Donald Trump has long been a fan of television, both watching and being on it. Over the years, his TV appearances have ranged from memorable to downright cringe-worthy. Let's take a look at some of those moments.

In 2005, Trump showed up at the Emmys in an unexpected outfit. He joined Megan Mullally on stage to sing the theme song from Green Acres, dressed in a straw hat, white t-shirt, and denim overalls. Years later, he even tweeted the performance to promote a Farm Bill.

One awkward moment came on The View. While discussing his daughter Ivanka, Trump made a remark about possibly dating her if she weren't his daughter. He also said he'd be disappointed if she posed for Playboy, but only if she wasn't in it.

Trump made headlines for inappropriate comments during his time on The Apprentice. One notorious incident involved him boasting to Billy Bush about his ability to touch women without consent. This conversation came back to haunt him during his presidency.

In a lighter moment, Trump parodied Drake's Hotline Bling on Saturday Night Live. He appeared as a tax guy with dance moves to rival the rapper. However, his relationship with the show soured after he lost the 2020 election.

Trump's rallies also had their share of cringe moments. He once danced to YMCA, a song known as a gay anthem. His moves were awkward and included pursing his lips and punching the air.

In a show of patriotism, Trump hugged and kissed an American flag at a rally. This act was widely criticized and even mocked by comedian Stephen Colbert.

These moments, both humorous and controversial, have left lasting impressions on viewers.
