Related: About this forum“short-fingered vulgarian.”
Nearly 30 years ago, Graydon Carter, the editor of Vanity Fair magazine, described Trump in Spy magazine as a short-fingered vulgarian. In an editors letter in "Vanity Fair" last November, Carter said that he wrote the Sky magazine comment in 1988 "just to drive him a little bit crazy." And according to Carter, it still does.

As Trump talks straight through a lunch-hour town hall in February, hungry New Hampshire voters appear mesmerized by the five chicken-tender-like appendages radiating from his sausage-patty-size palm.
Below link is a must read. Hilarious!
Ever since Spy magazine first labeled Donald Trump a short-fingered vulgarian in the 1980s, the licensing maven and presidential candidate has been pushing back, insisting with trademark bravado that his fingers are, in fact, not so short." He has even claimed, though never in the presence of rulers, yardsticks, or tape measures, that my fingers are long and beautiful, as, has been well-documented, are various other parts of my body.
Now, thanks to months of exhaustive research, VF.com has uncovered photographic evidence that we believe will settle the question of Trumps finger length once and for all. Scroll down to see for yourself. (Note: this project was underwritten in part by a generous grant from the California Baby Carrot Growers Association.)

Chicken McNuggets, perhaps. Or Vienna sausages (like his other, lower, singular appendage, immortalized in oil by a profoundly insightful artist). The chicken tenders I get are larger than my fingers and his.
I suppose he should stick to taco bowls.
