Now this is really bad....look how fat tRump is compared to all the other leaders......

[a kennedy]

http://www.businessinsider.com/awkward-g7-family-photo-shows-tensions-at-the-summit-2018-6 I’m so embarrassed of that AND WHAT A PIECE OF CRAP tRamp is.

[kimbutgar]

1. The body language is telling

[Kaleva]

2. Is Trump sleeping?

[mahatmakanejeeves]

3. Fat-shaming? That's the best we can come up with?

Maybe we could say a few words about his, oh, I don't know, policies?

[a kennedy]

9. and i'm sorry......i've gained a lot of weight, and feel terrible at how I look.....

but he really just stands out with all the other leaders being so slender.

[lunatica]

50. Don't apologize

Trump is a piece of crap who takes children away from their parents and puts them in cages.

He needs to be shamed in every way imaginable.

Ignore the Trump defender above. He/she is being an asshole.

[Ms. Toad]

72. So if he was black, would you shame him as a n*****?

It is the same principle. when you shame someone for a characteristic that is not inherently bad - you are passing judgment on everyone else who shares that characteristic.

[lunatica]

75. Why do you play a stupid equivalency game

Trump is a wannabe dictator who actively works to take human rights away and them blames our side for it. Why do you think a man who is putting immigrant children in dog cages after traumatizing them by ripping them away from their parents deserves to be treated like a decent human being? If you object to the trajectory he’s started this country into then you should put your efforts into fighting him instead of fighting those who are fighting him. If you want to rise above it then by all means do so. But putting others down for objecting to him in any way is counter productive and positions you as some kind of morality police.

[Ms. Toad]

80. It has NOTHING to do with "rising above," or treatment of Trump AT ALL.

It has to do with not using fat friends as a battering ram against who is currently the insult target. When I use them to take a swing at the target, they invariably get hurt.

If you don't believe fat is inherently vile, it isn't an insult. So if you are using fat as an insult, you are telling everyone else (including all the fat members of DU), exactly how disgusting you think they are.

[lunatica]

86. I am a fat person so you can't speak for me

It doesn’t bother me one iota when anyone insults grotesque gross people by calling them fat. I’m also a woman and I don’t get my feelings hurt by someone usind the c word. I’m 70 yet not insulted if someone assumes I’m a doddering senile old woman. I’ve done quite well fighting back. But your morality compass is assuming all the things I am need your protection somehow. Believe me if you want to protect anyone then protect those who can’t protect themselves, like people being denied life saving health benefits, or families left destitute by being torn apart by Trump and Sessions’ government.

[Ms. Toad]

87. By the same token,

you don't get to speak for all of the others - several of whom have spoken in this thread saying it is hurtful.

The TOS prohibits bigotry, including when it is targeted against body type.

No bigotry/insensitivity
Members are expected to respect diversity and demonstrate an appropriate level of sensitivity when discussing related topics. Racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, or other forms of bigoted intolerance are not permitted.
Why we have this rule: Democratic Underground is a diverse community which includes people of every race, sex, religious belief (or lack thereof), sexual orientation, gender identity, body type, disability, age, etc. We want to promote a welcoming atmosphere for all of our members, and do not want to provide a platform for bigotry

.

So - while no one is suggesting you have to feel insulted, the TOS says you can't use fat as an insult in this forum.

[lunatica]

91. Then go that extra self righteous step and alert on her

By all means stand fast on your morality beliefs.

[Adrahil]

102. Because fat-shaming is disgusting. Period. NT

[treestar]

119. I hear you but it's the Dotard

Hard to imagine anything more disgusting than he, including fat shaming.

[Ms. Toad]

127. So it is just fine for us to engage in disgusting behavior

that hurts many of our members as long as we aren't more disgusting than Trump?

The point is that shaming Trump inherently also shames everyone else whois fat, including members of DU who have repeatedly asked that fat shaming stop.

[treestar]

131. I don't think it does

We know it refers only to the disgusting POS in the WH. And I'm fat.

[Ms. Toad]

132. Review the rest of the thread - and any other thread

fat-shaming trump. You will find members of DU who are fat who are hurting.

