My question is what would be his reaction, rage, just sobs, walks away?

Red faced, he'd point his finger and start screaming "someone get that man!" over and over, until he was screeching, even well after the guy is on the floor in cuffs.

I always wondered where the Secret Service was in all that and why they didn't take that guy the gently caress out at about halfway before the second toss. It will never be less than hilarious, though.

Basically none. He already had a Fox show for years before the game came out I think.

The single easiest way to piss off a bald eagle is to let it see you trying to reach behind it. They have almost 360-degree vision, and if they lose sight of you in that direction, it freaks them the gently caress out.

It is almost certain that Trump was told that, and he just didn't listen. It's the one thing he needed to know, and it's why the perch was angled on his desk so the bird could see him and the camera at the same time.

The bullshit part of this is their willingness to help him pretend to be another one of Trump’s victims. He’s been doing shady poo poo for Trump for years, and personally threatening people via email or by sending goons. He is a loving villain, just one of those sniveling lesser villains that serves the main guy.

Seriously. He was the smuggest piece of poo poo imaginable for decades and acted with nothing but proud disdain for the law, society, and ethics. There should be zero sympathy for him. His sob story routine should be mocked. At least have the courage to own your loving villainy.

I mean fucker won't listen to anyone so of course he didn't listen to how you don't agitate the eagle. It's never given him any negative consequences in the past to ignore everyone, after all. He didn't bother to consider that this time he could've lost some loving fingers because that eagle doesn't give a poo poo that you're rich and powerful.

This is also reminding me of a great image of someone who found the most majestic way to ruin his truck, he was up in Alaska and had a bunch of fish guts in something in the bed and whoops like ten Bald Eagles landed on it while he was in a WalMart or something and they absolutely hosed the exterior between scratching the paint up and monster bird shits.
