So where's the White House dog?
This is another example of democrats giving a pass that they can't expect for themselves.
When the Clintons came into office they had an awesome cat named Socks. The republicans had a patriotic fit that those rotten Clintons didn't have the traditional pet that every American president has had since Adam met Eve and shamed them into getting a dog they didn't really want. It was during the shaming that Rush Limbaugh made his Chelsea joke on TV that she was indeed the official White House dog. Fortunately, that was the end of his small screen career, but that's how badly they were badgered.
When the Obama's entered office they had no pets at all that I recall, and the republicans were relentless in pointing out how un-American they were to not own a decent dog to run the grounds like their patriotic predecessors. The subsequent relentless shaming led to the adoption of Bo The Water Dog, a companion I'm sure the Obama's love, but probably hadn't considered until republicans expressed their distrust of a president without a dog.
Now I wonder, where's Trump's Great American Canine? Why aren't key democrats and liberal media "hounding" him persistently about his hatred of American values? I think it's petty, sure, but there's no reason to let him off the hook that the GOP so skillfully baits for every democratic president. Besides, it'd be interesting to see what kind of dog he chooses for his potential abuse. My guess is a Russian Wolfhound. More likely, he'll blame Melania's "allergies".
On edit:
This isn't really about wanting Trump to get a dog, nor was that the goal of republicans when they shamed the Clintons and Obamas for not having one. The key word here is "shaming".

seeing them makes me smile! 
Me too.
because it would be a shame if he had one, the poor dog.
