President Donald Trump made another careful descent of the Air Force One stairs Friday afternoon upon his arrival in Palm Beach, Florida, this time clutching Melania's hand all the way down.

I hope this doesn't make that West Point guy jealous.

I don't know why I was expecting something substantial when I clicked on the link. He's just holding her hand as a (weak) gesture for Valentine's Day. Petty articles like this are just meant to give Trump free oxygen. Wouldn't be surprised if the authors are actually on his payroll.

OK, like he was holding the handrail and the soldier's hand for V-Day.

And then immediately shoos Melania away after he gets down the stairs.

The man is stroke-ridden and stroke-addled.

Who's running the country?

Tell me it isn't Cheung.

You're absolutely the first person I've heard suggest that Donald is loving and sentimental.

#7- My comment didn't suggest any such thing. On the contrary, it suggested the action was just for show.

Anyway, I'm not seeing anything in this thread that isn't in line with what one would expect from the health of an 80-year-old. Go ahead and rip Trump when he behaves obnoxiously and uncouthly. This thread is just taking oxygen away from legitimate points and concerns about his presidency.
