Jane Goodall reveals how Trump acts like a male chimpanzee

December 14, 2022


Environmental activist and primatologist Jane Goodall ..........................

Goodall first made the observation in 2016, during Trump's first presidential campaign, and told MSNBC's Ari Melber on Tuesday that the former president still displayed the aggressive tendencies of the primate species, reported HuffPost.

“I see the same sort of behavior as a male chimpanzee will show when he is competing for dominance with another," she said.

Melber showed her video footage of Trump skulking up behind Hillary Clinton during one of their presidential debates, hugging and kissing an American flag and describing himself as a “perfect physical specimen.”

Goodall lamented that Trump's behavior seemed to be contagious and had created tension and division.


"[That] can have a ripple effect around the world," she said.

Goodall chuckled, then replied: “I see the same sort of behavior as a male chimpanzee will show when he is competing for dominance with another.”

“They’re upright, they swagger, they project themselves as really more large and aggressive than they may actually be in order to intimidate their rivals,” Goodall continued.

Goodall later lamented how the divisiveness created in America ― by Trump and others ―“is a tragedy” that “can have a ripple effect around the world.”
