Except maybe on the Secret Service. They look pensive. Understandable. Thanks for sharing this bigtree. ❤

I don't recall him ever being photographed with children of any kind. He feared showing vulnerability which he hid with public rage and aggression. He has no empathy which is a defining characteristic of the psychopath.

Or grandkids…except Ivanka. And those interactions were creepy as fuck.

That brief interaction with her after she introduced him at that convention was rather revolting.

My dad NEVER embraced me that way! I NEVER saw anybody else’s dads embrace their grown daughters that way, either.

Beyond icky.

If she wasn't his daughter. And then the photos of her sitting in his lap when she was maybe 13-15? Those were sickening.

Click “Images” and you’ll find numerous pics of him walking and holding hands with Ivanka’s children.

I’d post a few as proof, but doing so on an iPad is a time consuming pain in the ass.

But he was photographed on the South Lawn walking to and from Marine 1 with his grandchildren numerous times, and at the very least, holding their hands.

What’s fair is fair. It’s true we never saw him interacting with kids at his rallies or anywhere else, but he did do so with his own grandkids.

we'd be inclined to say, haven't those children suffered enough?

Did not think of that until your post. She is a little tall for picking up. Joe is all around bad ass.

They have to soil everything.

"Pee tape. Pee tape."

Your point about their soiling everything is evidenced by the news that the truckers in convoy around DC are soiling themselves.

I can't imagine Trump having the strength to pick up a 60 lb child, or the will to do it.