Using "disgusting fat slob" (as an example) as a term of insult inherently means you think "fat" is "disgusting" and that being fat is associated with being lazy and slovenly.

[lunatica]

124. Then by all means don't do it!

[Adrahil]

138. How very compassionate. Nt

[lunatica]

139. And you telling people to

fuck off is model behavior?

[Adrahil]

140. If they are insulting me? Yes.

Many in this place do not give a fuck if they insult people here.

[lunatica]

142. Well unless you're as self centered and narcissistic

as Trump and think that everything revolves around you no one insulted you in this thread.

[Hekate]

103. On the contrary, shame on you for making an egregious false equivalency.

[Ms. Toad]

118. It is not a false equivalency

Using characteristics (race, gender, body types, sexual orientation, etc.) as an insult presumes those characteristics are negative. They don't work as an insult UNLESS they are bad - and they send a notice ot the world that the speaker believes that characteristic to be bad.

(Aside from which expressing bigotry based on body type is prohibited on DU by teh TOS, just as doing so based on race is.)

[mnhtnbb]

125. It certainly is a false equivalency. Being fat can be changed: color of skin cannot.

[Ms. Toad]

130. So it is just fine to shame people for things that can be changed

The discrimination against people who are overweight is similar - at least in nature - to discrimination based on race. Obesity can no more be hidden than skin color (as opposed to sexual orientation or, often mental illness). Unlike discrimination based on race (until, perhaps the Trump effect), it is socially acceptable and legal discriminate based on weight - so it is often not even hidden.

While such bias is less likely to end in targeted violence than bias against blacks, it does have a physical impact via health care - via misdiagnosis of asthma, COPD use of inappropriate or no equipment or just plain refusal to provide medical care for the person rather than obesity

In addition - weight is not as changeable as you might imagine. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1580453

In addition to ordinary challenges to losing weight and keeping it off, there are medical bases for an inablity to lose weight or to maintain the loss (thyroid imbalance, lipedema, hormone impalance) or drugs for other health issues that make it difficult or impossible to lose weight (Corticosteroids, diabetes drugs, antidepressants, steroid hormones, antihistamines, beta blockers, anticonvulsants, antipsychotics and migraine medication).

We should not be engaged in a debate about who it is OK to scorn, based on whether the targets deserve scorn because they can change the characteristic that makes them a target (remember people used that logic against LGBT individuals for decades). We should condemn all shaming based on race, sex, religious belief (or lack thereof), sexual orientation, gender identity, body type, disability, age - and OH - look here - that's what the TOS says, as far as participation on DU.

[mnhtnbb]

136. I'll grant you that losing weight is tough. I know from personal experience: that's not the point.

Some of us feel you made a false equivalency between obesity and race/color with your argument about bias, discrimination, and shaming. I'm insulted by the equivalency and I'm an overweight senior white woman of privilege.


End of argument.

[Ms. Toad]

158. Nice condescension, there.

Using any personal characteristic as an insult inherently defines that characteristic as bad. And the argument about immutability - do you know how long that ws used to justify blatant hate speech directed at LBGT individuals?

I was responding to someone who was being particularly dense about the concept that using a personal characteristic as an insult hurts others who share the same characteristic by using a blatant example that everyone recognizes as insulting all those why share the characteristic to make a point, because the the person I was speaking to was blowing off the pain it causes, despite the responses from fat DU members in this thread - and every time being fat is used as an insult, or as a stand-in for being disgusting, lazy, etc.

If you have a better way of making that point, feel free to share so that I can adopt it - BUT if your point is that using fat as an insult is hunky dory, then you are just plain wrong, and to the extent you use that insult here, it violates the TOS.

[fleabiscuit]

154. Na, it's just that tRump is a fat ugly pig inside pushing out into the open.

[Ms. Toad]

159. Stop using fat as an insult.

Just look through any thread on DU in which fat is used as an insult - you will see DU members who are hurt by it.

