".
And it was speaking to the shock jock on the anniversary of 9/11 in 2002 that Mr Trump infamously supported going to war in Iraq - something he has consistently denied - saying: "Yeah, I guess so."
In another Stern video tweeted on Thursday night, Mr Trump can be heard describing the intricacies of pre-nuptial legal agreements before his third marriage, to the supermodel Melania Knauss (now Trump).
Boasting of how "in the history of the world, nobody has gotten more beautiful women than I have", Mr Trump describes the women he has slept with in the past as his "victims".
It comes as the New York Times published a legal letter daring Mr Trump to sue over stories about his alleged sexual aggression towards women. In it, Times lawyer and 1st Amendment expert David McCraw suggests it would be impossible for the paper to have defamed Mr Trump with the article, given "the reputation that Mr Trump, through his own words and actions, has already created for himself".
