And trump’s expression reminds me of the look a racoon gave me when I caught it in a flashlight beam rooting through my trash.

That’s his new “resting bitch face”. Well, resting grumpy old man face. Fans thought his mugshot looked tough so he’s now leaned into it a bit much.

Her Mexican boyfriend. Everything Trump does is rooted in some personal grievance. A Mexican boyfriend would explain his irrational hatred of all things south of the border.

Perhaps a Mexican, trans weightlifter, who works on a wind farm and on the weekend volunteers for the [Shark Trust](https://www.sharktrust.org/).

People are saying Fox & Friends put a black cloth on their white couch before their special guest Trump sat down. Fox is claiming that it was Trump’s coat we’re seeing, but like I said, people are saying Fox & Friends put the black cloth down to avoid any accidental poopies from ruining their white couch.

He has the best skull (unfortunately still wrapped in soft tissue).

The black cloth hides the evidence from immediate view; it’s also there to hide the very absorbent towel underneath, that is really protecting their white couch.

I guess if you saw a picture it might kind of look like that, but in a video you can tell it’s his jacket.

Here’s a page explaining it (scroll down to the update).

> **[Fox protects iconic Curvy Couch during Flatulent Felon interview - National Zero](https://nationalzero.com/2024/10/18/fox-protects-iconic-curvy-couch-during-flatulent-felon-interview/)**
>
> Eagle-eyed viewers watching Trump field pre-screened questions in the friendly confines of the Fox “News” morning show likely noted a new edition to the Fox & Friends’ signature “curvy couch” as they interviewed the 78-year-old Republican rapist...

I still like that page’s title.
