      Nothing wrong with a hair transplant imo. Hair loss is cruel and if you have the means to get the surgery you should go for it

      It’s like max 10 grand to get your hair back, can’t even buy a car for that

        The issue isn’t that he got a hair transplant, the issue is that, if someone is lying about something as inconsequential as that, you can’t trust a word they say. Granted, it’s not even in the top ten reasons to not trust Trump, but it’s a reason nonetheless.

          I guarantee if he admitted he had a transplant the above comment would be the same. It’s not inconsequential…there is a reason lots of people people go to Istanbul for months to get the surgery in secret. For some reason it’s not socially acceptable yet and I think it’s bullshit

          I think nobody running for president would admit such surgery. Many voters would label you insecure

          If Biden had a hair transplant would he admit it? Just playing devils advocate here

        I’m all for a positive self imagine but hair loss is completely natural. Unless you’re living in the world where you deluded yourself into thinking you can be 18 forever just be you. Loving yourself is the first step in being attractive.

              No, I didn’t realize that that comment would be insulting to people who suffer from gender dysmorphia. I consider “cosmetic” surgeries like breast reductions/enhancements or hair removal/transplants to be gender affirming care, because it’s more accurate.

              I genuinely don’t understand how that might be considered controversial or insulting.

                Trump, a vain pustule of a human being who never misses an opportunity to denigrate and insult people’s looks and disabilities, getting a fluorescent orange comb-around with the magic of medical science is not the same thing, you know it, I know it, that dumb fuck knows it. You’re just intentionally dragging people who genuinely suffer in their own bodies down to trump’s septic tank because I guess you hate transfolk that much.

                  I’m still pretty confused here. I know the original thread was about how ridiculous Trump looks, but the comment I was replying to was only about hair transplants.

                  Is it because I’m calling it gender-affirming surgery?

            by itself it’s not undignified at all.

            the person who insults and denigrates everyone for things that are far beyond their control (making mocking a reporter with disability for example) - and then tries to appear verile and masculine by smearing 9" sideburns around their head?

            Like whoa, weren’t conservatives against the longhairs? Haha and also, don, donny, donny boy, jeeze, have a modicum of self respect for fuck’s sake. We all know it’s a joke. You’re the only one you’re doing all this labor for.

          For real I started going bald at 25, I’m not out here spending used car money to chase youth… I’m old! Plus it saves a lot of money on haircuts when you just shave it and you can spend that money on shit that matters.

        it’s less the transplants and more the way he styles the mass.

        I’m losing my hair. I’ve decided the side effects and drug costs aren’t worth the vanity.

        Had a friend who lost all his hair between freshman and sophomore year of college, and I’ve always felt that it did nothing to reduce his masculinity or mojo, so perhaps it’s not that big of a deal. Every day more of my hair falls out and you know what, I’m ok with that. I’m in my 40s. It’ll be ok.

        YMMV, but Trump’s obsession with insulting others means he’s fair game to me if I want to lampoon his folicular infrastructure. I hope you don’t think less of me for it.

        I don’t fault him for that. Getting old sucks, and it affects people differently. Many get bigger without much effort and there may be underlying conditions that limit ones ability to exercise sufficiently. I’m okay with Trump being heavy, lying about it egregiously is a different story.

        ? did you mean goofy?

        Either way, I’d just wonder what you think this means - like overly styled? every politician is gonna have the makeup and hair people hovering around, sure… but donny’s sculpting 9"s of sideburns as hair around the crown of his head. I wouldn’t call that a goody ass haircut, I’d call it copium and mass delusion on the part of his marks.

        the rest is spot on.

    I just assume anyone who spends most of their time under immense public scrutiny would use at a minimum a very light amount of makeup. It’s basically undetectable but makes a noticable difference in how you are perceived.
