You’ve probably wondered when you look at failed one-term, twice-impeached and indicted former president Donald Trump what the deal is with his hair. Is it a toupee? A weave? Does he spend hours combing it over to make it look like he has a bird’s nest atop his skull?
Those questions and others have been asked for years, with the New York Post reporting a few years ago:
President Trump’s bizarre hairdo is the result of scalp-reduction surgery, careful styling held in place by strong hairspray — and too much cheap dye, according to a new book.
[…]
Scalp reduction — also known as alopecia reduction — is a procedure in which a surgeon removes a man’s bald spot, then sews the more hirsute skin back together.
Scalp reduction, careful styling, and hairspray.
That leads us to this photo shared on Twitter by Ron Filipkowski:
Be sure and notice the bad application of makeup, too, especially at the neck and around the ears. Wouldn’t it just be easier to go with what you’ve got and not spend hours every day trying to look like someone you aren’t?
But of course this is a symptom of a larger condition with Trump: Malignant narcissism and excessive self-absorption. He hates himself, so he has to try and pretend he’s someone else. Only then will people accept and love him, even though he’s a pathetic loser.
Social media had a field day with the photo.
