Guess who we saw at the circus tonight?→[More:]Oh yes. We heard someone telling the couple next to us that Donald was in the house, and I look over and OMG BAD HAIR.
It's not that Donald's like, structurally unattractive. He probably started out as a cute kid, too, and somewhere along the line he took a path that brought him through the Ugly Forest. If he had a kinder face, smiled more, and didn't have such a beady cold stare, he'd be much more appealing. And, of course, the weird combover/rug would have to go. What's up with that hair? I know he's powerful and all, but you'd think someone would have the nerve to tell him.
Like I said on the picture, the hair looks AMAZING in person. It's clear that it's some sort of combover, but you can't tell where the hair is coming from or where it's going!
Yeah, I agree with Miko. If it weren't for the hair, he'd look absolutely normal -- like his nephew, say. Or his dad's sorta Howard Hughes thing goin' on.
I refuse to believe that the hair is natural. It must be some kind of weave structurally enhanced in a manner similar to the Bird's Nest. It can also serve as a flotation device in the event of a water landing.
Ok, I used my terrible photoshop skillz on that photo to see what Trump would look like if he got a haircut and left the top bald instead of doing the combover. I think it's a marked improvement. What do you think?
I vaguely recall reading several years ago that The Donald is evidently quite aware that his hair is viewed as ludicrous by lesser mortals, but that he likes it that way anyway. One of the wives (Marla?) even styled it for him personally.
Yeah, I heard the same thing as scody. It's like how Conan O'Brien purposely picked his wardrobe and stage design to make him look like a giant - it's all about stage presence for The Trump.
