June 14th, 1946 is Donald Trump's birthday. That means Trump has been around for 70 years. In celebration of that day, here are 70 things Donald Trump has said in his lifetime:
1. "Number one, I have great respect for women. I was the one that really broke the glass ceiling on behalf of women, more than anybody in the construction industry."
2. “An ‘extremely credible source’ has called my office and told me that Barack Obama’s birth certificate is a fraud."
3. “Our great African-American President hasn’t exactly had a positive impact on the thugs who are so happily and openly destroying Baltimore.”
4. “Bush was a disaster for the country as well as for the Republican Party. Then he asked me about Barack Obama. I told him that Barack will need to be a great president because we’re in serious trouble as a country. It hasn’t been this way since 1929. So he doesn’t have much choice—he will simply have to be great, which he has a very good chance of being. What he has done is amazing. The fact that he accomplished what he has—in one year and against great odds—is truly phenomenal.”
6. "The other thing with the terrorists is you have to take out their families, when you get these terrorists, you have to take out their families."
7. “Beautiful, famous, successful, married – I’ve had them all, secretly, the world’s biggest names, but unlike Geraldo I don’t talk about it.”
8. "We can't continue to allow China to rape our country."
9. “All of the women on The Apprentice flirted with me – consciously or unconsciously. That’s to be expected.”
10. “[It’s] a wonderful thing for the woman, it’s a wonderful thing for the husband, it’s certainly an inconvenience for a business."...in reference to an employee's pregnancy.

12. “I identify more as a Democrat.”
13. "All of the men, we're petrified to speak to women anymore. We may raise our voice. You know what? The women get it better than we do, folks. They get it better than we do.

...in response to an opposing lawyer in a court case, when she asked for a medical break to pump breast milk for her three-month-old daughter.
15. "Putting a wife to work is a very dangerous thing."
16. "I wonder if President Obama would have attended the funeral of Justice Scalia if it were held in a Mosque? Very sad that he did not go."
17. "I mean, look at Libya. Look at Iraq. Iraq used to be no terrorists. He (Hussein) would kill the terrorists immediately, which is like now it's the Harvard of terrorism. If you look at Iraq from years ago, I'm not saying he was a nice guy, he was a horrible guy, but it was a lot better than it is right now. Right now, Iraq is a training ground for terrorists. Right now Libya, nobody even knows Libya, frankly there is no Iraq and there is no Libya. It's all broken up. They have no control. Nobody knows what's going on."
18. "They're going to build a plant and illegals are going drive those cars right over the border. And they'll probably end up stealing the cars."

26. “The beauty of me is that I’m very rich.”

"The most difficult aspect of the prenuptial agreement is informing your future wife (or husband): I love you very much, but just in case things don’t work out, this is what you will get in the divorce. There are basically three types of women and reactions. One is the good woman who very much loves her future husband, solely for himself, but refuses to sign the agreement on principle. I fully understand this, but the man should take a pass anyway and find someone else. The other is the calculating woman who refuses to sign the prenuptial agreement because she is expecting to take advantage of the poor, unsuspecting sucker she’s got in her grasp.
