What President Has NOT Given Someone the Finger in Public?
I mean, isn't that a common thing for a POTUS to do? Surely we can find photos of other Presidents saying "Fuck You!" and flipping someone off. Right?
...later:
I couldn't find any other examples than Donald J. Trump. Odd, isn't it? You'd think that it would happen all the time. How about that?

A vice president can get in on the action, too.
I remember. VP, though, not President. Nelson Rockefeller. Never did amount to much, though.

And of the other three Presidents who have won the Nobel Peace Prize.
from taking place. I happen to believe some of the disinhibition we see now is, in part, that he’s showing the effects of a minor stroke (or swarm of strokes) that occurred in the last 6-18 months. This has exacerbated and accelerated his physical decline as well as some underlying age-related cognitive decline and a wee little touch of vascular dementia. 
When he flipped off that American worker it just captured so well how he really feels about regular, normal, working people in this country and elsewhere for that matter. He absolutely hates - hates - working people. We are of NO use to him unless we are waving little T-flags DPRK-style with tears running down our faces.
I think we should frame this with purpose as Donald, saying “Fuck You” to an American auto worker and giving us all the bird. If we can’t message and capitalize on an American President spitting “Fuck You” at an American auto worker just trying to get through a shift at work then what the hell are we doing?
Now I’m off to see if leadership have successfully communicated anything like this on the matter.
