Donald Trump has been dogged by wild allegations about his receiving a “golden shower” from sex workers in Russia ever since the aftermath of the 2016 election, the rumour refusing to go away in part because he keeps bringing it up.

He last revisited the sordid subject at an Iowa rally on Saturday 18 November.

Speaking in Fort Dodge, the former president brought up the mostly-debunked 2016 dossier in which ex-British spy Christopher Steele alleged that Mr Trump had paid sex workers to urinate on him in a Moscow hotel.

The Republican gave a rambling retelling of his conversation with his wife Melania after the claims first emerged.

“‘He was with four hookers’ — you think that was good that night to go up and tell my wife? ‘It’s not true darling, I love you very much, it’s not true,’” Mr Trump said.

"Actually, that one she didn’t believe because she said, ‘He’s a germaphobe, he’s not into that, you know. He’s not into golden showers as they say’.”

This was hardly the first time Mr Trump has disputed the contents of the Steele dossier, which was funded by Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

He gave similar remarks about Melania’s response in a speech last November, saying she had told him: “I know that’s not your thing.”
