The kiss was originally reported by NBC in 2016, but gains new significance with the publication of the Trump-Epstein video
Photo: NBC Attempting to dismiss his social connections to Jeffrey Epstein last week, President Trump said that he “wasn’t a fan” of the financier and that he “knew him like everybody in Palm Beach knew him.” But a video published by NBC News on Wednesday of the pair appearing to comment on women’s bodies at Mar-a-Lago in 1992 appears to make this yet another example of the president denying the existence of an occasion that was recorded on tape.
The video, which shows Trump grabbing women in a manner consistent with his own description on the Access Hollywood tape, came about because Trump non-consensually kissed NBC anchor Faith Daniels on the lips in public. As the Washington Post explains: The footage was taken for a feature on Trump that aired on the NBC talk show “A Closer Look” [in November 1992]. On the segment, host Faith Daniels described Trump’s agreeing to come on the show after he kissed the news anchor on the lips in front of photographers at a charity dinner in New York while her husband’s back was turned …“You kissed me on the lips in front of the paparazzi, and I said, ‘That’ll cost you. I’m booking you on the show,’ ” Daniels said to Trump.
In his 1992 appearance on A Closer Look, Daniels also questions the recently divorced Trump on how he would explain the party in which he was seen groping NFL cheerleaders to his oldest son, Donald Trump Jr. “He’s 14, and, uh, he could really understand that one,” Trump responded. He added, in one of his greatest appraisals of Trump Jr. to date: “No, that one’s alright.”
