The ex-president talked about his daughter's breasts and "what it might be like to have sex with her," a former Trump administration official writes in a new book.

Flogging a book so it's hard to know, but there's been other verified quotes about his daughter so this claim is plausible.

Literally none of this is surprising, I can’t see what difference it would make to publish a book about it. Trump’s obvious deficiencies are obvious, and he still has people who think he was somehow good. If unassailable evidence came out that he raped a child, for example, it wouldn’t hurt him politically. The GOP would still be all in on him.

Plus, much of his base are conservative Christians. The church isn't exactly free of guilt when it comes to pedophilia.
