Donald Trump has once again creeped out the Internet, this time with a “so inappropriate” embrace of his daughter Ivanka.

The 34-year-old businesswoman and former model — Trump’s daughter with his Czech-born first wife Ivana — delivered a speech a the Republican National Convention at Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena on Thursday night.

The questionable touching occurred when the Republican nominee for November’s presidential election greeted his daughter on stage.

After a collective double take, a memorable GIF was posted online, showing Trump appearing to touch Ivanka’s “upper butt” as [one tweeter](https://twitter.com/tauycreek/status/756325374867439616 "undefined") put it.

“Vomit vomit vomit,” [tweeted](https://twitter.com/pazonada/status/756316732244029441 "undefined") one person.

It’s not the first time Trump’s relationship with his daughter has disturbed people.

In a [joint talk show appearance](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DP7yf8-Lk80 "undefined") in 2006, he said Ivanka Trump had a “very nice figure” during a discussion of whether she should pose for _Playboy_ magazine. “I’ve said that if Ivanka wasn’t my daughter,” said the man now running for president, “perhaps I’d be dating her.”
