OMG, it's the "people coming up to him crying" thing again.

"Tough, strong men and women. Sir, you've given our life back to us."

1. And we wonder how Hitler rose to power.

[jcgoldie]

2. To be fair

A lot of people have been crying throughout his term in office...

[Ohiogal]

3. What is this creepy and weird preoccupation

with him and “people crying”?

He is so repulsive.

[Salviati]

4. And the crying people calling him "Sir"

I knew that would be there before I even saw his baloney fabrication.

[MyOwnPeace]

5. What he should have said.......

"Many are crying because of what I have done."

"Sir, do you realize how screwed-up you are?"

"Many are saying, 'How much longer do we have to put up with him?"

AND, what WE are all thinking: "When will God save the people?"

[Grasswire2]

13. I haven't heard that for many years.

Thanks.

14. Ear worm!

[dewsgirl]

6. He is a super weird dude.

[maxsolomon]

7. Indeed. And yet we leave that off the table.

The hair, the spray tanning, the constant need for adulation, the weirdly inaccurate use of adjectives ("Perfect", "Beautiful" letters).

[Claritie Pixie]

8. On our dime he says these things. Our tax dollars paid for this idiocy.

[RainCaster]

9. He said these stupid things for years before being elected. Yet too many fellow idiots...

wanted somebody like them in the White House.

[StarfishSaver]

10. Who are all these people just "coming up to" the president of the United States?

Especially in light of how rarely we ever see Trump interact with human beings he hasn't appointed or his staff hasn't personally selected to appear in a photo op with him?

We used to see Obama, Bush and Clinton regularly interacting with ordinary people. Not so with this guy.

[MyOwnPeace]

15. GREAT point!

Unless they're "club members" at Mess-A-Lago - ain't NOBODY walking up to the jerk and having a "Oh, THANK YOU" discussion with him!

Really, when IS the last time we've seen him actually in a crowd and "being" with people?

HE'S SUCH AN ASS!!!!!!!

[maxsolomon]

19. Probably other elderly white republicans at Mar-a-Lago

if anyone.

[Hekate]

11. The journalists call them "Sir stories." The "Sir" is a tell that it's a lie.

18. CNN has a very good article on this:

https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/16/politics/sir-trump-telltale-word-false/index.html

"Trump has told false "sir" stories on all manner of subjects: health care, the Middle East, the courts, unions and -- just last week -- both tariffs and social media. But no genre of Trump story is more reliably sir-heavy than his collection of suspiciously similar tales about macho men breaking into tears of gratitude in his presence.

In a speech in January, Trump painted a colorful picture of the "strong, tough" farmers, ranchers and builders who stood behind him in 2017 as he signed an executive order to rescind a water regulation. "Half of them were crying," he told the American Farm Bureau Federation, especially one man so tough he might not have cried even "when he was a baby."

"He was crying," Trump repeated. "He said, 'Sir, you gave me back my life. You gave me back my property.'"

Touching if true. Absolutely not true."

12. Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

[KentuckyWoman]

16. At least he finally quit randomly feeling people's heads.

Or maybe he is and it just doesn't get reported anymore, in light of bigger things.

[Blue Owl]

17. Jeepers creepers look at his weeping Freepers

[Maru Kitteh]

20. "Sir" is one of his most reliable tells.

[Scurrilous]

21. Someone should do a mash up of sir story vids to the tune of 'Start Me Up.'

[Mc Mike]

22. He's the giver of life.

Truly, the king of kings.

23. Daniel Dale on another Trump "sir" story

Grateful to @donlemon for letting me go on television to discuss Trump's latest crying-burlymen story, the very best subset of sir story.

24. "People have been so grateful ever since I said I'd shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue!"

[Vinca]

25. People might be crying, but it's either that they're so damned depressed or

they're laughing so hard they are crying.

26. Sir,

Sir, or should I say Sire? You are a pox upon the land, a true scourge and great vexation to the many who fall and weep in your dark and sinister shadow as you wield your evil sword of ruthless lies to decapitate the heads of liberty and justice, stabbing democracy and disemboweling the Republic as you appease your lust for power and command all to cater to your fiendish whims.

A greater pox, a horrendous, consuming pestilence of orange flesh you are, unlike any we have known in this great land. Begone!
