7. +1. Evil is the word.

[dixiegrrrrl]

3. lil piggy man with his lil piggy eyes...

There is no denying that he walks around with a scowl most of the time. Never seen a less happy person.

5. Pence: "Please, God, keep me from losing it until he's impeached

and I finally get to be president."

Trump: "I have to take a dump."

The image above (cropped, close-up below) was taken on 21 September 2016 in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. In this moment, Mike Pence and Donald Trump were supposed to be praying. They were attending The Midwest Vision and Values Pastors and Leadership Conference. I say, "supposed to" because Donald Trump was absolutely not praying - and we can say this with 100% certainty.

12. Thanks. n/t

[highplainsdem]

15. Thanks for catching that!

8. The fact that evangelicals are latching themselves to this charlatan

Speaks more about their values than his. They want power...they want a theocracy built on their view of Christianity...they see the goal they have fought for for over forty years nearly within their grasp...These so called Christian leaders will claim Trump is born again, he's God's chosen leader, he's this or that, as long as it serves their purposes, which is access to power.

Meanwhile, Trump is using these sick fucks to maintain his power, like his idol PT Barnum, whose autobiography Trump claims to have read back in the day, and, I believe, one of the few books he probably has read because it serves as a "how to" book for Donnie.

While Donnie remains a threat, the douchebag to his right is the truly scary one that wants to make "Handmaids Tale" a reality for our country.

10. Donald Trump and Pretending to Pray

https://www.bodylanguagesuccess.com/2018/04/body-language-analysis-no-4267-donald.html

Summary: In this moment, Donald Trump was not praying - he was pretending to pray. Rather, Trump was feeling contempt. Because Contempt involves putting oneself above another person (or them below you) - we know with absolute certainty he was not thinking, meditating, or praying to any being he thought to be superior. Moreover, as Contempt (or any strong emotion) facilitates diminished self-awareness, it contributed to his lack of caring that others saw him in this moment of feigning.

18. Mahalo.. That's right dalton.. feigning prayer while

everyone else has their eyes closed..

Condon is looking around with his beady eyes planning his next revenge.

You can't make this shite up.. that he would be caught like this.. and it's taken this long after being rigged in.. for this pic and caption to really hit home for a lot of people, I would imagine.

[Blue Owl]

13. Plotting some sort of petty revenge by the looks of him

n/t

14. Oh wow.. it captures his souless pos

entity.

Mahalo, highplains

[dalton99a]

16. That should be his official presidential portrait

Vile, menacing, evil

[Cha]

19. While others are praying..

Yes! that will always be my official rigged in pic of him.

[world wide wally]

17. He wears his evil like a halo

[Corgigal]

20. Doesn't seem to be buying this prayer thing.

However, religious people want to believe so bad, that they won't trust their lying eyes. He doesn't give a damn about any of it. Doesn't give a damn about anything but himself.

[Grammy23]

21. Aren't we glad there is an official photographer on the scene to catch him in moments

Like this? Not closing the eyes during prayer is one thing. Lots of people don’t close their eyes during prayer, although the common convention (of Christianity for sure) is to bow the head and close the eyes until Amen is said. tRumpolini apparently never got the low down on how one acts during a prayer or if he did, he just doesn’t care.

It is not the open eyes. It is the mean expression on his face and the fact that he is glancing around the room. Maybe he is checking to see if anyone else has open eyes. Fellow heathens like himself perhaps?? But whoa. That facial expression could stop a clock. Thank you to the photographer who caught that. Any doubts about his evil mind will be erased with a glance at this telling photograph. Evil personified.

22. Grammy, I figure he's eyeing some female off-camera.

Plotting, plotting and scheming.

...... ........

[nevergiveup]

23. God help us, Jesus!

What did we do to deserve this pathetic excuse for a human being? I will never be able to get my head around the fact that 40% of the American people support him. It shakes me to my core.

[yortsed snacilbuper]

24. god, protect us from your followers.

[Hekate]

25. That is one mean-looking SOB

[catbyte]

26. ...or lack of one. Yikes. He's pure evil.

[MFM008]

27. Its a Wonderful Life

The movie from 1947.
This guy is Potter.

28. Dementia glare.

[malaise]

29. And that's his best

'let us pray' face.

[Mc Mike]

30. Sullen, sulking, like a bad grade schooler in time-out.

Combined with scowling, vengeful, wrathful and evil.

Yeah, that sums him up. If we could get him strangling a kitten at the same time, the tableau would be complete.

31. Behold the republican family-values role model*
