So Donald Trump kicked off his 2020 campaign last Saturday at the Orlando-Melbourne International Airport in Melbourne. The rally included Melania Trump robotically reading the Lord’s Prayer, a terrifying group rendition of Lee Greenwood’s God Bless the USA, and an 11-year-old girl purportedly needing to be escorted out after she wouldn’t stop “sobbing in fear.” But that’s not all.

After the rally, the Trumps rode Air Force One from Orlando to their mansion in Palm Beach and the press was there to capture them getting off the plane. The footage once again shows Donald behaving like anything but a gentleman.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
In the tape, #45 lumbers down the stairs several feet ahead of Melania. (This is nothing new.) When he reaches the bottom of the steps, rather than waiting for his wife, he immediately plops down inside an idling SUV. When Melania finally makes it down the stairs several seconds later, Donald obviously doesn’t want to slide over for her, and so she is forced to walk all around the vehicle and climb in on the other side.
Rude!
Watch the video below.

This has been playing in my head all day. I’m starting to blame Trump.

this reply belongs to the mini-thread, below. I shouldn’t operate heavy machinery.

No one will be surprised at this . The odious creature is an uneducated, unsophisticated, sexist, racist, homophobic boor who lacks breeding and good manners. But I don’t feel sorry for her either. She knew what she was getting when she married him – a multi-billionaire – or so she thought. The fact is that she has not only stood beside him when he makes the most outrageous speeches, she has publicly endorsed him as a ‘good’ man. Love might be blind – but it is not deaf!
This repulsive couple are as far removed from the Obamas as it is possible to get. I won’t be shedding any tears for this ‘Empress’.

President Obama made the top 12 best Presidents. We were so fortunate to have him for eight years, undoing the damage the GOP did during the Bush disaster. His family was beautiful and above reproach. He is truly blessed. I’m so proud of his two terms, given the do-nothing twerps with whom he dealt. President Obama had such a difficult Tedious Right to navigate. They were simply unAmerican. The GOP only thought of themselves and their squirrelly power, giving no mind to the damage done. I hope they wither into nothingness for what they’ve done. They are disdainful. Jason Chaffetz is appalling. Mitch McConnell is a disgrace. I’ve never been more disappointed in our government. Obama was light and leadership, strong without ego. (And a Leo.) How else could he have withstood such brutality from his colleagues; grown men, and women? History will remember him fondly. The GOP sucks for life, never to be forgiven for their rottenness. UnAmerican.
davidkohl
Well said @1EqualityUSA! I am not an American but I greatly admired the former President and his lovely wife. They were full of grace, charm, compassion and intelligence – everything the repulsive tax-avoiding Trumps lack. Mr and Mrs Obama were admired and loved and admired internationally – the current incumbents are despised and hated. As I said in another place – you can’t play nice with the devil and his minions.
1EqualityUSA
It is a dichotomy.

Trump will remembered as the worst President who stole an election and had a huge financial hand from Russia. Trump is owned by Russia and anyone who denies that is lying. Now we are stuck with a woefully incompetent man in the White House that has no business being there. Plus his trips to Florida and New York will cost this nation half a billion dollars a year.

@EqualityUSA
Qualifier: We don’t know if he’s dragged her by her hair, but back in the day Donald got mad at first wife, Ivana, and physically abused her and tore out a couple of chunks of her hair – supposedly because of problems with his hair plugs and she’d recommended the Doctor who plugged him.
1EqualityUSA
oh, I can’t unsee it.
He BGB
I wonder if he competes with her for media attention. Since she’s relatively pretty, partially beautiful, and wears gorgeous expensive clothes, etc., I wonder if the fat, 70 yr old man with the gut, secretly hates her and would prefer her to just turn into a piece of furniture.
1EqualityUSA
They likely had a fight on the way over to his dump.
1EqualityUSA
At least he’s not dragging her by the hair.

that’s the price a dumb, foreign escort has to pay to live in a gold tower with a 70 year old sexual-assaulting racist I guess…

