Yes, the suit is laughable, but the purpose of posting it in political threads is not laughter. This photo is example 1734 of President Trump’s disdain for planning. A normal person would say, “if I am meeting a world leader for a state dinner and it has been more than a decade since I’ve worn white tie, then I should try on my clothes a week before to make sure everything fits. It will take only a couple of minutes and I can even do it while I am watching TV.”

It's hard to say if this is bad planning or deliberate choice. None of Trump's suits fit that well. You can do better getting an off the rack cheap suit at a department store. It's pretty clear a lot of his bizarre mannerisms are deliberate choice, like his stupidly long ties or veering forward as he stands. I am assuming his giant, boxy suits are of a similar vein.
Factor in his silly handshake games, where he tries to surprise other men by yanking them off balance during a friendly hand shake, you start to see what a petty mindset is driving these decisions. Trump is still subscribing to "power tie" mentality of the 80's, where inconsequential details are somehow avenues for asserting dominance. He's a petty man down to the core, and everything about him, including his wardrobe and mannerisms, signal it. Just a normal family, standing in the normal way. ![]()

I think that "The Donald" found out that Melania's favorite vibrator was the black one with "Barrack" written on it.

I think the forward tilt may be an optical illusion caused by the size of his yuge ass. If it really is a tilt, then it may be a subconscious invitation to kiss his yuge ass.
But seriously, I think it's because he's trying to puff up his chest to look manly and his yuge ass needs to shift backwards to maintain balance. |

I thought it was established knowledge that he uses insoles to make himself look bigger.

What if Obama called inconvenient parts of the US Constitution "phony"?

I wonder what the GOP reaction would be if a Democratic has just done Trump incredible act of appeasement to Putin and Erdogan this morning.

The bump stock ban. If Obama had done that I would see screaming like nothing else. But since Trump did it, I hear stuff like;
Bump stocks aren't guns. No one needs a bump stock. What do you want a bump stock for? No one needs a machine gun. Trump didn't ban them, the ATF did. The ATF went rogue. Trump isn't perfect. When I tell them that they're using the same anti-gun rhetoric as Sarah Brady, they lose their ****. Ranb |
