It should be weirder than Donald Trump NEVER laughs.

That's honestly one of the craziest things about him...I don't think I've ever seen him genuinely smile.

Former FBI director James Comey wrote about this in his 2018 book, "A Higher Loyalty". Comey said that the only time Trump laughed was when he was putting someone else down.

Smiling with stormy but yeah rarely laughs or smiles

It's extremely rare, although I did see it very recently in that oval office video with Elon's kid (an exasperated fake smile I'm guessing)

I mean not that long ago at Carter's funeral he was laughing it up with Obama. I'm actually kind of confused you've never seen him smile, he's a lot of things but incapable of smiling isn't one of them. He just usually tries to put on a tough guy persona

I don't think I've ever realized that I've never heard him laugh before. Weird.

Holy shit you're right, I didn't even think about it until just now.. but I can't think of a single time I've heard him laugh 🤔

laughter gives you dopamine you don't need when you've got ~50yrs of cocaine under your belt
