Man and Superman

The New York Times reports on a Donald Trump* scheme:

In several phone calls last weekend from the presidential suite at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, Mr. Trump shared an idea he was considering: When he left the hospital, he wanted to appear frail at first when people saw him, according to people with knowledge of the conversations. But underneath his button-down dress shirt, he would wear a Superman T-shirt, which he would reveal as a symbol of strength when he ripped open the top layer. He ultimately did not go ahead with the stunt.

I think the "S" would be for "Superspreader Man."

The sight of Trump in a t-shirt is not only something that nobody (including Melania) wants to see, but would refute his later claim to be in perfect physical health.

It’s bad enough seeing him in his golf togs. A t-shirt — I think I’d have to bleach my eyes.
