Donald Trump Jr. has caused an uproar after calling his teenage daughter Kai ‘sexy’.
The former First Son made the comments while he and Kai, 17, were getting ready for the Republican National Convention earlier this week.
In a clip posted on his TikTok page, Don Jr. can be seen in a makeup chair next to his daughter.
‘Kai what do you think?’ He asks while panning the camera to show her giving a wave. ‘Getting makeup make me look sexy like you?’
Kai flashes a small smile and replies: ‘I think you look very beautiful.’
‘Thank you Kai, I’m glad you think I look very beautiful’ Don Jr. responds, before breaking into a huge grin.
‘I don’t do this very often, but in HD you better do it,’ he adds as a makeup artist continues finishing up his look.
‘I’m just excited for Kai’s first speech where she chose a very large venue to get out there. She’s going to crush it – I love you Kai.’
His daughter responds that she loves him too as a makeup artist applies her lipstick.
But the clip, which has been viewed 7.8 million times since it was posted on Thursday, has prompted backlash.
‘So actually we don’t wanna be calling our daughters sexy hope this helps,’ one person wrote.
‘That sounds kind of suspicious,’ another added.
‘I’m a trump supporter, but dang I had to replay this several times to convince myself this doesn’t sound wrong, and I’m still not convinced,’ one person said.
