Over the course of the past four years, we’ve witnessed a whole hell of a lot of Trump gaffes. From slurred and mumbled words, to barely making it down stairs and ramps, to sporting a bunch of toilet paper on the bottom of his shoe.
But for some reason, throughout this disastrous term of his, there just seems to be something about Donald J. Trump and umbrellas.
A few times now we’ve seen him hogging one all to himself while leaving his wife and youngest son out in the rain — presumably to keep that cotton candy fluff on his head he tries to pass off as hair to keep from melting.
But more than anything, he really seems to struggle with how to operate the damn things.
It’s been sometime now since we saw Trump pretty much toss an open umbrella out of the door of an airplane because he couldn’t seem to manage to close the complicated piece of machinery all by himself.

However, it seems as though no one took the time to teach the guy since then, or he just didn’t care to learn (most likely operating under the assumption that he’s got “people” for that) because a new clip of Trump boarding Air Force One in the rain serves as pretty solid proof that he still doesn’t know what he’s doing.

As is customary with things such as this, at this point, social media piled on:
I like presidents who can close their own umbrellas

The help usually did it for him.. 🙄 And this man has access to nuclear codes. Please do the world a favour and vote this menace out in November!

It’s a little more complicated than lifting a water glass

And someone thought a guy who can’t operate an umbrella could run a country?!

I bet Joe Biden can close an umbrella all by himself.

He drank a glass of water one handed once though, so he cool.

Does he somehow think doing it himself is manual labor unbefitting a monarch?

Ah, November, how we long for you.
