You cant stand under my umbrella! Donald Trump keeps his brolly to himself as Melania gets soaked

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by NH Ethylene (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: Yahoo News U.K.

Pictures of the President getting on board Air Force One in Florida show him holding the umbrella above himself to stop his unique hair from getting wet.

Unfortunately, Trump didnt bother letting wife Melania and son Barron underneath as well, leaving them well and truly exposed to the elements.

The trio were on their way back to Washington from Trumps Mar-A-Lago club, after spending the weekend there.

Lots of pictures at the link ... sorry I can't figure out how to imbed these.

As the article says and the pictures depict, but the title doesn't say, Barron is getting soaked as well.

Bet she was counting on just hanging on for a short while longer.
She might have to actually divorce the turkey.

how sweet it was the way President Obama always walked behind Michelle, with his arm loosely and protectively around her, until she was safely aboard.

And there you have one of the many differences between a classy, intelligent gentleman and a crass, ignorant, arrogant, ill-mannered buffoon.
