Donald Trump watches his interviews with the sound off. Yep, nothing creepy about that.

Courtesy of Mediaite:  

During an interview with POLITICO’s Glenn Thrush, NBC’s Chuck Todd pondered some of the more striking observations he has made about Donald Trump after covering the mogul as much as he has. 

The wide-range interview covered a variety of topics, but when the president-elect came up, Todd said there were a few ticks he noticed about Trump where “[It] drives me crazy.” According to Todd, Trump is so concerned about his visual image that he will frequently watch clips of himself with the sound off. 

Todd quoted a source close to Trump who said that whenever the mogul finishes an interview, he’ll ask about how he looked, but not as much about how he sounded or what he said. 

“The amount of time he spends after the interview is over with the sound off — he wants to see what it all looked like. He will watch the whole thing on mute,” said Todd. “He’s a very, visual guy. He thinks this way, and look, it’s an important insight in just understanding him. The visual stuff is very real beyond just himself.”

Hey look, there is something that I have in common with Donald Trump.

I also turn off the sound when I see him on TV.

Maybe he hates the sound of his voice as much as I do.

The article suggests that the reason might be based on advice that Roger Ailes gave him as he used to also watch potential hosts give interviews with the sound off. Probably so he could imagine them saying things like "Oh Roger it's so big," or " I find a man with six chins and the body of Jabba the Hut to be such a turn on."

Personally I think it is because Trump is more concerned about the camera capturing an unflattering image of him, like this one:

Or this one:

Or this one:
Than he is that he might say something stupid.

Which of course explains every interview and tweet he has ever sent.

      Yeah. If he wore his belt shorter, it would jut out so much from his belly. He has to have it go long so that it has a chance to un-jut a bit.

    OMG, he is so fucking ugly, and that last pic makes me almost vomit. He wants to see what he looks like. He makes it a point. He must like what he sees b/c he's done nothing to lose weight and try lifting any of that fat through exercise. He must think that Melania loves being close to all those many pounds of fat. Maybe she sucks on his neck meat because there's nothing down below for a blow job.

    And now the imbecile is tweeting a mocking of CNN and NBC and praising Fox. Yesterday it was many hours before Fox even reported anything on the hacking retribution. They didn't report it because it wasn't pro-Trump, plus we KNOW they had to work at finding someone with any knowledge who could handle the story. He again sounds like a punkass kid in his tweeting. I so wish the press could say F-you and ignore Trump completely. But of course they can't. Oh, and of course Fox was rewarded by being let inside Mar a Lago's gates yesterday to show a golden room that will be used for the inauguration ball. All other times no one's gotten in, and Trump has stepped outside the gate to say anything. With the gold room always lit up behind him, natch.

It was not pretty, with a dead intern, some other unsavory news items and his very sudden departure from the area and very seldom return. He is not liked in this part of FL at all.

    Why is everybody so shocked by the bromance reach-arounds Trump has been giving broski Putin?

    Any man who would say this about his daughter is up for anything:

    “I don’t think Ivanka would do that [pose for nude photographs] inside the magazine,” Trump says, speaking for his daughter. “Although she does have a very nice figure. I’ve said that if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps, I would be dating her.”

      "auditioning?" Says it all, doesn't it. The US Cabinet is now some reality show to Trump, who is 'auditioning' people for what used to be very serious, demanding jobs. Now he's hiring Goldman Sachs, Exxon, and unqualified people in every spot, and most of them despise their agencies. Nice. Ryan won't even have to worry about that bathtub when Trump is done. The US will just be gone.

      The 'daddy's girl' attachment plays out in more families than most would guess. Once worked with a beautiful but bawdy young woman who loved to tell how she and her sister as teens walked around naked in the house. It would arouse their dad and put him in a real good mood so they could talk him into buying them things or let them stay out past their curfew. She said she had never had sex with him but had given him a blow job. I kept my distance after hearing that as it gave me the creeps being around someone like that.

    "Ahhh, I've got my pants off already," Stern groaned.

    Dropping his voice, Stern asked about how often Melania and Trump had sex and how good it was. "We have a great, great time," she said
    -First Whatever Melania Trump


    Creepy runs in the family. That's nasty.

    #NOTOURFIRSTLADY Melania Trump

    Mother Jones:
    The Trump Files: Donald and Melania's Creepy, Sex-Filled Interview With Howard Stern

    ...But that didn't stop Candidate Trump from going on Howard Stern's radio show and putting his then-girlfriend and now-wife Melania on air with the host for a bizarre, creepy, and totally misogynistic interview about life and sex with Trump.

    When Trump called in to Stern's show on November 9, 1999, the conversation turned to Melania ("a potential first lady," Trump said) and her looks. "Let me talk to that broad in your bed," Stern demanded. So Trump summoned Melania, who was apparently scantily clad and conveniently sitting nearby, to come to the phone. With Stern oozing his creepiest charm, things rapidly got weird.

    After demanding that Melania "put on your hottest outfit" for a Stern-Trump night on the town, Stern asked Melania what she was wearing right then. "Uh, not much," she replied.

    Stern pressed on: "Are you naked? Are you nude?" Melania laughed. "Almost," she said.

    "Ahhh, I've got my pants off already," Stern groaned.

    Dropping his voice, Stern asked about how often Melania and Trump had sex and how good it was. "We have a great, great time," she said, claiming that she and Donald did the deed "even more" than daily. "I can tell you need love," Stern told her. Other topics of the interview included whether Melania stole cash from Trump's wallet, what she wore to the beach, and her "very nice chest for a model."

    Trump apparently had no problems with Stern's racy questioning of his then girlfriend. "Oh man, she's naked there, isn't she?" Stern asked when Trump got back on the phone. "She is actually naked," Trump said. "It's a thing of beauty."

    In a version of the interview clipped by BuzzFeed News, Stern begged Trump to have sex with Melania on air to boost his ratings. "Wouldn't that be nice?" Trump replied. Someone in Stern's studio then launched into a crude impression of Melania having sex with Trump. "Please, Donald, don't put it there!" he cried in a fake accent as Stern's crew—and Trump—collapsed into laughter. The New York Post also reported that, during the interview, Trump told Stern he frequently "mentally" felt up Melania in public.
