Get off President Trump’s back!

That’s what actress Lindsay Lohan – about whose talent as a sexual partner Trump once speculated – wants the president’s critics to do.

Lohan, whose career as a popular child actress careened through well-publicized twists and turns, responded with her spirited defense after Trump was criticized for signaling his willingness to help Charlie Gard, a baby in Britain whose parents are unable to afford to keep him on life support.

That started a bit of a back-and-forth on Twitter.

On Wednesday Rollingstone.com posted a story that recounted Trump’s assessment of Lohan back in 2004. Trump, appearing on “The Howard Stern Show,” called Lohan “deeply troubled” then went into a base assessment of her.

“I think she’s hot,” Stern replied, according to the rollingstone.com article, to which Trump mused, “There’s something there, right? But you have to like freckles. I’ve seen a, you know, close up of her chest and a lot of freckles. Are you into freckles?”

Stern later asked Trump if he could imagine “having sex” with Lohan.

“She’s probably deeply troubled and therefore great in bed,” Trump is quoted as saying. “How come the deeply troubled women, you know, deeply, deeply troubled, they’re always the best in bed?”

Seems like all is forgiven.
