President Donald Trump took in the solar eclipse from the Truman Balcony of the White House on Monday.

Sporting eclipse glasses — only for part of the viewing — and standing alongside Melania Trump and their son Barron, Trump viewed what was a partial eclipse in Washington, DC. The partial eclipse began at 1:17 p.m., peaked at 2:42 p.m., and was set to end at 4:01 p.m. ET, The Washington Post reported. The moon covered 81% of the sun at the eclipse's peak in Washington.

Trump, at one point, did look up at the eclipse without wearing the glasses, which could be extremely harmful to a person's eyesight. According to a White House pool report, one of Trump's aides shouted "don't look" when Trump initially came out and pointed at the sky.

Much of the nation focused on the Monday event, the first total eclipse to cross the country in nearly a century. The path of totality, where the moon fully eclipsed the sun, stretched from Oregon to South Carolina, but much of the rest of the country was able to view at least a partial eclipse of the sun.

I can just see him sitting there mutely, gesturing furiously with his tiny hands.

6. OFFICIAL TRUMP REPLY!

According to a White House pool report, one of Trump's aides shouted "don't look" when Trump initially came out and pointed at the sky.

OFFICIAL RESPONSE:

Don't worry about him looking - he has no vision regarding the leadership of the United States anyhow.

[Sanity Claws]

7. He is trying to get out of work on disability

[elleng]

8. Just another bad example.

[BumRushDaShow]

9. There's nothing inside that empty noggin anyway

so it doesn't matter.

[sheshe2]

22. Oops!

He is going to have trouble reading the teleprompter tonight....anything can happen!!!

[sakabatou]

10. If only he looked longer without the glasses

[MGKrebs]

11. I would say he's setting a bad example for kids but

I doubt any kids are looking to him as an example anyway.

[BillyBobBrilliant]

12. Well, he makes statements

Without having a brain on.

[Judi Lynn]

19. Yep. Doesn't seem to limit him at all. n/t

[Dr Hobbitstein]

13. Fucking idiot. nt

[cstanleytech]

14. It seems Trump does the opposite of what he is told so maybe we should tell him not to resign then?

[KewlKat]

33. I've told my hubby that many times....i said

Why not say something like " I sure hope he doesn't resign as we couldn't get along without him. We'd be in a terrible situation." And then maybe he'd think yeh, I can screw everyone if I resign and then he does.

[Vinca]

15. I told my husband there would be lots of blind Trump supporters tomorrow.

Honestly - I didn't think 2 Scoops was that dumb.

[Xipe Totec]

18. You misunedrestimate him nt

[Xipe Totec]

16. More! More! More!!1!!111!!! nt

[red dog 1]

[Javaman]

[Sancho]

21. Maybe it would be good if an aide shouted, "don't jump off the balcony"!

[Bernardo de La Paz]

23. Like Pence. They are both supercilious idiots

They would both blend in to Monty Python's Upper Middle Class Twit of the Year Competition skit

[CentralMass]

29. +1

[Judi Lynn]

30. Perfect match. Thank you. n/t

[Glimmer of Hope]

40. What a team.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

24. He is safely looking inwards, at the image projected on the inside of his skull.

Trump was probably thinking "which one of you leakers yelled, 'don't look'?"

[MineralMan]

25. He never listens:

[Beartracks]

41. ROFL

=================

[liberalla]

43. This will never get old -- so funny.

[Snotcicles]

26. "That regular shit turnt me orange". nt

[HopeAgain]

27. And he's not blind now...

I told ya he's not human.

[tymorial]

28. Fake news.

Trump would never do anything stupid.

[vkkv]

31. He HAD to be TOLD to NOT LOOK ???

OMG...

[matt819]

32. Wanna bet he jokes about it tonight

Right before he commits to sending more fodd. . . er . . . um. . . troops to Afghanistan.

Might I make a small suggestion?

The war in Afghanistan is not about, well, anything. Bin Laden is dead. Al Qaeda and ISIS have made it clear they don't need a base from which to operate. Afghanistan poses little threat to the US.

Follow the money. It's about the mineral resources. My suggestion. Let the mining companies fund the mercenaries. If they think there's a return, they should be happy to foot the bill.

I know, I know. Ain't gonna happen.

My guess? He proposes that Congress restart the draft and calls for a surge of up to 50,000 troops.

[flying_wahini]

34. He not too bright.

And he is a pig.

[thesquanderer]

35. Because his "hands" were too small to go blind the other way.
