Video unearthed Thursday on social media threw cold water on President Trump's claim late Wednesday that he has "never" used the word "retarded" to refer to anyone.

Old footage of the president appearing on "The Howard Stern Show" unearthed by a Washington Post reporter on Twitter includes audio of Trump using the word to refer to a business reporter who at the time had apparently written about Trump's financial arrangements.

“I know I was criticized in one magazine where the writer was retarded. He said, ‘Donald Trump put up $7 million, they put up $193 million, and they are 50/50 partners. Why isn’t Donald Trump putting up more money?’ And you know it is supposed to be because I am smart,” Trump tells Stern in the clip, who can be heard laughing as the president uses the term.

"I have a golf pro who's mentally retard ― I mean he's like really not a smart guy."
