VIDEO: Here's the Brand New Trump Photo That Has Everyone Talking, But It's Not Because of Him
Western Journalism ^ | 8/21/2015 | Norvell Rose

The photographer complimented Trump for his consistent "blue steel gaze".

Given his campaign slogan “Make America Great Again,” it seems only fitting that Donald Trump would pose with a bald eagle named Uncle Sam for a magazine photo shoot TIME magazine had the 27-year-old eagle flown from Texas to the Manhattan office building where the real estate mogul and GOP presidential hopeful has his office overlooking Central Park. According to an article in The Daily Mail about the rather unusual photo session with the stately old bird (referring to the eagle, of course), the TIME photographer found the human subject much easier to work with.

How cool! An ex BF went to Lake Buchanan to see them in the 80s. I was sick & didn’t get to go :-( I’ve only seen them at the zoo.

This is Time magazine’s video. Too much of the photogs, imo, but more of DT & Uncle Sam than the Fox one..

As rich as he is, he still has water towers as a view.

calmest, most domesticated raptor I’ve ever seen or this bird LOVES Trump, too

I saw the nancy-boy from the magazine, the photo shoot editor or whatever, and he said everyone was terrified of the big bird (the eagle not the Donald).

Said the eagle wasn't as gentle as might appear and everyone was waiting for all hell to break loose.

Trump's cool around the great raptor no doubt helped keep it calm.

lol You just know they were probably almost all hipster pajama boy types.

I read that- about it being skittish. It didn’t look nearly as much so as some raptors I’ve seen. (Loved it that he was sooo photogenic) At the demonstration I saw, people were urged to be very still & keep their younguns in hand. I would have thought with all that commotion, Uncle Sam would *not* have been at ease.

DT must have been kind of joking around. Now, HE looked a little skittish but the bird didn’t seem to be picking that up (& would have).

(geez missed this one, too :-/ ) How fantastic! I would get *nothing* done.

(I get pretty worthless when the new babies are learning to fly & following their moms around in the yard or when the transient ones make their appearance- & the baby squirrels, too)

“Awesome” may be the most over used word in the English language but that is the best word to describe these majestic birds. I have been scrambling to get my work and errands done because they usually take flight around 6 o’clock in the evening. When one dives, it just takes my breath away.

When I narrate tours in Yellowstone and Jackson Hole, my favorite thing is spotting eagles as we do our float trip down the Snake River.

Oh wow. You are sooo lucky. I don’t remember the details of their being at Lake Buchanan, but I really ought to try & get up there for that.

(I know what you mean about ‘’awesome’’- but it’s true.)