[EffieBlack]

143. Are you SERIOUS?!

[fleabiscuit]

156. I doubt that will get an answer. nt

[quartz007]

79. What about Americans who go to prison?

There children do not get separated? Are American children worth less than immigrant children?

[anneboleyn]

112. I agree. Trump looks ridiculous, and that plus his appalling behavior makes him grotesque

[trueblue2007]

115. He has turned into a real pig.

bet he looks pretty much like this statue.

[lunatica]

52. Why are you defending Trump?

He should be shamed for a million things, including how he lies about being in such great shape and weighing 235 lbs.

[mythology]

64. Because fat shaming is stupid?

Because lowering to his level and making fun of people's physical characteristics makes one like him.

[quartz007]

82. Many things worse with Rump than being fat

Fat, short, skinny, bald, flat chested woman, etc etc
are all personal attacks and should be avoided.

That kind of attacks should be limited to elementary school level.

[lunatica]

83. Then by all means don't lower yourself to his level

But to side with him on anything by tearing down people on your side is to just act like a morality policeman.

Are you really defending this strongman wannabe who is taking away your rights as we speak? Do you think we should police our reactions to him when he’s comparing Mexicans to rapists and murderers? Or forcibly taking small children and terrorizing them by forcibly tearing them away from their parents and throwing them in dog cages in a warehouse? Are we supposed to be polite to him? Is he supposed to be too precious for our side to fight him in any way we can?

[kcr]

99. Right. Because that's what makes him so horrible.

See, I think people who are more worried about whether a person says the C word, or called Trump fat and think those kinds of things are the absolute worst thing a person could do are seriously skewed in their judgment, and lead to utterly whackadoo false equivalencies. I wonder why they even oppose Trump in the first place and how their time isn't taken 24 hours a day with resisting just about every other person on the planet against their own pure, perfect selves.

[marble falls]

70. Nobody's defending cheetolini, but fat shaming is what they do and we ain't they.

[lunatica]

73. That's an honorable thought

but in reality slapping one of us down for violating your brand of ethics in this situation is pretty self serving. Why must our side not express disdain against a wannabe dictator who is trying to take everything, including human rights away from us. Where’s your morality regarding the monstrous act of throwing child immigrants in dog cages after snatching them away from their parents? It seems you prefer to defend him by shaming your side.

[marble falls]

81. You've gotten it backwards: criticizing his weight, hand size, small penis ....

grotesque hair styling etc will begin to trivialize his real, provable, significant shortcomings and crimes. He'll become a fat nasty clown and not the traitorous, incompetent, apparently without scruples and degenerate sexually assaultive solipsist he is.

I'm fat. Want to take a swing at me?

I know this: cheetolini is a lot worse than being overweight. If you think this opinion of mine slimes anyone here on DU I will submit respectfully your concern is as misapplied as it is hyper exagerated.

If you think I don't weigh in on the abomination in the White House on DU you don't know enough about me to short-shrift my character. It just becomes another meaningless character assassination.

We don't want him out because he's fat. We want him out because he is who he is.

[lunatica]

89. I'm fat also, and a woman and old

I am quite comfortable with all three and quite capable of fighting my own battles which I’ve done all my life, and very effectively. It doesn’t offend me in the least to see someone use all these things as insults.

Other than that I agree with you on all your points. But you won’t find me shaming anyone on my side of the Trump issue for how they express their anger and shock about what he is and what he’s doing. Infighting among ourselves only serves his agenda.

[marble falls]

92. I'm 1" shorter and about ten pounds lighter than the mistake in the White House...

I look like more than half of Congress and I'm just as old as most of them.

Our day is over and it largely has been a disaster for everyone but a very small minority of Americans.

I agree with every word of your last post. Implicitly. My hope is we come out of this Nov 6 election with a Congress that looks a lot less like me. To do this I will work with you and other fellow Democrats to get out the vote. This is one of the few times were we literally have to hang tight to each other or we will lose maybe the last chance we have to get Congress fixed before its too late.

Congress is to be the voice of the people and not the rubber stamp of a wannabe dictator.

[lunatica]

93. 👍

Yup! If we stick together through everything we have a chance. If not we’ll lose much more than we think.

