THE award for expression of the week goes to Chelsea’s Cole Palmer. There he was on the victors’ platform with his teammates after winning the Club World Cup in New Jersey on Sunday.

Just after the trophy was handed over, a horrified Palmer spied President Donald Trump standing centre stage, joining in the bouncy-bouncy dance footballers and toddlers love. The look on Cole’s face was priceless. If you had to attach a speech bubble, “What the FLOTUS?” would do.

Like many before him, Cole had discovered that Donald J Trump has a neck like Mike Tyson and it is 100% brass. He simply doesn’t do embarrassment. A strange mix of hypersensitivity and shamelessness, he will just carry on regardless. It’s quite a gift. Indict him, convict him, stage a walkout in Congress, pack the National Mall with protesters, hire a plane and trail an insult across the skies, he will not blush.

There is only one occasion when he nearly succumbed, and that was when President Obama teased him mercilessly at the 2011 White House Correspondents' dinner. Some say this was the moment Trump decided to run for president. Others dispute the claim. He certainly looked furious to a degree not seen in public before or since.
