President Trump Awkwardly Snubbed a Kid in a Dinosaur Outfit

Does Donald Trump have a secret fear of kids in dinosaur suits?

In a White House (PR) tradition, Donald Trump welcomed kids on Halloween who had come to trick-or-treat the POTUS (President of the United States) and FLOTUS (First Lady of the United States).

But, as with all good Trump stories, something weird and unexpected happened. Trump was divvying up the treats when a kid in a dinosaur suit suddenly changed his demeanour and he completely snubbed the poor child who innocently demanded snacks.

This was obviously another great excuse for Twitter to roast the living daylights out of Trump.

He's had trouble with guys named Rex.

But: PLOT TWIST. One Tweeter pointed out that it might be due to the fact that two months earlier, a horde of human-dinosaurs descended on Washington to protest against a decision he made to slash a budget.

Trump is facing intense criticism at the moment for an FBI investigation that is looking into Russia's alleged involvement in the 2016 election. As a result of the investigation, former Chairman of Trump's election campaign, Paul Manafort, has been charged with money laundering and conspiracy against the United States.

A former Trump campaign aide, George Papadopolous, also admitted to the FBI earlier this month that he lied to them. When asked when he approached a London professor who had "thousands of emails" damaging to Hillary Clinton's campaign, he told the FBI it was before joining Trump's election campaign. He has since admitted it was, indeed, after joining Trump's election campaign.

Trump took to Twitter to air his statement.

The Fake News is working overtime. As Paul Manaforts lawyer said, there was "no collusion" and events mentioned took place long before he...

....came to the campaign. Few people knew the young, low level volunteer named George, who has already proven to be a liar. Check the DEMS!

Despite the allegations, Trump will jet off to Japan next week where he's said to be entertained by Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen singer, Piko Taro, and will play golf with professional golfer, Hideki Matsuyama.

We'll just leave this earworm here to infect you for the rest of the week.