[bdamomma]

146. congress has lost their way

we need to put them back on track, they do get their cues from us. If we speak out loudly the Congress may get it.

None of this: The repigs broke it they fix it crap they don't fix anything. Just my opinion.

[SharonClark]

128. Excellent post. Thank you.

[Duppers]

141. +10

[MFM008]

66. He gets what he gives

And no I'm not better than that.

[marble falls]

69. But that would take all the fun out of it.

[Adrahil]

101. Thank you. Fat-shaming is disgusting. NT

[mahatmakanejeeves]

107. Thanks. Surely we can think of something more substantial about Trump

than his body type to complain about.

Please pardon me for defending Trump, but per post https://www.democraticunderground.com/100210711486#post50, I'm an asshole. I just can't help it, I guess.

[stonecutter357]

105. nope they go low I'm going lower ...

[LanternWaste]

144. My guess would be "it's simply one more thing..." rather than best thing.

I doubt it's "the best we can come up with." My guess would be "it's simply one more thing..." rather than best thing.

But, if you think that it is in fact, the "best we can come up with," that flaw appears to an argument of your own making no one else holds, rather than a collective sentiment.

As for words about his "oh-you-don't-know" policies, I'll direct you to approximately 75% of the posts on DU.

(But I get it... pretending we're offended by a thing, and further pretending it's the sole content of DU, does allow one to live a rather imaginative and fictitious world of our making)

[BannonsLiver]

155. It's okay, it's just Donny.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. I wonder if they made him sit at the little kids' card table

and eat a helping of mac and cheese and a cookie and watch cartoons, while the adults are sitting at the big table, eating grown-up food and discussing important grown-up stuff.

[NRaleighLiberal]

5. I think his orange-ness is what sets him apart!

[Ferrets are Cool]

6. Evil is what he looks. Evil is as Evil does.

Does that make sense??

[D_Master81]

7. 6'3" 237lbs *

* these stats are authorized and approved by President Trump's office.

[Thomas Hurt]

10. I am same build as the sitting fascist and I weigh 270. I willing to bet he has a few pounds on me.

I am fat. He is fat.

[anneboleyn]

114. Yes, he looks like 290ish to me fairly easily. 237? LMFAO!

[greymattermom]

13. And Justin Trudeau

is 6'2". Just compare their heights.

[Cha]

41. And, Dr Ronny.. who said that.. lost his cred.

Just a comparison from 3 years ago..

[lunatica]

94. One looks like guests at a funeral and the other

looks like the start of a much anticipated partay!!

I leave it up to you too decipher which is which!

[Cha]

123. That's an easy one!

Good description, lunatica..

[treestar]

134. The Dotard just looks out of step, out of place

Which he is, as those are real world leaders.

[Cha]

137. Yes, he sticks out like sore Fraud.

treestar!

[bdamomma]

147. I wish the bottom picture

was in present time. That is when we were admired by everyone. We had a smart professional knowledgeable man as President.

Geez we are really in trouble.



That piece of trash junk food stole our most prestigious title and now we are isolated. Sucks really.

[ProfessorGAC]

150. 237 Seems About Right

From the waist up.

Assuming his height is correct, he has the dimensions of an NFL linebacker. He is DEFINITELY not built like an NFL linebacker.

That 237 is the just another lie, and he got a military doctor to do the lying for him. Anything PINO gets near turns to feces.

[thegoose]

8. He looks like an unhappy little kid taking a school picture

Scowling with arms at sides. What an embarrassment!

[unblock]

11. Worst, stupidest, cruelest, most lying, most hateful president ever,

Committed crimes to become president, committed crimes to get away with it, is destroying our government, is pitting Americans against Americans, is bankrupting our treasury, is breaking up families, is breaking treaties, is breaking alliances, is turning America into a Russian satellite state,...

... but "fat".

That's what you're gonna go with, fat.

Alllll righty then.

[greymattermom]

14. People lie about their weight all the time.

But HOW can you lie about your height?

[unblock]

15. It helps to have an entire propaganda network behind you....

[Ms. Toad]

76. It's actually pretty easy, and not necessarily a lie

As you age, you shrink.

