Trump boasts about the strength of the military to children at White House Easter Egg Roll



https://www.rawstory.com/2018/04/watch-trump-baffles-children-bizarre-rant-military-strength-white-house-easter-egg-roll/

President Donald Trump on Monday welcomed children to the White House for the annual Easter Egg Roll with a bizarre rant about the strength of the American military.

In his address to the children at the event, Trump began by referring to the White House as “this house or building or whatever you want to call it because there is no name for it, it is special.”

The man can't talk to children at all. Reminds me of that disastrous Boy Scout speech he gave.

1) Does Trump have syphilis on the brain?

b) Don Jrs's soon to be ex-wife doesn't want to be anywhere around him.

iii) Barron Trump has some real problems and I wish him well and I hope
he gets some help.

Every time I see him he looks expressionless and muted. Doesn’t look like a happy 12 year old.

Donald was 60 or 61 when he fathered the young man, Barron.

My heartbreaks for that young man. Trump promised him a puppy
if he won the White House and then told him that he couldn't have
one after he "won."

they promised me a puppy if I got all A's. I got all A's and then they reneged on their deal. Messed me up bigly and now I'm absolutely DOG CRAZY.

Donald breaks out that cheesy smile for the benefit of the camera, but I can't recall ever seeing him laugh.

off the top of his ratnest head. Unlike past Presidents who carefully planned every word that came out of their mouths, this boob doesn’t think that is necessary. Even knowing (I think) that every word, pause, sniff or gasp for air is parsed, he still likes to just stroll out like the monarch he envisions he is and go on an unscripted comment. That is because every utterance from his pouty lips is golden.

To show how unaware he is of what flows from his mouth....he welcomes everyone and then proceeds to tell them that the building behind him has NO NAME. I am sure that caused some confusion among everyone there, including the children, who know very well that it is called The White House and has been called that for some time. They have the name emblazoned on menus for state dinners, White House correspondence, signs out front, etc. But he was just running his yap off the cuff and once spoken, his words drift off into the wind and then evaporate.

He is a moron. Full stop.
