Watch Bald Eagle Attack a Scared Donald Trump During TIME Photo Shoot
In the photo released from the shoot, Trump sits focused at his desk while the eagle, patriotically named Uncle Sam, is perched nearby.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump took part in a photoshoot for Time that included a pretty bold prop – a bald eagle that was not shy about flapping his wings, disturbing the peace and attacking his hair.
“How’s my hair look”, the former Apprentice star asked.
At another point in the photo shoot, Uncle Sam shook his feathers vociferously, slapping Trump upside the head in the process.
Watching Donald Trump getting attacked by a massive bald eagle is pretty satisfying stuff if I do say so myself. Yet he cozied up to the team led by photographer Martin Schoeller when the publication featured him over the summer.
File this one under the growing list of Trump classics.
Trump was a runner-up for Time’s 2015 Person of the Year award, which was also announced Wednesday.
Trump took it all in stride however, telling the Time team after the shoot; ‘What you will do for a cover – this bird is seriously risky but handsome’. The tweet comes after Trump called out the iconic magazine for not selecting him for the annual accolade.
