Scavenger Hunt, Part II: Trump in Pictures, Continued

As readers will recall, we launched a scavenger hunt for readers a week ago. There's been a bit of a pause in sharing the results because we got a lot of responses, and it took time to sort them all. In addition, we decided we made an error in the one entry we've already run, "Scavenger Hunt, Part I: Trump in Pictures." We limited it to just 10 images, in the interest of keeping the piece from getting too long or getting data-intensive. However, we flatter ourselves that, one day, the archives of this site might be a resource for enterprising historians or political scientists. And wouldn't it be nice for them to have a fairly comprehensive list of the definitive photos of the Trump years? So, we are going to add another 10 images to the list, which will mean much better coverage. And with that explanation out of the way, here we go:

G.W. in Eden Prairie, MN, writes: In my opinion, this epitomizes the absolute shallowness of Trump and the entire MAGA movement.

BTW, what is the proper flag etiquette when using it to beat Capitol cops? Also, if one is using the flag to cover one's face when sacking our nation's Capitol, should the blue field be facing left or right? I can never get that straight.

J.G. in Chantilly, VA, writes: It was Trump who coined the term "shit**le country." Little did he know he was speaking about Mar-a-Lago.

Note that there's still time to submit suggestions for the other seven scavenger hunt questions we asked:

  1. Something that would make a terrible Christmas gift for Joe Biden. (Submit here)
  2. A book that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell would never, ever read. (Submit here)
  3. A t-shirt that would be very apropos for Chief Justice John Roberts to wear. (Submit here)
  4. The wisest, most insightful, or most pithy quote ever to be uttered by a politician or political figure (need not be limited to Americans). (Submit here)
  5. The worst bumper sticker, button, yard sign or other campaign-related ephemera in U.S. history. (Submit here)
  6. A portrayal of a key figure in U.S. history—image, song, verse, book, etc.—that is even more ridiculous than Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. (Submit here)
  7. This isn't exactly a scavenger hunt type question, but we're going with it anyhow. Finish this joke: "Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis and Hillary Clinton walk into a bar..." (Submit here)

Tomorrow, we'll unveil the Biden Christmas gifts. (Z)
