Dolt45 and FEOTUS (First Escort) host Girl Scouts at White House sans masks.

The kids, of course, exercised better judgment and modeled being responsible citizens.

"President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trumpgreeted a group of Girl Scouts at the White House on Friday afternoon during a pandemic response event and neither one of them wore protective face masks.

It was business as usual for the couple as they flouted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's recommendations to social distance and wear facial coverings to help prevent the spread of coronavirus.

The Trumps were holding hands when they arrived at the Rose Garden for the presidential recognition ceremony, where the president handed certificates to individual Girls Scouts and posed just inches away from them for photos.

......

The event was held to recognize and honor those who have helped with the pandemic response, and while the girls were wearing face masks, some of the adult attendees did not. "...(more)

When we chanted that for LBJ back in the Viet Nam era, people were actually dying as a result of the president's actions.

They are today too.

A few months ago, a casual Facebook friend of mine, a national-echelon guy with the Boy Scouts and ardent GOPher, posted a picture & article on FB about Melania meeting with a group of Boy Scouts on some camping trip, telling how wonderful it was that they got to meet her. He excoriated me when I replied back that it was their first encounter with a stripper......We haven't communicated much since.....

That's a Sadam Hussein - Human Shield level photo.

I don't know how to post the Saddam Hussein photo with the British kid, but man...it is eerily similar to this.

Someone needs to make an ad showing both the Dipshit and Girl Scout photo and the Saddam/Boy photo with the caption

"Two evil, dangerous men risking the lives of children"

Trump anything.

Liberal group. Children of Liberals and we were already little activists ourselves.

That piece of paper wasn't worth it. It is never an honor to be showcased by Trump. And make no mistake, Trump is putting on a show with those young girls as tertiary players to his starring role.

It's him, his ego, and everyone else.

They are nothing but props in his "Look at me" narrative.

For their personal safety. I would try to be smart and keep politics out of it. And as I was also the neighborhood chair while a troop leader, I would have counseled the other leaders in the neighborhood to take great care where their troops showed their public faces.

Pandemic or not. Politics or not.

He once remarked about a young girl going up an escalator that he would be dating her in 10 years.

Donald Trump can be heard making inappropriate remarks to a young girl in a video from a 1992 Entertainment Tonight Christmas special, given to CBS News. The holiday show was filmed at Trump Tower and includes a group of young girls. Trump asks one if she is going up the escalator. When she tells him she is, he says: ‘I am going to be dating her in 10 years’

Men who talk like that about young girls aren't being complimentary. They're being creepy. They're being gross.

They sound like predators.

As Liberals, our troop leaders would have never put young girls in that position. And, emphatically NO - I couldn't say that conservatives would see it the same way.
