Oh Lord! - Donald Trump: "Nelson Mandela and Myself Had a Wonderful Relationship"

I mean, they did stand next to each other once.
When a towering figure like Nelson Mandela dies -- a revolutionary, an emancipator, South Africa's first black president, one of the most beloved figures ever in the struggle against not just apartheid, but racism and oppression in all its forms -- the most important thing to do is immediately establish, Oh yeah, I totally knew that guy. Or at least, that's the route Donald Trump took.
A few hours after Mandela's passing was announced yesterday by current South African President Jacob Zuma, Trump took to both Twitter and Instagram, posting a couple inspirational Mandela lines, as well as the picture you see above and a message: "Nelson Mandela and myself had a wonderful relationship--he was a special man and will be missed."

3. Donald Trump: Humblebragging Bullshitter Extraordinaire!!!

This picture looks like they ambushed the guy while he was having his dessert, and "got the shot" for their "Lookie lookie--I know FAMOUS PEOPLE" wall!



Nelson Mandela, heard muttering: Who is this asshole with a squirrel on his head?

4. Your right the picture does look airbrushed.

5. Hee hee--AMBUSHED, not airbrushed!

Nelson looks like a guy who is halfway through his pudding and coffee, and a couple of idiots come up pleading for a candid with the great man...so he stops eating his dessert and obliges them, with a sigh.

But hell--for all we know, it could be a photoshop. I put nothing past that Trump nitwit....

7. Yeah I am sure he always was bothered for pictures.

9. So they* bothered Mandela @ dinner (that is what it looks like to me) and "The Donald" has ....

.... the balls to speak about his relationship w/Mandela after his death?



* Donald and his daughter

6. Trump: Me and Nelson, yup, we were totally BFFs!

Trump has an ego big enough to be seen from space. And guys like that never realize how transparently they reveal their egomania every time they open their mouths (or tweets).

8. I noticed he does not allow responses to his twitter account.

10. Final proof

he really is insane.

Not worth my time; why do I care....
