But you know they're like Frank and Clair in House of Cards ... separate rooms ... only they're the stupid-ass version.

was doing the fist pump thing and the thumbs up thing when visiting the 9/11 memorial in Shanksville, Pa.?

He visited that place like he was going to a WWE match. He is a total disgrace to every good American. Words can't sufficiently describe my hatred for him.

...waiting to see him somewhere a couple of years ago. He walked toward them with both fists raised and that "white man's overbite" thing. Also that picture of him sitting in a truck of some kind pretending to drive it. Same fist thing there.

I doubt he knows it has some meanings alternate from his own sense of power.

...it's a facial expression that apparently guys thought was cool when they were making dance moves trying to look hip. The lower lip is caught between the teeth. I've seen him do it with the fist thing.
