President Donald Trump gushed over a young female waitress during a rambling rally speech about his "no tax on tips" policy in Las Vegas.

Trump attributes the inspiration for his economic initiative directly to a conversation he had with said waitress while dining at a restaurant in Sin City.

“I was having dinner. A beautiful waitress came over. I'm not allowed to say that. I'll say it anyway. She was beautiful. Good steak, by the way. So, we're eating. This beautiful young lady walks over. I say, 'How you doing? Everything good?’” the POTUS recalled.

Donald Trump Talked Tax on Tips With Waitress

Donald Trump raved over the waitress' looks even though he knew he would be criticized for doing so.

According to Trump's recount of the interaction, the waitress approached his table and explained how government taxation on tips was significantly hurting her livelihood.

He found the suggestion to eliminate taxes on tips highly compelling and immediately announced it as a major pillar of his platform.

Critics blast the initiative as misleading because tips are only exempt from federal income tax. Workers must still pay Social Security and Medicare (FICA) taxes on 100 percent of their reported tips.

During various retellings of the anecdote at live events, Trump has paired the policy explanation with comments on the waitress' appearance.

The president was ridiculed for bragging about his steak dinner amid inflation.

He frequently inserts comedic or satirical asides regarding modern political correctness, joking politicians are "not allowed" to compliment a woman's beauty in the current social climate without risking their political careers.

While the president’s “creepy” admiration of young, beautiful women is nothing new, critics seized on his pricey meal, with one saying, “Folks are being told to eat liver and cheap cuts of meat by his HHS secretary but he's bragging about eating a good steak and predatory behavior on a young woman.”

“Trump has told variations of this same waitress story for over a year, always circling back to calling her 'beautiful' while insisting he’s 'not allowed' to say it," noted another. "It’s the same anecdote he links to the ‘no tax on tips’ idea. The steak and the compliment are the consistent framing."

Some critics accused Donald Trump of making up the story.

Others said Trump is once again fantasizing, referencing alter egos allegedly attributed to the POTUS from his days in New York City when he’d call tabloids pretending to be other people to brag about himself.

“One of Trump's make-believe characters, like the obese billionaire friend, the admiral who loved his catapult idea, the factory worker, the cop, the unidentified foreign leader, the store owner, John Barron, John Miller — it's uncanny how all of them love Trump,” noted one.
