Seriously, what the hell is with this guy’s hair?

It’s definitely a wicked comb-over, but it appears to defy gravity and all known laws of physics.

Is it some kind of joke? A challenge, perhaps? Maybe he’ll give big money to whoever is brave enough to say to him, “Mr. Trump, for the love of all that is holy, please remove that dead weasel from your head.”

Has anyone ever seen him without this 'do?

He can certainly afford a transplant if he doesn’t like the nugget look. Seriously…what is he thinking?

It’s his hair…and it’s real. He’s worn it like that for decades, it just seems to be getting longer and more unruly these days. He even pulled it back for Larry King to examine when he was King’s show around the end of The Apprentice.

It’s sort of like Bill Gates. You figure these guys are richer than rich, so why don’t they have good hair?

He got power, money, prestige, and hot-and-cold running babes. What does he care whether people like his hair? 😛

There was an episode of The Apprentice where he was outside on a windy day and his hair was blowing all over. He looked at the camera and said, “Well, I hope this proves it’s real.”

I think it’s a trick designed to confound his opponents. Kind of like going into a power meeting with a ketchup stain on your shirt, or seeds in your teeth, or no pants.

Not that I’ve done…er…
