They made him. All of the free press click bait stories helped put him where he's at.

18. They will still fawn all over him like someone in an abused relationship.

Does he really think that is what the Coast Guard wants to hear?

CBS Evening news tonight only showed interviews with Harvey survivors praising Trump.

Other than photo ops, what did Trump do?

It's said if you read it right, Trump's hair mirrors the path of Irma.

12. I noticed today that his hair looked especially flat and thin on top.

His scalp looked pink underneath. So I suspect the heat and humidity (and wearing that MAGA hat) mussed up his carefully coiffed do. It also looks to me like it is a different color (or colors) every day. Getting blonder every week. Is he aiming for platinum ? The sides at times look very white, so why doesn't he just go with that and forget the Clairol. Also a good cut without all the dips and swirls would improve his mop immensely. He would save a ton on hair lacquer alone.

that windbreaker with the blaring, white open lapels is driving me nuts too. It looks like a big ole "V" right under that sessile head of his. He may think the "V" symbolizes victory or some cockamamie thing. I'd be willing to bet he has each one of those lapels taped down too, like he does with his ties.

that's worth my giving my attention to, much less ruining my evening.

I'm trying to keep mediocrity out of my life at my advanced age.

I've seen and heard way too much of it already.

our son was in the Coast Guard and like they all do, he saved others and never said anything...just did the job.. This poseur is outrageous.

17. I can't watch it either

his world view is only as far as the tv shows he watches. apparently he watches all day long but he must be missing what I've seen.
I hate this man with a passion.
