A pathetic man.
That desk is shockingly devoid of any documents. Not a single paper on that expanse of wood. Exactly what “work” are we to assume is occurring?
I’ve not seen such an empty desk outside of a furniture store room.
Hey, anyone remember that other photo of him “working”? He was supposedly writing his inauguration speech, on a blank notepad, with what looked like a Sharpie?
So how can he actually be getting anything done without his flock of sycophants? Where are they at?
I….suppose….. posing for photographs is….. kind of…. work if you’re president.
They should take another one that makes him at least look like he knows where he is.
He could be doing practice pushes on his Big Red Button.
What we know:
1. He has grabbed the (traditional) phone and is talking to someone (maybe);
2. He has nothing to write on, so obviously has no need to make notes;
3. Could be composing a tweet in his head, though more likely is dictating a tweet to his secretary, who will then transfer it to Twitter;
What we can infer:
4. Could be lining up a pussygrab; danger here that this will get into Twitter also as unfake news;
5. Could be talking to Vlad Putin about mutual interests, whatever such might be;
6. Could be reporting to Vlad Putin and requesting follow-up orders, whatever such might be;
There are so many possibilities….
A tidy desk is a sign of a tidy mind. An empty desk……
Conservatives used to make a big deal about how Ronald Reagan respected the Oval Office so much that he never even took off his suit jacket. Sitting at the Resolute Desk for a photo op wearing a campaign baseball cap seems profoundly disrespectful.
I found a copy of a portion of the transcript of the pictured phone call:
DOTUS: “I work very hard. Tremendously hard. Everybody says I am the hardest-working president ever. Some people are even saying that I’m the hardest-working PERSON ever. I’m blessed with good genes. Not like those people from those shithole countries, where they’re too lazy to clean up their shithole. Sorry… what was I talking about?”
(voice on phone): “Uh, sir, this is Domino’s Pizza. I think you were ordering a large pepperoni, and then things kind of got sidetracked.”
DOTUS: “Oh, yes. Yes. I need the pizza because we’re working very hard here at the White House during this Democrat Shutdown. The Schumer Shutdown, I call it, because Chuck Schumer is the President of the Democrats. A lot of people don’t know that. I do, because I work hard and I’m very smart. The doctor gave me a test that proved it. Some people are saying I’m the smartest president ever. Certainly smarter than Obama, which is not surprising because he comes from one of those shithole countries. Of course I always knew I was smart. My uncle went to MIT you know. Good genes.”
DOMINOS: “Uh, sir… the pizza?”
DOTUS: “Yes, yes. We always get Domino’s Pizza now. Used to be Papa John’s. Great guy, Papa John. Was very strong about blaming black players kneeling for his loss of sales. And he got tremendous support from all the white supremacists for doing that, just tremendous. But then his company said they didn’t want to be the pizza of white supremacists and they apologized! Sad! So no more Papa John’s pizza for us. Which is too bad, because we need pizza during this Schumer Shutdown. Hey, you should go call Domino’s and order us a pizza!”
DOMINOS: “Sir, this is Domino’s.”
… and it just kind of goes downhill from there.
*applause*

#10, #12: Beautiful!
I notice that his hat is now white. Is that significant?
Anyway, maybe he should instruct the maid while they’re on the phone not to mix his red and white hats in the wash, or they may all come out pink.
(Hey maid, there’s an idea actually!)
DOTUS = Dunce of the United States?
Holms,
Yours is also appropriate, but my intention was to refer to the Dotard Of The United States.
Dotard
Dunce
Dickhead
Do You Really Actually Fucking Believe He’s President?
It all works.
Screechy Monkey, well done. All the internets.
