If there was a Nobel prize for closing an umbrella Donald Trump would have lost that too – 13 brolly good responses
That cognitive test that Donald Trump is constantly wanging on about clearly doesn’t involve a task involving closing an open umbrella.
Because if it did the American president – furious last week that he missed out on the Nobel peace prize – would fail. Bigly.
We say this after this clip of him boarding Air Force One carrying a brolly went viral because, well, best have a watch for yourself.

If Joe Biden could not close his umbrella there would have been roughly 1,000 think pieces in the newspapers of America questioning whether he was capable of discharging the duties of President of the United States. https://t.co/KVIbRqJnG3

AN UMBRELLA MADE IN CHINA HAS DEFEATED OUR PRESIDENT. AMERICANS ARE IN SHOCK. (MANY ARE SCREAMING IN HORROR.) BUT I, GAVIN C. NEWSOM, CAN CLOSE MY OWN UMBRELLA. I ONCE CLOSED THREE UMBRELLAS SIMULTANEOUSLY. WHILE IT WAS STILL RAINING! CHOOSE STRENGTH. — GCN (“C” IS FOR CLOSER.) https://t.co/Ph4UPtXr89

He is in his second term and still gets regularly beaten by umbrellas. I find his golf boasts even harder to believe now.
