trump is a slob who leaves food containers and wrappers everywhere. I am glad that the White House staff is now checking the trash for silver wear
A new book from two New York Times reporters has exposed a number of President Donald Trump's secrets, though one claim in particular has the president especially enraged â about his Trumpâs bathroom and bedroom habits.

Published earlier this week, Regime Change was written by Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, and had already rattled the White House before its release, with officials fearful that the books authors had acquired audio recordings from within the White House Situation Room, arguably the most secure area of the complex where top officials discuss matters of crises and national security.
Theres something in the book that hasnt gotten nearly the level of attention of the aforementioned scoops and yet its something that, according to sources familiar with the matter, has privately and absolutely infuriated the president and helped contribute to his decision to impose an intra-administration blackout on publicly talking about the book, Zeteo reported Friday.
The claim in question is centered around Trumps bathroom and bedroom habits, namely his preference for having a carpeted bathroom, which reportedly has sparked fear among White House staff of mold growth.
It makes him look so f------ gross, a senior Trump appointee told Zeteo, speaking on the condition of anonymity. The president sees everything, and he knows about the trash and bathroom sections, and thinks its complete bulls--- that it got published.
According to those familiar with the matter who spoke with Zeteo, Trump, who Zeteos Asawin Suebsaeng described as perennially image-conscious and self-obsessed, was complaining to aides and other longtime advisers about the books descriptions of his bathroom and bedroom habits.

(179,579 posts)Just look at him, his appearance reeks of slobbiness. And the gods forbid if he would actually clean up after himself!

(23,081 posts)I'm sure he's had people whose job it was to clean up after him throughout his entire life, starting in childhood. Being a slab and leaving the mess to be cleaned up by others is his normal.

McDonalds, you need to step it up! How about the triple or quadruple McPresidential burger? the gallon jug of McTrumpy Flurry? the McFelon Mega Baconator with free bucket of fries? Enough of this half-arsed cholesterol bullshit!

He's a filthy slob.

(2,813 posts)that he wanted a lock on his bedroom, that only he could open from inside the bedroom......The secret Service was extremely upset about that, and said no previous president had ever done that before......

Id forgotten about locking the door.
Hes a slob but a particular slob. He wanted the clothes and food wrappers thrown in the ground just as they were.
I doubt he bathes very regularly. He does his own hair and makeup 👀 so a shower would mean starting all over.

(6,707 posts)Does he not have ample staff to clean up after him??
Maybe he is like a kid who won't let anyone come in his bedroom?
FakeNoose
(43,039 posts)But maybe he has banished them from his private rooms? I wouldn't be surprised.
But it would mean he has to clean up after himself, and we all know that ain't happening.
Disaffected
(6,707 posts)He has private areas where no one is allowed. Probably a bunch of incriminating stuff in there having to do with Epstein, Poutin, secret bribe/business deals etc. etc.
underpants
(197,816 posts)He left clothes and food wrappers on the floor.
He and Melania sleep in separate rooms.
Oh, I doing think he bathes regularly, certainly not daily. He gets his hair and brush out right so he leaves it.

The formal dining room is where the state dinners take place, he never goes in there. There are no TVs in the formal dining room.

If you haven't heard a rumor by 5:00, start one. Make them talk about it.

Figarosmom
(14,727 posts)He just has that air about him. There's no way he would so much as pick up a fry off the floor (unless he was hungry) but throw away garbage? That'll be the day.
