When Donald Trump supporters asked him to sign their baseball caps at the White House Easter Egg Roll, they might not have anticipated his reaction.

Video footage shows a child reaching out to the President as he walks past with his security entourage.

“Will you sign my hat?” the child calls out.

Trump tells crowd of children at Easter Egg roll US 'will be stronger'
Mr Trump takes it, signs it with a marker, and tosses it into the crowd, rather than hand it straight back to the child.

“No!” the child calls out.

But it’s too late – the signed memento of the White House annual tradition and a once-in-a-lifetime chance of meeting the Republican had been tossed into the wind.

He can't even autograph a child's hat without creating a scene.

This story shows how the UK press views our President.

1. This is a dick move.

[Adsos Letter]

2. +1,000,000 n/t

[demigoddess]

12. times a million!!!

What an a#$%^&*

[cstanleytech]

5. That and a bowel movement are the only moves Trump knows and both are shitty in the end. nt

[snooper2]

38. No, he is just teaching the child there are winners and losers

Kid is obviously a loser because he didn't jump in the air and grab the hat beating some ass of whoever would try to steal it....


LOL

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

42. Absolutely, it shows he cares nothing for the kid. He took it as an opportunity to show off. n/t

[PatSeg]

3. Damn

What an ass.

[LuckyLib]

4. There is something off kilter with him. He does not get context. At all. Can not seem to

demonstrate appropriate social behavior in any situation.

[Crash2Parties]

6. Thought it was just another rally and the kid was paid.

[left-of-center2012]

8. Trump was set up by a Soros plant

[tecelote]

31. I love this...

"Mr Trump's team was expected to hand out 18,000 wooden eggs to around 20,000 people, compared to his predecessor Barack Obama who welcomed 37,000 guests and handed out 85,000 eggs."

[mercuryblues]

32. 2,000 eggs short

Can you imagine being a kid, invited to the WH egg roll and NOT getting an egg? The Obama's had enough sense to order over twice as many eggs than participants. Making sure every kid got at least 1 egg.

[nocalflea]

33. Poor Kellyanne couldn't lay enough in time.

Valiant effort , though.

[Blackjackdavey]

39. Half as many

I think it's notable that they projected half as many visitors -- and of course ordered exactly that many, because business...

[Honeycombe8]

7. What an idiot he is. It's all about HIM. He wanted to rev the crowd up.Screw the kid. nt

[Norbert]

25. No people skills whatsoever

He never needed them. He had daddy's money and the ability to screw people over. The kid needs to get in line behind the TrumpU students and building contractors.

[Chicago1980]

9. Well...

Maybe now the kid will know how big of an asshole republicans are will never grow up to be one.

Maybe Trump is MAGA one distraught child at a time...

[rpannier]

10. Bravo Trump! That sends just the right message

If Hair Douchengroper will do that to some anonymous child, imagine what he'll do to Kim Jong-un
Maybe he'll wrinkle his jacket or draw smiley faces on the man's shirt or cause the pen in his pocket to leak

[not fooled]

11. A screw-up

from start to finish.

They can't even conduct an Easter egg hunt.

[Scarsdale]

29. Very true

They did not want to do it anyway. Getting close to REAL people is not a tRump "thing". Since the rich NY people avoid them, they really should TRY to connect with a group elsewhere. SAD. We went from CLASS with President Obama, to CRASS with Vlad's hostage tRump.

[sheshe2]

13. What a guy...

Steals from children now.

[Nitram]

14. I wonder if Trump suffers from Borderline Personality Disorder.

[MontanaMama]

19. According to my therapist

And the other therapists in her practice, Dump is a malignant narcissist. He meets and or exceeds all of the criteria. My mother was a diagnosed borderline personality and that s no picnic either. However, I'd take a borderline over the malignant narcissist any day. Dump is wacked. I almost feel sorry for his kids. Almost.

15. Duplicate of earlier post. And it wasnt what it seemed either

Scroll to the bottom for a clip from NBC showing the kid catches the hat

[LeftInTX]

17. Yeah, I figured the kid was a teenager

[MrPurple]

16. And the Easter Bunny, Frederick Douglass, is doing an amazing job & being recognized more & more

[NBachers]

18. President Obama would have handled this much better.

[Scarsdale]

30. President Obama

handled EVERYTHING better than this orange ass.

[burrowowl]

20. Bullying kids!

What a fucking low-life toxic slime! Can't pick on people his own age? He is odious!

[Midnight Writer]

21. There's a metaphor in here somewhere

[SunSeeker]

22. Pathetic that our own press did not report this.

Could you imagine if Obama did this?

[truthisfreedom]

23. Alzheimer's.

No doubt about it. The man is demented.

[padah513]

28. Yep

No other explanation for something like that.

[Maxheader]

40. Grade B

Matches a relatives actions I had....
Somewhat mean..anxious a lot of the time...argumentative
without direction...Docs graded her a 'B' dementia...mom..

[Cha]

24. Creating an ugly scene and hurting someone.. a child

this time.

And, his stupid voters are ok with being cruel to children.. they really are too stupid to vote.

[briv1016]

26. He'll get the kid another one,

for $50.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

27. What a dick move by Trump! I hope the kid at least got the hat for free earlier.

"Would you sign the mylar cover of my Honus Wagner baseball card?"

"Sure." (Signs and then flips it to the crowd.)

"Noooo!"

[ProfessorGAC]

34. Which Part of "My Hat" Did He Not Understand?

The kid asks "Will you sign MY hat?" MY hat. Then he throws it away? Sheesh!

[japple]

35. Trump's turnout was about half of the Obamas, but don't tell him that!

"Mr Trump's team was expected to hand out 18,000 wooden eggs to around 20,000 people, compared to his predecessor Barack Obama who welcomed 37,000 guests and handed out 85,000 eggs."

[Chakaconcarne]

36. OK, it did not occur the way it's being described...

He threw the hat up about 7 feet straight in the air and watched it land (or be caught) right in front of him. It looks like the kid may have had to pick it up, but walked away with it. It WAS an awkward moment, but more of a "here try and catch this" kind of thing.

I dislike Trump, but let's not perpetuate over-dramatizations.

[roamer65]

37. In a year or so, the kid will be glad he doesn't have the hat.

You get made fun of for having the autograph of a treasonous bastard.

[Maine-i-acs]

41. This is just locker-room hat-signing.

Nothing to see here.

[MADem]

43. Dementia....

It's becoming more evident each day.


This caption was necessary, because it's hard to tell....it would be even harder if the one to the right was a clown...
