He just doesn't look comfortable in direct sunlight does he?

Here he is looking good out of the sunlight

He could probably make a 2nd suit out of the excess material on any given suit he does wear. Maybe he refuses to let the tailor measure him and cut the cloth properly for fear he'll contract Taylor's Syndrome, or still more oddly does he think all that extra cloth hides the fat?

If only they were smoking in that photo. An opportunity missed promoting profoundly unhealthy living.

Trump is scared of touching cloth.

Although he does enjoy looking directly at eclipses with no eye-protection.

With the size of that suit it's more touching the void

Theres only so much blame to can lay on the tailor.

I don't know. Maybe Trump likes the baggy look and to him it's akin to slobbing on the settee with a t-shirt and some jogging pants on. He might even be buying off the rack in a size to fit someone even fatter than him

ETA:

It's one of the greatest speeches many people have said. He's there to thank Flotus and the staff for arranging eggs for the kids, and then he lurches into a semi-coherent ramble on his achievements, the military, and I think Obama and the Wall though for all it really is a great speech I've forgotten some of the actual detail

Just pure class boasting about military might during a Easter speech.

Neo Christianity.

Trump seems a fair target for a lot of jibes, but is he really a god botherer? He is somewhat his own god, but that doesn't seem to bother him much.

Trump's complaining about the fake news media suggesting he'd make changes to his cabinet team, looking at his record for hiring and firing and hiring and firing..., well he almost has a point

Talking about professional, diplomatic, mature, presidential speeches...

He literally calls his script "boring", throws it away, and goes off on a racist rant instead.

I doubt Trump worships anything but himself and money. Mentioning God occasionally keeps some of his base happy so he is probably reminded frequently to throw a reference in.

As long as God's ratings are up Trumpy loves him

It would seem God has stepped in to loan the Kushner's a shitload of money

I'm assuming it is God who's stumped up the case, if not one might be inclined to think whoever has put up the money is expecting one hell of a policy change from team Kushner Trump. Nobody can surely be making the funds available to the Kushners on a straightforward business transaction as it just looks like money down the drain.

Ken Doll seems to be there exclusively to barter loans using his position as White House cabin boy as leverage. It's astoundingly blatant. Like a drunken burglar tip-toeing through broken glass under a fluorescent light.

This is exactly what a declaration of interests is supposed to stop. This on the face of it has the potential to be the biggest and best corruption claim ever, finally a triumph for Trump

FBI acting on a referral from Mueller

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-43706709

If Trump can tear himself away from his real focus on the everyday executive duties in his role and the latest in Syria will he have a moment to respond to the My Attorney Got Arrested latest and finally get around to firing Mueller? And then what happens next? Will there be a revolt by the GOP or will they double down and try to sweep it under the carpet? And will voters care if in a democracy a President shuts down an investigation in what's not an everyday piece of political work?

What a fucking circus.

Trump has tweeted that it's a witch hunt, which I struggle to care about but really in most leaders it'd be poor form to disparage one's own legal system so, but worse he's noted that the raid on his attorney's office is the end of attorney client privilege, and that's likely misleading in the extreme. I don't know but I assume investigators will not be allowed unfettered access to attorney work product and the courts will employ a special master (is that the right term?) to review material and decide what can be handed over to the justice department investigators.

He doesn't know his arsehole from his elbow. Feed him some Maccy Ds and let him take a nap.
