Donald Trump Replaced His Alpha Male Handshake Yank With A Mean Girl Power Move! Watch!
April 24, 2018Remember how last year when Donald Trump was first meeting world leaders he would make a point of asserting his dominance by jerking their arms in an asshole handshake move?
Well, he has a new alpha male power move — only it's really more of a mean girl maneuver.
In his White House meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday, our worst person made a point of talking up the pair's "very special relationship". Then he pointed out some dandruff on Macron's shoulder — out loud! — and overtly wiped it away.

Macron, who is said to be among the best at "handling" Trump laughed it off like a real Gretchen Wieners, secretly resenting the Regina in front of him.
Way to handle that one.
Ch-ch-check out the embarrassing moment for America (above) and some of the best Twitter reactions (below):

Donald Trump comments on Macron’s dandruff but not James Shaw, Jr.’s heroism.

"When the aging gorilla is confronted with the much more virile, new alpha-male, he shows submissiveness by grooming the alpha-male, but the gesture is actually a vain attempt by the old gorilla to humiliate his much younger rival."

Last #dandrufftweet: Nobody who writes about this should say as fact that Trump wiped dandruff off of Macron. There's a very significant chance he invented fake dandruff just so he could pull this move. Carry on.
