trump*'s whole story about Gold Star families wanting to hug and kiss him? Utter rubbish.

[Siwsan]

He's a germaphobe and a misanthrope. The only human touch he gets are those he initiates.

1. The whole "germaphobe" thing is bullshit.

No real germaphobe would have unprotected sex with strangers. It's just an excuse to cover up the misanthropy. It is easier get away with saying you are afraid of germs than it is to say that you don't want to have any contact with people you consider to be lowly scum. So yeah, I agree that it's rubbish. Besides, it sounded to me like he was, at some points, insinuating that they were wanting to hug and kiss Hope Hicks, who he is apparently blaming for getting him sick. What a shitshow.

4. There are different degrees - remember how he makes people who sneeze/cough leave the room.

Perhaps when it involves pleasure, for him, the urge overcomes the phobia.

5. That just has to do with him enjoying treating other people like shit. Nothing to do with germs

since he doesn't want them wearing masks or anything else to protect from the virus which could also help in dealing with germs in general .

[Siwsan]

6. It's all too contradictory and confusing. But then he is a demented narcissist.

I can't even begin to understand how his brain functions, and I need to stop trying.

2. but don't lose sight of the fact

that Gold Star families were at the Petri dish of covid infestation...

3. Has anyone seen even ONE SINGLE FUCKING PICTURE of him hugging

ANYONE over the entire course of his Presidency?

"THOSE DISGUSTING PEOPLE".

I rest my case.

7. Just Ivanka

and some of those were pretty close to being hugs of the weird kind.

8. Literally moments after I posted, I thought to myself that I should have

put a disclaimer in there, saying that I'm excluding the ones of him and Ivanka going back to when she was around 12 years old!

9. And that flag

10. People do that when you're famous. They don't even wait -- they move on him like a bitch. nt

[treestar]

11. Ugh, no one wants to hug or kiss that excrement

He's utterly insane.