‘nobody respects women more than i do.’
donald trump…..on numerous occasions. apparently he forgot to add ‘except my wife/wives.’
however, maybe she’s only doing what’s expected of her….walk deferentially 3 steps behind her master just as she’s (apparently) never allowed to speak without permission…and only according to the script. he may not have let her get in the car on his side but i guess she can consider herself lucky he didn’t have the secret service throw her in the trunk.
1EqualityUSA
Or strap her to the roof of the car until she blows diarrhea, Mitt Romney-style. Hose her off at the gas station, and upsadaisy.
OzJosh
Look, she’s either the most unscrupulous gold digger in the world or totally clueless, without an ounce of self-respect. Possibly both. Either way: no sympathy.
kevininbuffalo
The POTUS always rides on the right hand side of the car for security reasons. Remember when Reagan was shot? The right rear door was already open so the Secret Service could shove him in in case of trouble. Trump’s breach of chivalry was his total inattention to his wife, he could have taken her arm as they came down the stairs. She walked behind him like a nobody who didn’t deserve his attention. And someone should have escorted her to the other side of the car while Trump waited for her to get in. The man’s a self absorbed idiot.
Gian85
Trump only cares about himself. No one else. And his delusional supporters still don’t get it.
1EqualityUSA
If this is true, kevininbuffalo, they could figure to a more graceful exit, where both are cared for.
DarkZephyr
@kevininbuffalo “Trump’s breach of chivalry was his total inattention to his wife, he could have taken her arm as they came down the stairs. She walked behind him like a nobody who didn’t deserve his attention.”
You noticed that too? That was the part about it all that p*ssed me off the most. He should have escorted her down the stairs and at least pretended that he cared.
Gian85
Trump is a total and complete loser. I am glad my vote went to Hillary, the popular vote winner. Now we have a man who won only because of a slavery era system (electoral college) and still whines about losing the popular vote. All the while he is actually making this country more vulnerable to attacks and can’t even competently fill his government.
I hope the little Milo Yiannopoulos types on here are happy. Say what happened to Milo anyways?
Gian85
By the way, look up at the massively failed US strike in Yemen. Trumps first order to the military. A bunch of school children were killed.
A stupid reckless man (with small hands) in a position of power leads to catastrophic consequences.
Gian85
I still want to run my hands through his hair though.

Etiquette prescribes that a gentleman precede a lady down the stairs and follow her up the stairs. The logic behind that is that the gentleman should always be in a position to break the lady’s fall in the event that she trips or stumbles.
However, one is expected to WAIT for the lady at the bottom of the stairs. You don’t break for the Grand Cherokee like your Taco Bell is getting cold.
1EqualityUSA
Hahahahahahahahaha! Smacked it out of the ballpark.
1EqualityUSA
Has anyone heard from MoBro ever since Yiannopoulis had that spot of bother last week? Perhaps Breitbart took all of their trolls off of the payroll? Companies pulled advertising revenue away. Now the Breitbarters will be cast to the wind. The dandelion has let fly its seeds. Hatred spreads out, metastasizing, putting down roots, coaxing its blood supply. A contender.

Typical Trump isn’t it.
Also, I wish they would ban him from coming to the UK.
davidkohl
I agree about British ban – as does popular opinion in the U.K. But we have a right wing government determined to kowtow to the odious creature in the White House in the hope of getting a better trade deal after their decision to abandon the EU completely despite the fact that the vast majority of voters did not vote to leave. Yet they claim ‘the nation’ wanted it. 17 million people is not the nation. But anyway that is why they will fight the petitions against the odious man’s visit – even though they will have to downgrade it or move it from London.
1EqualityUSA
Cap’n Odious should stay in his tower.
Transiteer
Donald got himself a ‘trophy wife’ and he’s bored with her, if not also annoyed being stuck with her. She’s unhappy because look what she’s stuck with . . . . who wouldn’t be?
1EqualityUSA
Perhaps she cannot feign adoration for him any longer, so he’s now lost interest in her. If she’s going to leave the marriage, she should do it now while he’s busy screwing up the world.
1EqualityUSA
This would be a fun way to protest Trump:

davidkohl
Not a single Trump lackey interested in this issue it seems – are they getting fed up trying to defend The Odious Man’s continuous outrages and decided to follow their other hero Yiannopoulos out the door?
jd_nichols
The President always gets in on the door closest to the last exit… there are also videos of Michelle Obama walking around the car too. Not defending Trump but facts matter.
ryantbo
Yeah sorry but not sorry! She knew what she was getting into when she married him. Not like he is the poster child for fidelity and just being a human being. And like the women before her, she got pregnant – securing her hold to the Trump fortune. No tears
girldownunder
She, is a victim.
