Why Is Only One of These People Smiling? [View all]

Look at this image closely. Except for Donald Trump, who is wearing an idiotic grin, everyone else in this photo is looking grim. As usual, Trump appears to be clueless. Now, I don't know what happened the second before this photo was taken, but everyone but Trump is looking serious, at a minimum, or is feeling some other emotion.

And Donald Trump grins stupidly. That says it all.
