Man who refers to himself as an ‘alpha-male’ actually just a dickhead
A man from Rochdale who refers to himself as an ‘alpha-male’ is in fact just a bit of a dickead sources have revealed.

when a participant fainted and several officials on hand rushed over.
-- Not Trump, however, who, after turning to look at the fallen man, stood a few feet away at the Resolute Desk with his back to the action, wearing an indifferent expression.
This was pointedly reflected in news photos that instantly went viral.
