Yikes! She looks as creeped out as I would've been. Poor kid--she looks like a hostage. And what's with the letch expression on his yam-colored face?
Yammering Yam + Flint Visit = Clusterfuck
On edit: Here is the same little girl meeting President Obama:

No comparison.
Siwsan
(26,241 posts)That might actually make a pretty good sort of subliminal ad - contrasting pictures of Hillary with kids/Trump with kids. Maybe something along the lines of what they have done, so far, to benefit children. No contest, there.

I personally think that subjecting children to 'photo ops' (when they clearly don't want to be in one) is inhumane.
She looks like she would rather be elsewhere.

(14,914 posts)I'm not sure whether it is a germ phobia or just plain contempt. Either way, this darling little girl picked up a negative vibe and knew that she was nothing but a prop, the human equivalent of the PlayDoh in the Baton Rouge flood photo op. Trump's handlers probably saw the adorable footage of her with the president and thought they could use her to generate something equally endearing. Wrong! Just like in the old story, it was a little child who knew that the emperor wasn't wearing any clothes.

(34,131 posts)I could get their video to play so I searched for it on YouTube. She was so thrilled to meet President Obama! And I think she was terrified of Trump.

I hope she recoiled from him like that hostage child did to Saddam Hussein back before Desert Storm.
