That photo kills me. The expression on his face, the legal pad and pen... the "Winter White House".
Twitter is having a lot of fun with this one.

He thinks people believe he's actually writing a speech? An articulate speech? With multi-syllable words?
Can we get free tours of the Winter White House?

Get back, Loretta!
So they moved the tourist brochures and computer off the concierge's desk, added a golden eagle lamp, and he seized a legal pad and sharpie from the drawer and a fierce expression from the depths of his soul?
At "The Winter White House"?!
So, he's going to "winter" there, as the Palm Beach set says? Will he "food" there, as a certain blogger says? Will he "president" there...or "smart" there, as the man himself would say?
Will he numbskull there? (Okay, that was just me sayin' that...)

He could add a huge pile of files/papers to the photo op and hold a press conference, too. ![:crazy:](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/G0Qxztyjs53n1ic_fEBG.jpg) Busy guy!

I'm nauseated thinking about how far his arm will be stretching to pat himself on the back during his speech. Maybe he should ask Melania to write it. She did so well with hers.

Is that Trump or Baldwin? I'm on my phone & it seriously looks more like Baldwin. And if it was already announced that it was Baldwin but I missed it and am now making a fool of myself, please don't tell me. 😁

He would NOT be giving Baldwin that kind of recognition.

It's like that except Trump is becoming indistinguishable from his caricature.

I am reasonably sure that if I knew you in real life we could be bestie mcbestertons. "Get back Loretta!" is a phrase that is uttered multiple times a day around the anxious house...whether it is a kid sneaking to dip a finger in a batter, a curious cat trying to stick his paw where it isn't wanted or a car encroaching upon my space... ![:laugh:](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/Ivm7lm0DayrhoRpwvCeH.jpg)

I actually don't think it's funny. He presented this photo as though it should become part of the history of the Trump presidency and yet it's fake. It's the concierge desk at Mar-a-Lago with the regular desktop comments removed, he's holding an empty pad and a pen with the cap still on it, pretending to write his inaugural address. This may well become part of OUR American history and yet everything about it is a complete and total fabrication. So it begins.

Unbelievable. Why go to such lengths to stage something so ridiculous and so easy to call out? To give people like those were posting on this thread the opportunity to express more code out rage" or ridicule. Knowing I'd be inaugurated tomorrow, I'd be laughing my way all the way to the White House

It's all about appearances. Doesn't matter if the inside is decaying and disgusting. All that matters is it looks good.

The President serves at the pleasure of the people. He is a public servant. He should care that people are outraged at his lack of seriousness into what this job entails.
If he is in fact laughing, as you said you would be, then that shows both of you only care about one thing - being the winner. Not actually being right, just being able to stick your tongue out and say you won.

And when he screws everyone over and ruins the country, will you be laughing then? I really hope I'm wrong but unless they give the man a lobotomy, it's looking to head that way. The number of people who just care that they won is staggering but many haven't even given consideration of how much of a train wreck it's going to be for the next 4 years.
