Don't be sad.

In the interview he is talking about walking in on the dressing rooms of the pageants he owned, one of which being the Miss Teen USA pageant.

The article that you yourself linked to quotes young girls from that teen pageant describing that very behavior:

Four women who competed in the 1997 Miss Teen USA beauty pageant said Donald Trump walked into the dressing room while contestants — some as young as 15 — were changing.

"I remember putting on my dress really quick because I was like, ‘Oh my god, there’s a man in here,’ " said Mariah Billado, the former Miss Vermont Teen USA.

Trump, she recalled, said something like, "Don’t worry, ladies, I’ve seen it all before."

Three other women, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of getting engulfed in a media firestorm, also remembered Trump entering the dressing room while girls were changing. Two of them said the girls rushed to cover their bodies, with one calling it "shocking" and "creepy." The third said she was clothed and introduced herself to Trump.


If you want to be pedantic about which pageant and when, have fun... but please don't be sad if I don't give a fuck about giving the pedo rapist the benefit of the doubt.
