Mediaite reports:
President Donald Trump still won’t wear a mask in public, but he did take one conspicuous precaution when he recoiled from a handshake while disembarking from Marine One on his way to board Air Force One. On Saturday, Trump traveled to Cape Canaveral for the latest attempt at a joint Spacex Nasa launch, but it was the first leg of that trip that soared into the social media stratosphere when New York Times photographer Doug Mills snapped the exact moment that Trump recoiled from a proffered handshake.

*later on Twitter*
“Fake Photo! I did NOT refuse the Military Man’s handshake! He came up to me and said, ‘Sir, look how small my Hand is compared to yours! You have Very Big Hands, Sir. Also my 401K is up 50,000% thanks to you!’ The Big, Tough Military Man then started crying.”

I’m old enough to remember the months of @FoxNews coverage when @BarackObama saluted while boarding with a coffee up & how damaging & disrespectful they claimed that was to the institution of the presidency.
