I tend to shake hands a lot. I was taught to do that by my dad. I taught my two DAUGHTERS to shake hands...look people in the eye...and shake their hand firmly.

I find it difficult to not shake hands anymore. I’m sure Trump finds it difficult also.

I know Trump is a self-confessed germophobe, but I have heard is reaction to this is “I have to shake hands in my job, so that is what I do”.

I understand that. Just wash the hands after. I don’t give a rat’s patootie what leftist worms say, I have shaken hands with people my whole life, and it means something to me.

I’ll be damned if I am going to fist-bump because some wimp tells me that hand shaking is a medieval construct or some other crap.

Obviously, I won’t do it now out of concern for someone who I might shake hands with who might not be comfortable, and I don’t want to make them uncomfortable.

But when it is done, I am not jettisoning the custom. They can all kiss my rear end.