I've always said I was 5' 2.5" tall. At various doctor's offices during my cancer treatment (within a 3 month time-frame, at most), I was measured as anywhere from 5' to 5'2."

So - I've shrunk at least a half an inch - perhaps as much as 2.5" - and the doctors' offices don't agree as to my current height. Those that had a tape on the wall, I suspect misplacement of the tape. But at least two that had an integrated height and weight unit measured me at least a half an inch different from each other. Time of day - gravity taking its toll on older bones?

But height is not as objective as it might seem.

[Hekate]

110. As cartoon character Sylvia said: "My weight is perfect for my height, which varies"

[smirkymonkey]

12. He looks completely awkward.

"One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn't belong..."

[Cha]

38. He looks like the "Ugly Greedy American".. unlike

this President..

[smirkymonkey]

56. I miss having a real man as president!

He was such a gift. How low we have sunk since then.

[treestar]

133. Who is also smiling

And looks like part of that group, unlike the Dotard.

[Miles Archer]

16. THEY DIDN'T LET HIM STAND IN THE MIDDLE! SAD! INFAIR!

[demtenjeep]

23. I wish they would have stood farther apart from dotard

to make him really look alone

[lunatica]

96. His head looks flat on top

Seagulls could land and nest on it.

[Texasgal]

17. Please no on the fatness.

We have enough ways to shame him.... Please don't do the body shame.

[shraby]

18. It doesn't bother him one iota to body shame whenever it strikes his fancy.

I don't think he needs anyone to cut him any slack

[Ms. Toad]

35. It isn't Trump's feelings anyone is worried about.

When you express disgust for someone because of how fat they are, you are telling anyone else who also happens to be fat just how you feel about them.

[SharonClark]

68. Exactly!

[malaise]

51. Sorry

He lies about it - he must be exposed

[Ms. Toad]

74. 1. You don't know that he has lied about his weight

Unless you're there with him peering at the scale. (I think it highly likely - but that is still just speculation).

2. To the extent he is lying about his weight, then shame him for lying - not for being fat

[Tatiana]

19. What a F-ing embarrassment. I hate him and all the deplorables.

Just look at his body language. He KNOWS he doesn't belong.

[Kajun Gal]

20. Looks like Cartman.

[Dave Starsky]

98. Trump is essentially a man-sized Eric Cartman.

With none of Cartman's intelligence.

[ProudLib72]

21. no comment

Hope this image shows up.

[rhiannon55]

22. And look at those tiny hands!

They really are unusually small.

[demtenjeep]

24. hey, his tie isn't covering his micro-peen

think he got tired of all the political cartoonist making fun of it?

[rhiannon55]

25. Justin Trudeau is HOT

I love the way he's standing.

[MontanaMama]

33. Me too.

Dayum! What a cutie patootie inside and out. A good man.

[sir pball]

26. Less that he's fat, more that he's appallingly dressed.

He's bigger than the other men for sure, but they're wearing much higher quality suits in both fit and finish, most likely bespoke.

It's amazing what a difference in appearance that level of detail makes, moreso when the "husky" fellow in the rack suit is a lazy slob with no concept of gravitas or poise.

[radius777]

30. He has terrible posture as well,

and looks like bloated penguin about to fall over.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

31. And he doesn't have his coat buttoned like the other men do.

But then, if he was buttoned up he couldn't show off his Trump tie extending below his belt, as usual.

[pansypoo53219]

49. male version of a kaftan. + he is wearing spanx for men.

[uponit7771]

53. Thank You !!!! He looks like a slob

[radius777]

27. thank goodness Macron defeated Le Pen

despite the Russia/Wikileaks/alt-right efforts to install her.

Putin would've had two puppets up there instead of one.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

28. And how is it that the 6'2" Trudeau is a couple of inches taller than the 6'3" Trump?

A true mystery.

[Beaverhausen]

29. 8 people rec'd this childish post

What the fuck DU? We should be better than this.

[question everything]

36. And one alerted for "insensitivity"

As far as I am concerned "insensitivity" does not apply to him. With all his mocking, and offending.

