Donald Trump is known for not heeding advice. Those who give him advice are often frustrated when he proceeds to do just the opposite.
Take yesterday's solar eclipse. While Washington was a good hike from the path of totality, the man/baby president took the opportunity to gaze directly at the sun, completely unprotected, for several seconds.
Trump's son and latest wife were not nearly as stupid as El Dumb Bugger himself.
Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun. But mama, that's where the fun is!
ReplyDeleteApparently, only the son wasn't as stupid...

ReplyDeleteHi, GAB. Too bad one of his aides didn't tell him not to jump over the rail.
Well, many consider Trump to be "a blind man" anyway ....
ReplyDeleteDonald Trump's eyes are surely similar to my own, and I couldn't see any features of the eclipse, even at ~95% eclipsed. The sunlight, though attenuated severely, is just too bright. Only at totality was it possible (and safe) for me to look at the sun without glasses and see that it was eclipsed.
ReplyDeleteSo Don is not being a tough guy looking at the Sun without solar glasses. He is just being an idiot.
ReplyDeleteThese photos reminded me, Chris, of all the photos taken of Trump in his golf courses. He never wears sunglasses. By contrast I never venture outside without my hyper-polarized Maui Jim's. Any optometrist will confirm that the sun today is far too powerful to dispense with adequate UV eye protection. I do agree, he is an idiot.
