The photo has also sparked endless memes, as well as bringing to mind one of the best Monty Python sketches ever.

(Warning: This post is vulgar. There’s no way around it. But it’s also full of funny stuff, for what it’s worth.)
I have no idea what photographer Win McNamee and Getty Images were thinking when they went with a photograph of Trump speaking to a gaggle of people from the press, but if they thought to humiliate Trump, they utterly failed. Instead, it’s a post that instantly turned into an epic meme, because it is the living embodiment of (a) Trump’s power and (b) a Monty Python sketch come to life.
Obviously, I can’t reproduce the image itself, but thankfully, it’s all over social media: [X post at link]
Yes, it really does look as if President Trump is the manliest of all manly men.
Leftists, of course, pretended that the image hurt Trump. Buzzfeed collected some of those responses: “full diaper stance,” “first day of Standing School,” and “my toddler before he starts s***ting his pants” came from the Trump haters.
