Use goggles in the sun bed much?
The media would if it were Biden or Pres Obama. They went hypervigilant over Obama's tan suit, grey poupon, & something else.. was it arugula?

(164 posts)Folks,
Trump doesn't look well. I remember how President Obama showed his age during the period of office, but he still has a spring in his step. Trump just looks tired, unwell and irritated a lot of the time.
One lesson that Trump might have learned is that the power of the office carries weighty responsibilities. If he hasn't learned it in his mind, then maybe his body has learned it.

(63,221 posts)If he didn't have that spray tan on, I would say he looked close to death. At least I hope so. What a repulsive creature! He makes my skin crawl.
Just the sight of him fills me with hostility and unbearable rage. I am feeling very stabby right now.

(63,221 posts)I can't help myself. I know it's wrong, but I just have this immediate impulse whenever I see him. I cannot stand the sight of him and I want him to disappear from the face of the earth. It's not like I am actually going to do anything. It's just a fantasy.

(30,741 posts)I thought it might be a regional colloquialism or a typo. I understand what you are feeling. Most of the world feels something similar.
When I see him on TV, I look away. I can't stand his face either.
None of us are going to do anything. We will wait until November, vote, GOTV and fight like hell if they try to steal it.

(662 posts)Yes, the press should comment on Trump's appearance (which is horrid) but
Those pupils are not the size of pie tins.

I had to quit watching the network news because they show so many clips of him talking

No wonder he and the first nude don't share a bedroom

(50,557 posts)...before or after he did his makeup? I swear, there are 11-year-old girls with shoeboxes full of dollar store cosmetics whose makeup looked better than Trumps the first time they did it.
Solly Mack
(90,767 posts)how much worse must you look before the hideous orange raccoon make-up to think you look better with it?
Think about it. Trump's ego tells him he looks better as an oompa loompa reject than he does au naturel (his natural state sans make-up).
