They didn't look like they wanted to shake his hand anyway.

Trump ignores two little Asian girls, but the white boys get a handshake.



Some keen-eyed news watchers caught this awkward, possibly racist moment just before Donald Trump delivered a statement on health care from the White House Blue Room on Monday, while joined by families who described themselves as "victims of Obamacare."

If you were watching closely, Trump preceded his remarks by going down the line to shake a little white boy's hand, then skipped the two little bewildered Asian girls like they're not standing directly in front of him, then reached out to shake the hands of two more little white boys. And everybody's smiling.




This is a pointed metaphor for something, right? Or perhaps just an asshole being his usual self.
