Presidents without dogs

Do you know that Trump is the first President in 100 years that has not had a dog???

Now, Clintons were more cat people, but they had a dog also.

Obama’s had allergy issues but they DID find a breed to fit in.

I am HIGHLY suspicious of people who have NEVER had pets.

Joe and Jill Biden have two German Shepard rescues: Champ and Major. And honestly, I was not a great Biden fan until reading … before Joe Biden declared his candidacy, that they had these dogs.

Joe Biden and Major

I am beyond grateful that the Biden-Harris ticket are President-Vice-President Elect.

I hope things go smoothly in the transition.

Per social media, both Biden and Harris are both celebrating as well as extending an olive branch of let’s move foreward … ALL of us.

Does having a dog (or cat or pet) matter?

I kind of think it does as it shows an inclination to care about all others.

    I didn’t know about Trump being the only president for 100 years who didn’t have a dog but the more you think about it, the more logical it seems. Lack of empathy, humanity and no sense of the joy of sharing and learning.
    I, too, hope the transition goes smoothly and without dividing the country further. And at last a woman in office! In New Zealand, the Prime Minister, the Leader of the Opposition, the leader of the third party in Parliament, the Governor-General and over half the sitting MP’s are women. And all goes smoothly…

      I have liked what I’ve read about New Zealand’s PM! And I really like Kamala Harris. I think that she and Biden will govern well but I don’t think it will be a smooth start. Joe Biden has a good reputation for “working well with others”, but Trump is … well, he does not behave like an adult or someone who cares about anything other than himself so ???

      I think we need to let the voting recounts happen and some sort of investigation that satisfies most. If many people are left with the thought that there was fraud as Trump is tweeting at full blast, it will make the new government’s job even more difficult.

      And we have 2 1/2 months until inauguration…

        I find the American system quite frightening. The fact that the majority of people vote for someone doesn’t seem to mean they have been elected in the past and now there is a majority you have all this divisive bitterness and hatred fuelled by the baby in the White House! Talk about a bad loser!
        And so many people running around with not only guns, but assault rifles, must be a worry.
        I also like Kamala Harris and Biden seems quite a calm and logical person, so there is hope as long as a transition can happen without civil war!
