In Which Donald Trump Refuses to Share His Umbrella with Melania and Barron
You can't stand under my umbrella-ella-ella.

Today in "good lord what did he do this time?" President Donald Trump is being criticized for not holding an umbrella over his wife and son during a rainstorm, and instead hogging it all for himself.
POTUS, Melania Trump, and their son Barron were seen ascending the stairs to Air Force One, and not only did Melania and Barron not *have* umbrellas—Trump seemingly refused to share his in what was clearly bad weather. And, unsurprisingly, Twitter/the Universe was unimpressed.

There's speculation that Trump was trying to protect his hair from the elements, which, sure, but maybe not at the expense of his loved ones.
