The History behind the Donald Trump Small Hands

July 17, 2016 10:42 AM

Donald Trump often refers to Marco Rubio, the Junior Senator from Florida as "Little Marco". Last February, while talking to his supporters, Marco Rubio told them (apparently knowing it would bother Trump), "Trump is taller than me; he's like 6 ft 2 inch, which is why I don't understand why his hands are the size of someone who is 5 ft 2 inch." Then he joked, "Have you seen his hands? And you know what they say about men with small hands -- ". You cannot trust them!"

Trump never leaves derogatory remarks unanswered, and his sensitivity to the insult dates back decades. Days later, at a Republican debate, Trump fired back at Rubio, showing his hands to the audience he asked, "Look at those hands. Are those small hands? A losing candidate said I have small hands and asked his supporters about the meaning of small hands. Many years ago, Graydon Carter (the editor of Vanity Fair) once said that to me. But, since then every person I meet they say I have great hands, I have strong hands, my hands are fine and normal."

The size of Trump's hands has been a recurring joke. Recently, a pun ad declared: "needs "a president who can grasp the complexity of the world and hold off the decline of a great nation."
