DONALD Trump met one of his youngest fans at a raucous rally last night in the form of an adorable two-year-old Donald-impersonator.
While speaking at a campaign event in Pennsylvania, the Republican Presidential candidate noticed the 'mini-me' toddler in the crowd wearing a suit, complete with red power tie, and a distinctive flowing wig.
The firebrand politician, 70, picked the little boy up and carried him over to the microphone.
The audience in the giant hockey arena started to whoop with joy when they spotted the tiny Trump fan - who was also sporting a huge VOTE badge of the lapel of his jacket.
Holding him aloft, the property magnate started to work the crowd asking the child a series of questions.
He said: “What's your name?”
The lad replied: “Name.”
Trump continued: “Now, he's supposed to look like Donald Trump, but he's actually much too good looking. You are really handsome.”
He then asked: “Are you having a good time tonight?”
To which the boy replied: “Night.”
Spotting the child’s pattern of repeating the last word of each question, the billionaire showman finished off the stunt in spectacular fashion.
He asked the kid: “Where's your daddy, and your mommy, right? Do you want to go back to them, or do you want to stay with Donald Trump?”
The boy responded: “'Trump.”
The intensity of the roar from the audience was more akin to a sporting event than a political rally.
Fans of the former Apprentice host were reportedly lining up to take selfies with the little lad after the event was finished.
But Trump has not always handled these kinds of opportunities well, having thrown a baby out of a rally in August.
While speaking to an audience in Virginia, the unconventional politician told a crying child’s mother that she didn’t have to leave the room.
However, less than two minutes later, the New York tycoon said: “Actually I was only kidding, you can get the baby out of here.
"I think she really believed me that I love having a baby crying while I'm speaking.”
Trump is still reeling from the emergence of a 2005 video recording in which he was heard making lewd comments about women.
The Republican nominee has called the remarks “locker room talk."
He said: “I'm not proud of it. I apologised to my family. I apologised to the American people."
During Sunday's second Presidential debate, the White House candidate accused former US president Bill Clinton of being “abusive to women."
He also said his Democrat rival Hillary Clinton should be “ashamed” of her behaviour towards her husband’s accusers.
