Trump at seventeen. George Herbert Walker Bush at seventeen.

1. Great contrast

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. The difference is like night and day.

3. Didn't know he was a southpaw. n/t

4. In that photo, GHW Bush was either 19 or 20

GHW Bush enlisted in the US navy on his 18th birthday.

I would link to the Wikipedia page with the relevant infomation, but it appears to have just been hacked.

6. Poetic license.

5. Nothings changed for drumpf except the addition of 100 lbs of blubber and ugly.

He's still a smug arrogant jerk who cares about nobody but himself, just like it shows in the picture.

7. Ugh

Looks like Trump has had “resting smirk face” for his entire life. It’s the same look that Don Jr. always has. The look that makes you want to slap him upside the head.

9. ...with a 2 x 4.

8. K and r.

10. To be fair, GHWB was 19 or 20, so we should look at Trump's

achievements at that age. Let's see:

1. Paid for an girl's abortion for the first time.
2. First stiffed someone for a debt.
3. Borrowed money to get out of a jam (See #1).

I think that is equivalent, right?

15. 4. Punched a teacher

Can't forget that one.

[MineralMan]

16. He was way younger when he did that.

I'm trying to compare apples with apples here. GHWB was flying military planes. Trump was beginning his grifting career.

11. Hey, now! Donald got a medal... for neatness and order.

Hey, now! Donald got a medal... for neatness and order.

12. Actually, Donald did get a Purple Heart...

Actually, Donald did get a Purple Heart...

13. that ain't no discus! that's a bowling trophy...... and it's probably someone else's

[Marie Marie]

14. I didn't know that they were giving out "participation" trophies

when Trump was a kid.

[fleur-de-lisa]

17. Hitler's Youth

That’s what I’m reminded of when I see that photo of Dump.
