your reminder that the real culprits in all of this are the producers of The Apprentice, who took a bankrupt imbecile with no impulse control and the attention span of a coked-up squirrel and peddled him to millions of gullible dopes as ThE sMaRtEsT bUsInEsSmAn In ThE uNiVeRsE

She looks so different now. Not just older, really different. Her eyes and the shape of her face seem different.

I remember seeing this in a magazine at the time (People, I think). That was during the campaign, when I still thought he was nothing more than a bad joke. *sigh*

Baron (who names their kid "Baron," anyway?) looks bored on his stuffed lion.

Trump is already losing his hair and doing the side comb.

Melania's dress did not age well.

Millions upon millions of these slack-jawed, mouth breathing, booger eating yokels actually thought Trump was a "self-made man", and when they found out he was a racist, xenophobic, misogynistic tool....."HE'S OUR MAN"!

Few of them have the integrity to say, "I was wrong", so they'll stick with him forever.

The media needs to take full responsibility for setting this psychopath loose on our country.
