Impeach! The Salt and Pepper Shakers Are Too Big!

Democrats and media have gone after President Donald Trump for virtually anything and everything since he was elected, from his liking two scoops of ice cream and his love of fast food to his tweets.

They’re desperate to find the smoking gun that will enable them to impeach him.

And now, we think they’ve finally found it.

Trump’s salt and pepper shakers are too big.

No, really.

James Pasley of the Business Insider broke this huge story.

Trump's salt and pepper shakers tower over everyone else's. Obama, Bush, and Clinton used the same...
President Donald Trump's salt and pepper shakers often dwarf everyone else's. His most recent predecessors had shakers the same size as everyone else.

Holy shit. I thought the story was a joke when I saw the headline but I should’ve realized by now that the dopes in the media like James will write about anything

Pasley actually goes out of his way to research and pull pictures of Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton, to note that their salt and pepper shakers were the same size as those of their guests. Of course, none of those pictures he produces was of a formal dinner similar to the one in the Trump picture.

But more importantly, so what? Who cares about salt and pepper shakers?

What is that supposed to prove? Trump likes more salt and pepper?

Meanwhile, it’s not like there are any important stories to cover like a huge pedophile ring run by a man connected to all kinds of powerful people. Or Democrats trying to impeach a president because they’re upset that he beat them in the election.

Some of us spend our energies trying to expose the darkest corners of our planet, others investigate the size of salt and pepper shakers...

They even are concerned that his salt and pepper are further apart in one picture while the other ones are close together.

John Borjas provides the simple answer that Pasley missed in all his research (naturally).

If using individual salt and pepper shakers, proper etiquette for formal settings on a rectangular table calls for smaller shakers to be above the charger plate of individuals and larger ones in the center (where POTUS is). Nice try trolls. #LearnYourselfSomething

Be back in a few minutes. Headed to the store to get the biggest salt and pepper set I can find for my place at the table! :bolt:

I guess no one at that table knows how to say " Pass the salt, please", "pass the pepper please". If every 4th person had the shakers in front of them and could pass them to the person on either side of them, then shaker size would be meaningless unless one went empty.

So Trump has bigger ones that everyone else at the table. We already knew that! :clap::clap::clap:

I would have said, "How stupid can you get?" but I never cease to be amazed.

First off I'd be tea totally lost at a formal dinner like posted above. The King & Queen place sitting should stand out as obvious IMHO. I've never sat down to a dinner where there were more than 2 pair of S&P shakers one on each end of the table. And I was always lead to believe that the person with the most stature should be sat at the head of the table, which Trump obviously isn't.

If the leftist media have nothing of consequence to bitch about, they'll find something.
This is a fine example.
