Senior Republicans told CNN that they were furious that Mr Trump spent his day "playing" in a fire truck, and indicated that he had "no clue" what was happening as the bill's chances of success cratered.

(13,524 posts)Unfortunately for the President, it seems that every time he jumps into the driver's seat, Trumpcare crashes in Congress.
Mr Trump got behind the wheel of a fire truck as a part of his Made in America week this week, and photos show him having a pretty good time. He smiled at his vice president, Mike Pence, who stood outside of the bright red emergency vehicle and smiled back. He gave a thumbs up and waved to the press corps snapping photos of the pair. As the sun beamed down on the White House, he also played with a baseball bat for the cameras, and wore a cowboy hat.

(59,584 posts)They supported and voted for a whiny, incompetent, verbally incontinent man-baby, with no experience at anything but yelling at employees, faking his way through "reality" TV, and cutting deals with Russian mobsters.
Now they're complaining that the Derp Diaper is always reeking and full.
What. Did. They. Expect.

(31,109 posts)In reality he is.
Did not know what a strong dollar was.
Does not know anything about business or real estate. How he has so much of both is he is a criminal.
What bothers me is half of this country LOVES him because he is a disgusting criminal.
THAT is why we are done.
And dont correct me (anyone) and say it isnt half, it IS when you consider who votes and who doesnt vote.

Eliot Rosewater
(31,109 posts)More than they dont care, they LOVE that he is a liar and thief and that he openly attacks minorities, brown people, the disabled, etc.
They are deplorable human beings and they represent great danger to the living.
I love this pic, gonna steal it, thanks.

(115,683 posts)Michael Dukakis got such a ration of shit for that photo in the tank, but Trump looks much, much more ridiculous. He looks like a giant but very dim child.

(182,789 posts)Dukakis's shot that footage and realized how stupid it looked so they thought they buried. Someone in "the media" got ahold of the footage and left a VCR Tape outside a Bush campaign members hotel room.
At least that's the back story as I've heard it.

(36,423 posts)Here he is tooling up to his golf course Note: the photographer was so good, he caught BOTH hubcaps in the perfect upright position.
Hell, he liked the Phantom so much, he bought a second one to drive at his Scottish golf course

(65,340 posts)his younger years. He drove up to her apartment building, but just told her to get in. He didn't meet her at the door of the building or open his car door for her. And in fact he stuck her with the bill when the restaurant turned out to not accept credit cards and he didn't have cash on him. He promised to repay her, but if course he never did.
But anyway, he did drive.

(4,164 posts)Most of us have lots of toy vehicles to play with, I don't think he was ever allowed to play.
smirkymonkey
(63,221 posts)I would feel sorry for him if he hadn't turned out to be such an asshole. A lot of children were never allowed to play. They haven't decided to take their rage out on the world.

(2,404 posts)anything but a golf cart. Kablooie brought up this point.
I was trying to remember if I've ever seen a picture of him behind the wheel of an actual car. A moving one, that is.

(28,789 posts)i think the one where he lamented about his previous life, but anyway, one of the things he misses is driving.
