If you’ve ever seen Donald Trump shake hands with a man, especially a man of power and prestige, you’ve probably noticed that the so-called president likes to hold his grip for a long time and then pull the other person closer in a show of power and dominance. It’s sort of a personal pissing contest, which is ironic since Donnie probably pisses and shits himself several times a day and is about as masculine as the eunuch child of Oompa Loompa parents.
Dementia Donnie tried his handshake on Great Britain’s King Charles when the royal arrived at the White House, but things didn’t go quite as Trump had expected, with The Daily Beast noting that the king got the best of his host.
“King Charles has come out on top after an awkward 10-second handshake with President Donald Trump, who was spotted afterward with a swollen hand.“
“What was supposed to be a friendly greeting appeared more like a tug of war, with the king, 77, refusing to be the first to end the handshake.”

We’ll save discussion of the bruise and swelling on Trump’s hand because it does no good to speculate on what is causing it, and Donnie’s doctors only say what he tells them to. The guy’s health is deteriorating at a rapid rate, and all the denials in the world aren’t going to forestall whatever health maladies still await him.
But at least King Charles didn’t let Trump show him up, which delighted those who saw how the handshake went.

They probably just pumped him full of fluids to be able to be in public and it hasn’t fully absorbed into him yet. pic.twitter.com/sHSBkgaWb1

The poor King had to shake that bloated extremity.

Later today, don’t be surprised if Trump tries to blame the bruising you see in the video on his heroic actions at the White House Correspondents’ dinner. He probably had to try to fend off bullets, even though none were actually fired by the alleged shooter.
It’s tough being a superhero, huh, Donnie?
