Where's the tweet where he brags about having a superior handshake or strong hands? I haven't seen it yet. Please link it. That would be funny.

The media does it, its stupid. Trump does it, its funny. Classic trolltrot.

Stupid and funny can be the same thing. It is funny because it is so stupid from all sides.Trump for squeezing people's hands and from the media for making it a thing.
It is especially funny because it bothers you guys. Lol.

 

[buka001]

Or if the French president out-alphas your handshake and makes spicy jabs at your expense

Did you see the thumb impression left on Trump's hand?

Not to mention 6'2" Trudeau standing next to 6'3" Trump.

Who said they are bothered by it? I would say its Trumpets that are salty because Macron is more alpha than Trump.

Trudeau wore 2" heals or is obviously lying about his hight.

Alpha in terms of what? Woman?

Trump beats Marcon there hands down, Marcon's wife is 24 years older than he is...

See reitrot, i told you they were salty.

How is that evidence of being salty? You throw around loose terms like "alpha" without defining it. Is it "salty" to ask people to clarify what they actually meant?

Lol It is a very obvious preschool level argument for when you have nothing.
"You're stupid" "No you're stupid"
"You're salty" "No you are."

Yes i throw around loose terms like alpha :crylaugh: . Now all of a sudden you don't know what alpha means. Trump was the one bragging he will take people in a fight but really hes just an obese 70 year old. Macron showed that in something as simple as a handshake.

So you don't want to define it then. Ok.

Well I would think we are a bit more evolved than the rest of the animal kingdom so one's fighting powers doesn't determine who's alpha anymore. Otherwise some MMA guy would be president.

So it is reasonable that you define alpha. Generally the alpha guy gets the better woman, but I'm not sure if that still counts if you pay for it? Who knows?

Alpha in Trump's world means that in an encounter or social setting, one person comes out on top, defined by traditional masculine role playing and who-blinks-first dynamics. It's pathetic and results in bizarre encounters with world leaders because normal people and modern politics don't act that way. His fans love it because they are deeply frustrated betas, and it's topkek.

So he is still alpha as he didn't back down at the G7.

Yes, very alpha. He's the most alpha.

You are being silly. Trump has to pay for half the sex he gets. Meanwhile Macron managed to seduce his teacher. Seems like Macron takes this one as well.

I know it was an edit.. But still, accurate af.

As we discussed in NYC about the toxic atmosphere here in the D.C. cesspool, my folks are nervous about e-mails you send and ask that you no longer include them on any postings. FOIA is real and everyday here in the cesspool, and even federal court action on personal accounts is real. Then there is the hacking which one of my own personal accounts has suffered recently. I do almost everything now by phone or face-to-face comms.

Oh and Trump's still using an unsecured Android phone, but that's fine, it's fine.

He signed the statement and then later, safely ensconced on AF1, away from any potential face-to-face conflict, blew it up with a tweet.

I believe Roland Paris got it right when he said: “Can’t do it in person, and knows it, which makes him feel weak.” And, “You don’t need to be Freud. He’s a pathetic little man-child.”

So very, very alpha...
