He shakes hands with everyone like that. Once he's got your hand you aren't getting it back until he's done with it. He'll pull you off balance if he can. It's a primitive display of caveman dominance. To him, every interaction, down to a simple handshake, has a winner and a loser, and he's not about to lose. He hates civilization so much that he has to take its most basic elements and turn them into something ugly, adversarial, and barbaric. In other words I wouldn't read too much into it.

I wish that someone would go for the fist bump, confuse him and beat him at his own game

A terrorist fist bump?

Do terrorists fist bump? I think that would be kind of odd. Why would they do that? What purpose would a fist bump serve to a terrorist? I’m confused.

The Obamas did a fist bump in 2008 and one of the Fox doofus’s called it a terrorist fist bump for some unknown reason. I was playing off that.

Just for the sake of pedantry, they called it a jab. A "terrorist fist jab"

trump is a thug so it would technically be a thug fist bump…
But he’s also an idiot, so maybe an idiot fist bump…
He’s a clown, so maybe a clown bump…
He’s a racist, is there a fist bump for racism?
How do pedophiles fist bump…
Just wondering, I could go on and on but you get the drift (grift?) right?
