Saw a video. They all had glasses which makes looking even more dumb. It was just glance real quick, he didn't stare, but then they all pull out the eclipse glasses next.

Sam Clovis, Donald Trump's pick to be chief scientist for the Department of Agriculture, has argued that homosexuality is a choice and that the sanctioning of same-sex marriage could lead to the legalization of pedophilia, a CNN KFile review of Clovis' writings, radio broadcasts, and speeches has found.
Clovis made the comments between 2012 and 2014 in his capacity as a talk radio host, political activist, and briefly as a candidate for US Senate in Iowa. His nomination has drawn criticism from Senate Democrats, who argue his lack of scientific background makes him unqualified for the USDA post overseeing science.
Clovis has repeatedly argued that the science on homosexuality is unsettled and that "LGBT behavior" is a choice. The American Psychological Association has said that while there is no scientific consensus on the causes of sexual orientation, "most people experience little or no sense of choice about their sexual orientation."
Asked for comment on Clovis' beliefs surrounding the science of homosexuality, a USDA spokeswoman told CNN: "The Supreme Court settled the issue in 2015." The White House did not respond to a request for comment.

I like how any of the times he looked up Melania made no attempt to stop him lol.
OK everyone hates Trump, and rightfully so. But do you all agree with the assassination comments by various dissidents lately?
No. But if he starts a nuclear war my answer may change. They do need to calm down with the assassination talk and just let Mueller do his job and continue non-violent protesting especially anything that hits Trump in the wallet.
I'm going to check out some pro-Trump sites I know and see them justify his moronic behavior. I mean, it isn't like someone snapped a pic of him glancing up for a moment. He's pointing up like the total moron he is.
Somehow, the Trumpers will spin this into something positive. The brainwashing is that deep.

The reason for the speech is a disaster, re-starting a war, putting more lives at risk, etc. It's a distraction. Everyone knows it. A small handfull of things said were good, but any words that come out of this person's mouth is meaningless. Who he is will not change and he has shown, many times, his words cannot be trusted. He's a pathological liar.
I've yet to watch the scumbag live ever since the debates, nor have I watched his deplorable self in full. Judging by Lemmon's comments, and MR X's comments, it seems like I may have to watch the entire tirade?
I'd rather have my kids sit through a rated R movie than have them listen to that sh1t talker
I hate to admit it, but this is classic Trump and it works.
It reminds me alot of the Megyn Kelly thing way back when this started. It's a Fill In The Blank statement that invites the media to jump in to explain it or lob accusations. Then it gets spun as if the media went hysterical jumping to conclusions or putting words in Trump's mouth and the public eats this stuff up.
It is classic trump, but the media can't ignore it. They have to continually do this so that it's not the norm. They really need to push more on the McConnell story.
Fogle, you've been respectful and haven't posted anything of nonsense. I need to ask, how is trump defendable at this point? This week alone he's been a two face "leader". One day he's attempting to divide, the next he's saying we need to come together. There are, not that I can see, no redeeming qualities in him. Not on a leadership level and not on the level of a human being.
What do you draw on that allows you to continue to support him? I can't see it.
