WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump interrupted a telephone conversation with Ireland's prime minister to compliment an Irish journalist on her "nice smile."

Caitriona Perry is a Washington correspondent and U.S. bureau chief for RTE News-Ireland. She was in the Oval Office with other journalists to document the Tuesday call.

Trump was congratulating Leo Varadkar on becoming prime minister, and mentioned that Irish reporters were among those listening.


Trump then pointed to Perry, called her over to his desk and asked where she was from.

1. Lucky for her she stayed at arm's length. Seriously, when I saw that I thought it was creepy

2. I hope she stayed beyond pussy-grabbing range

What an insult to both the Irish prime minister and the reporter, who was just trying to be doing her job professionally.

I never thought I'd say it, but I miss Bush (except for the part about wanting to kill all brown-skinned people, of course).

3. Didn't look to me like he was looking at her SMILE!

Look at where his eyes are headed above. A split second after this, his gaze "landed."

In addition to being ignorant, incurious and unreflective, our president is an ogler.

Old habits die hard.

4. Ick. What a lech.

Disgusting man. He simply cannot keep from thinking about his little pee pee.

5. She smiled at him

That was enough of a come on for him.
