After moderator Chris Wallace brought up the many women who have accused Donald Trump of inappropriate sexual advances, his response did not get a lot of sympathy from the audience.

Faced yet again with the accusations that came out after the leaked tape of Trump having a very lewd conversation with Billy Bush, Trump said what has been his go-to line.

"No one has more respect for women than me," the Republican nominee said.

And the audience laughed.

Most likely because members of the audience did not exactly believe Trump's words, they were caught in a fit of giggles.

So much so that Wallace had to turn around and ask the audience to be quiet. Like an angry dad saying he would turn this debate around so help him god.

Of course, he didn't get there soon enough and the internet heard the laugh ring out and decided to echo the sentiment.
