I knew that there were no fly lists one could be put on after the insurrection, but I didn’t know it meant anything like this. Here is Donald Trump up on stage, not exactly the picture of sartorial splendor that one might expect from an elder statesman.
Actually, there are two schools of thought on this, the other being that his pants are on backwards. The theological debates should continue for some time.
Others are noting this, but it can't be shared enough: Donald Trump gave his big speech today with his pants on backwards. Look close and tell me I'm wrong.pic.twitter.com/sRsoJVfyf8

And there are those who say it’s fake. Any of you tech types want to weigh in?
Whatever happened or didn’t happen here, Trump went out of his way to mention Joe Biden’s stumbling on the steps of Air Force One and once again, for the nth time, he brought up the Death Ramp at West Point, which he said was “like a skating rink” and how he was “wearing Italian shoes” and how slippery and dangerous it was. That moment still sticks in his craw for some reason. Maybe it should occur to the man that if he would stop talking about it other people would forget it.
And don’t forget the incident where he had toilet paper stuck on his shoe when he ascended the steps of Air Force One. Staffers see these things and they don’t tell him. That says to me that there’s some passive aggressive behavior going on, because they don’t like or respect the man and certainly that makes sense.

UPDATE: 7:20 p.m. PDT Snopes reported earlier today that Trump does indeed have a zipper in front.
We keep it real here. No fake news.
Lol the toilet paper on shoe not mentioned by aides which makes sense and is sad but hilarious all at once
He who shall not be named is wearing adult diapers, so it does not matter whether his pants have a fly, or he wears them backwards.
HTF do you put on a pair of zippered pants backwards!!??!?!!??
We all have put a T shirt on only to realize it’s on backwards, and I’ve had my battles with loungies or sweat pants……but a pair of ZIPPERED PANTS??!!??!!??
Answer: he didn’t. It’s the way the light hits it.
Snopes has looked into it, of course:
Then he needs a new tailor…..I’ve never seen a business cut ride anyone like that before.
Yes. Checked Snopes too. Trick of the light or photoshop. Spouse says it would be impossible to put trousers on backwards and zip and button them. Alas, T is a dope, but he wore his ill-fitting suit the usual way.
Maybe front-page writers should check Snopes before they write what even at first glance seems like a ridiculous story.
Why does anybody care? Sheesh.
Because it shows his mental state .
But it doesn’t actually show anything when it is a false story. I understand the sad necessity in today’s political climate of having to keep an eye on Trump even when though he is merely a private citizen. However, this is ridiculous and robs the site of proper gravitas regarding the danger Trump is still posing for the continuation of America as promulgated in its Constitution. Murf has a current article about the authoritarian GOP.
Maybe it’s the latest thing for him to wear, when his belly and ass are interchangeable in the projection used by the tent and awning company
I don’t see why anyone should care about this guy no matter what he does or doesn’t do. He is a faded photo of himself and we need to let him fade completely. Don’t cover his rallies or anything else that he does.
The picture is badly photoshopped, blurring even the wrinkles in his pants.
