Trump explains why he is the only president in 100 years to not have a dog

The president also said the idea of adopting a dog seems a bit 'phony' to him

www.independent.co.uk

President Donald Trump is the only president in more than 100 years to not own a dog while living in the White House - and now he's explained why.

The last president without a dog was William McKinley, the 25th president. He did, however, have kittens, parrots and roosters as pets. Mr Trump, on the other hand, is breaking presidential tradition by having no pets at all living in 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

On Monday night, while appearing at a rally in El Paso, Texas, Mr Trump explained that the concept of adopting a dog is “phony” to him, and argued that his supporters will still like him despite not owning a dog. He also said that he just doesn’t have the time to look after a pet.


“You do love your dogs, don’t you?” Mr Trump said to a cheering crowd, after a tangent about how German shepherds have the superior ability to sniff drugs being smuggled into the country. “I wouldn’t mind having one, honestly, but I don’t have any time. How would I look walking a dog on the White House lawn?"

Mr Trump confessed that a lot of people have advised him to adopt a dog since it would make him look good politically, but he has repeatedly refused to consider pet adoption arguing, “that’s not the relationship I have with my people.”

“I don’t know, I don’t feel good,” he added. “Feels a little phony to me.”

I thought maybe he was allergic to pet dander or something....Makes sense, I won't have anymore dogs because one would likely out live me at this point.

Given the work Trump puts in that would be one lonely dog. That and he's old.

They sh*t, p*ss and dig up the greens.

This thread is about dogs not liberals.

When you get up at 3:00 in the morning and work for 15 straight hours 7 days a week having a dog would be cruel

He has a dog. His name is Mike Johnson.

Trump had a dog. It scarfed up his Quarter Pounder when he wasn't looking & that was the end of him.

Now that shit is funny I don't care who you are!

 

[Winston]

He has pretty damn good kids and grandchildren. Seems far more important than if he has a ******* dog.

Unlike you, I am not so easily impressed. Admittedly, I know nothing about his grandkids, I doubt you do, and that is a good thing. But his children, I am far from impressed.

Trump is a well-known germaphobe weirdo. That's why he doesn't have a dog.

I agree. Adopting a dog for optics is a horrible idea. You need to be able to spend time with it, love it and care for it. If you are not capable of that, then you dont need a dog

That's probably not true.... He would never touch a McDonald's wrapper if that was the case.

Dr P..... Is one of a number of the brotherhood of sock puppets belonging to a single poster.
This poster is it paid propaganda shill for the left.
His duty and responsibility is to spread all types of negative impact about conservatives, Republicans and traditional values.

Always remember that's Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" handbook was dedicated to Satan.

Nothing uncommon at all about it there are hundreds of thousands of people with the same hygiene habits. In fact I'll bet it was you during covid who probably wore three masks and carried around a 5 gallon bucket of disinfectant.

This is nothing more than sculpted journalistic filigree carried to the umpteenth degree.... taking a normal behavior and trying to make something out of it that it is not.

It is therefore quite understandable that you chose this particular sock you today to highlight such a phony piece of overblown information flotsam.

He already has plenty of lapdogs hanging around the W.H.

.

An intelligent approach.

When I lost my last pup, I purposely adopted an older dog because of the fear of dying before she does. Luckily, she has made two very close friends who would take her in an instant if that happened, so she might adapt to the loss.

I respect President Trump for his stance.

And ask yourself, why were Joey Autopen's dogs so mean?

.

Clinton fell for that trap. He got a dog, Buddy. Buddy was dead within a week of leaving the white house. Remember Socks, the cat? He went to a secretary. What happened to Bo the shitstain obama dog? He dematerialized.

It's okay that Trump doesn't have a phony dog.
