Ex-GOP lawmaker describes Trump as smelling like a mix of armpits, ketchup and a butt

Over the years, there have been wide-spread rumors that Donald Trump has a certain signature aroma that has rarely been described as being good, which the former president has taken great offense at. On December 16, former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill. threw his take on this subject into the mix via a now viral social media post, writing, "I’m genuinely surprised how people close to Trump haven’t talked about the odor. It’s truly something to behold. Wear a mask if you can." And he doubled down on that in a recent interview on The MeidasTouch Network.

On the subject of a Trump spokesperson firing back at Kinzinger's claim with, “Adam Kinzinger farted on live TV and is an unemployed fraud," Kinzinger went in even harder.

Trying his hand at Smell-O-Vision, the former GOP lawmaker went into greater detail about the way Trump smells, saying, "It’s not good. The best way to describe it . . . take armpits, ketchup, a butt and makeup and put that all in a blender and bottle that as a cologne. That’s kind of that. I’ve been amazed that everybody is just kind of learning about this now."

I would imagine his diet could make him smell that way. From what I understand certain foods, like garlic, if consumed consistently for a period of time can make a person's sweat garlicky.

Insofar as I recall he eats fast food out of fear of being poisoned, chugs diet coke, and wears adult diapers, though the last one is rumor that is very likely true rather then well documented fact.

So with that diet and lifestyle in mind puzzle pieces start to come together.

He says it's out of fear of being poisoned, but he routinely tells incredibly obvious lies.

I think he just eats like the worlds most spoiled toddler because he wants to and picked the excuse with the most self-importance and bravado.
