We know that Donald Trump is a world class buffoon and asshole. But every time we think we have him pegged, he presents us with another crazier piece of shit than we thought was possible. He's "proud for not misbehaving at the GHB funeral."??? -- Republicans, you own this orange disease. And hopefully, he will destroy you.
The president attended the state ceremony Wednesday in Washington, D.C., where he received a chilly reception from his predecessors but heard no open rebukes from the Bush family or other speakers at the services, reported the New York Times.
Administration officials revealed to the newspaper that Trump was snappish with aides most of the week, at least partly because he resented so many ceremonial events focused on the former president and not himself.

(12,344 posts)He's a toddler. When he doesn't get his way, he throws a tantrum. When he wants attention, he grabs it. When the adults talk, he is bored. When you praise him, he beams. When you reprimand him, he sulks. And when he acts like a big boy, he wants a cookie.

(63,221 posts)He can never just be one amongst the crowd. He always has to have the spotlight. Even at someone else's funeral!
I forgot who said it, but there was a quote about someone saying "He had to be the infant at every christening, the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral." This describes Trump to a T.

My father (Theodore Roosevelt) always wanted to be the corpse at every funeral, the bride at every wedding and the baby at every christening.
Of course, TR was actually a competent president and a decent and loving human being.
