A Trumpian Candidate on Trump’s Corset
No work shirt for Doughboy Donald. He wears a floppy suit jacket and a baseball hat. What’s he hiding?
By Calvin Trillin

People are asking—I shouldn’t be saying this, but a tremendous number of people are asking—why does Donald Trump always have on that floppy suit jacket? Why doesn’t he button it? Can he button it? Other candidates, when they visit a state fair, wear bluejeans and a work shirt. A work shirt. They want to show that they’re in good physical condition, because a President needs stamina. He has to be high energy. No work shirt for Doughboy Donald. He wears a floppy suit jacket and a baseball hat. What’s he hiding? .....

Or a corset.

He was definitely wearing man-spanxx or something at the debate.

I am simply making the observation because he has a cruel streak that insults people/women on their weight and appearance.