[Beaverhausen]

40. It's insensitive to anyone who struggles with their weight

[msongs]

32. what you do to your body is an indicator of what kind of person you are likely to be nt

[Ms. Toad]

37. You are aware that there are fat people on DU, right?

And you've just told them exactly what you think of them.

[Beaverhausen]

39. Nevermind

People like you aren’t worth it

[DangerousRhythm]

54. Really.

It's a good thing you have the skill to look at someone and tell what they're guilty of having done to their bodies and how poorly it reflects on their character. That's news to me. I'll never defend this shitbag some people call the president, but that statement is WAY wrong and doesn't account for about a million different situations one might encounter out in reality.

[nadine_mn]

59. Thanks...as a person who is morbidly obese

I appreciate your insight on the fact that according to your philosophy I am a shit person. Never mind my years of advocacy for victims of domestic violence, my volunteer work or just in general the fact that I consider myself to be a loving and generous person- I am fat...even fatter than Trump..which makes me an even worse person than he is.

[meadowlander]

109. Not as good an indicator as the dumb shit you say (or write).

[Hekate]

113. Oh, for some reason I thought a particular self-righteous person left DU a few years back...

I forgot she actually had a cohort.

Because, wow, that goes so far beyond what the OP was trying to say that it's left planetary orbit and is accelerating.

[cwydro]

117. Wow. Really? nt

[Shrike47]

121. What you do with your writing hand is also a reflection on you.

[Cha]

34. I think it's emblematic of his heinous GREED.

[Laffy Kat]

42. Man, it sure doesn't help that they put him next to heart-throb Trudeau.

[Buns_of_Fire]

43. I think he's gotta go pee-pee REAL bad.

And he's starting to come down from whatever drugs they shot him up with.
And the seven layers of Kevlar don't do much for his svelte MANLY-MAN figure, either.
And I think the picture was taken just before he started drooling on himself.

[ChrisTee]

44. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is 6'2" and has a couple inches on Trump.

[Buns_of_Fire]

45. You can only stack shit so high before it starts compressing and spreading out.

Another year or two, and I think he'll start looking like Cartman.

[Rhiannon12866]

46. He sure does! And welcome to DU! Pic:

[TexasTowelie]

47. OMG!

Trudeau is wearing brown shoes with a blue suit. I'm going to need some brain bleach!!!11!11!!!

[Rhiannon12866]

48. OMG, you're right! Why isn't this making headlines??

Next thing you know, he'll be chewing gum!

[tavernier]

55. It's not the fat thing

It’s how he stands, like he has a stick up his ass. The others have beautiful posture and form. And it doesn’t help that he buys his suits from Omar the tent maker. No taste, no class.

[Cha]

60. Ikr! Good description, tavernier.

[llmart]

120. He's standing...

like he has a pantful. Probably does.

[yonder]

57. Despite everything else,

his 6'-?" lying ass looks winded from however far he had to walk for the photo.

[Vinca]

58. I'm surprised he agrees to stand next to Trudeau. It's like Beauty and the Beast.

[duforsure]

61. He doesn't look well,

He doesn't act well either but the bags under his eyes are tells he's not sleeping, and I wonder if he's on amphetamines again. His declining health is showing.

[bornfree17]

62. Amphetamines

Make you lose weight. He's not getting sleep because he is haunted by his actions

[raccoon]

63. I dislike Trump as much as anybody else, but sometimes

A person’s weight isn’t just a matter of calories in, calories worked off. It may be a metabolic problem. And some meds cause weight gain. Everyone That I’ve known in real life who is taking SSRIs has gained a bunch of weight.

[treestar]

135. This is true, but it seems known that he does not

eat well, but in the ways that cause problems.

[Bettie]

67. The size of his body is irrelevant

to how awful he is, unless you are making the argument that all people above whatever size you deem correct are inherently evil.

The fact that he is the living embodiment if pretty much every negative characteristic possible should be enough. There are so many reasons to despise him, but "look at the fatty" is the go-to for many people.

