Ever notice how Donny Two-Scoops is always sitting in photos?

He's usually sitting behind the desk.
That hides his corpulence.
And if there's someone with him, they are always standing.
Typical boss-underling posture.

Ever notice that Obama's oval office photos usually show him standing with his guest?
Probably touching him?
Handshake, hand on shoulder/arm.

Big difference, hunh?

Everyone stands when the king/emperor walks into the room. The monarch does not rise for anyone.

(i.e. VP and Cabinet who in normal times, deserve respect) about - like a king with his serfs begging before the almighty one.

Someone in news needs to do an expose and interview all trump's serfs who have left...especially Tillerson, Sessions, Mattis !

The laws of physics would kick in and his top heaviness would cause him to fall over.

Really he's your textbook definition of the fat, evil, empty suit wearing boss who fires people like it's his hobby.
