is to soil his clothes. Cowards always manage to talk big when it is just talk and they'll always come up with some excuse to run (ass boils, pants shitting, bone spurs, mental instability) when it threatens to go beyond talk.

With his handlers, if they do something he doesn’t like, he yells at them, “you’re Fired!!” all the time...this is from someone that worked with the family when they visited her place of employment...she witnessed the kid being s nasty pain in the ass...courtesy of dad - 100% dad’s fault though.

Melania said: "He is a very strong-minded, very special, smart boy. He is independent and opinionated and knows exactly what he wants. Sometimes I call him little Donald. He is a mixture of us in looks, but his personality is why I call him ‘Little Donald’.”


Great.

This is a guy who's afraid to go to England because the Brits might be mean to him. This is a guy who ducked a fucking bald eagle. No way would he put himself in any danger.

of the time he was at a rally in an airport hanger and a man approached the platform he was standing on giving a speech. When the man attempted to climb on the platform, he ducked and hid behind security or secret service, I am not sure which it was at the time.


Yellow isn't just the shade of his hair, it continues down his back.

It immediately came to mind when he shot off his mouth about rushing a shooter, unarmed. He never knows when to stop; always has to add something provably stupid.

There are two eagles that live near our house and I've seen them fairly up close. Their beaks are large and very sharp and their stillto-like talons are capable of surrounding a small dog.

That famous gif of Trump shying away from the bird is quite funny because he's such an ass. But the truth is, if that happened to me, I'd shy away, too!

Still, Trump is an idiot.

who, on day one, bolted from the limo to be first to the front door of the White House. Meanwhile, beloved wife, Melania, had to fend for herself until the Obamas came to her defense and escorted her out of the limo and to the door. What a pompous ass tRumpolini is! An ill mannered boor describes him perfectly. Anybody who thinks that fraidy cat is gonna look out after anybody except #1 is a fool. Melania must be stuffing money, jewels and property away like mad to put up with the likes of him!!

That would be a tragedy for him. Fuck the kid!

He's preventing a wind gust from revealing his fake hair like what happened the other day. I don't think the pic shows anything other than that.

But he'd never take a bullet for his own kid, much less another kid, or even risk it.

He's placed his children in serious legal jeopardy by having them work full-time for his criminal business ventures. You have to be one special extraordinarily selfish asshole to get your kids involved in your criminal enterprises.