[SharonClark]

71. Fat shaming, what a great idea!

Do you also belittle all POC because of the bad actions of one black person?
Do you also belittle all women because of the actions of one bad woman?
Do you also belittle all LGBTQ people because of the actions of one bad LGBTQ person?

Does Trump deserve everything that gets thrown at him? Yes, but that doesn't mean you have to play into his name-calling, ignorant, and juvenile games by behaving as ignorant and juvenile as he does.

This is suppose to be a progressive site but some days you just have to wonder about that.

[Jake Stern]

88. That's the thing isn't it

Wonder how long it would take for a hide if a DUer said "She looks like a $5 hooker!" about Melania's appearance?

[Trek4Truth]

77. This is the least important thing with RUMP and the real world leaders. But yes he does look

like a slob. I'm not shaming anyone just making an observation.

[samnsara]

78. H looks so unhealthy and out of shape. Im sure melanie is comparing him to hunky Justin...

...and wishing she could be a Cougar!

[pandr32]

84. Ha-ha! I love that he is standing next to Trudeau

...who is taller, fitter, much more handsome, and way more popular.

[Butterflylady]

85. Notice how all the men but one, have their jackets buttoned.

He never has his jacket buttoned. I wonder why?

90. This is not fat shaming,

for all those who are offended. imo

It is revenge shaming on my part, and perhaps many others. I have not forgotten that he called Miss Universe, "Miss Piggy".

[Adrahil]

104. Hey thanks for telling when I should be offended when the post is explicitly...

about Trump is fat.

JUST STOP.

[Kashkakat v.2.0]

95. Cant shame a narcissist who is incapable of feeling shame - nt

[Beaverhausen]

97. 10,000 immigrant children are in custody and this is what bothers you about Trump?

Who are you people?

[Hekate]

100. Well, that went off the rails pretty fast, missed points just swooshing right over people's heads...

So many delicate sensibilities to be offended all on one message board. Imagine.

Let me put it this way: the man is bloated and puffy and looks unhealthy as all get out. He looks and acts irritable. He looks like he doesn't get enough sleep and doesn't eat right. His bad habits have caught up with him. He looks choleric, like a stroke waiting to happen.

But oooooo, body shaming: we can't state the obvious because someone will make it all about them.

111. It's actually not about him.

It's about all the fat people (including fat kids) reading this thread and thinking - "I can't be a leader because I don't look how a leader should look" "I shouldn't put myself out there because people will judge me" "People think I'm stupider, lazier or less capable than other people because of my weight".

Trump is a terrible leader because he is lazy, ignorant, self-involved, petty and short tempered, not because he is fat. The OP isn't about his health. It is saying "He's an embarrassment compared to other world leaders because of the way he looks." And that does make it about everyone else who happens to look the same way Trump does.

[Hekate]

116. See post 32 and my reply 113

[Adrahil]

106. Fat-shamers can fuck right off. NT

[saidsimplesimon]

108. The revenge motive, make IT cry on twitter.

Forgot to add this earlier:

122. Trudeau, to T's left, is listed at 6'2", but is taller than Donnie, who claims to be 6'3". Hmmm.

[guillaumeb]

126. Trump is twice the leader as is Trudeau.

Literally.

[workinclasszero]

145. Only around the waist and

that ample ass.

[left-of-center2012]

129. ...

[bdamomma]

148. yuk

tRump doesn't exercise, plus his mirror is telling him he is the fairest of them all!!

[BigDemVoter]

149. What is it that is said? The USA utilizes 2/3 of the world's resources?

We can say the same thing regarding this fucking pig. He consumes 2/3 of the total of anything. . . What a goddamned swine.

[ailsagirl]

151. He makes me ill

[doc03]

152. Being overweight has nothing to do

with a person being a good or bad president. I remember Rush Limbaugh comparing Chelsie Clinton to a dog.

[redstatebluegirl]

153. That is why he hates Trudeau, he is young, handsome and thin.

[msdogi]

157. Disgusting

He just looks sloppy, badly dressed, way out of shape and really pissed. Another is the long string of humiliations to our country for letting this slime be where he is.
