I’m putting this in GQ because I want to keep it factual, or at least out of the pit, and I’d appreciate help with this.
I suspect the president almost *has *to be gaining weight given that he doesn’t exercise loves fast food doesn’t sleep much
and just had the stress of a major life change. more than one, really, since the presidency is a new job *and *a new place to live. stress seems to have caused other presidents to go gray.
he doesn’t have to release any health information, apparently, and photos are subjective. but it sure looks like he is fatter.
we can measure the distance to the moon, or the sun, or the next galaxy, isn’t there a way to know if he is gaining weight?
How has his eating and exercise habits changed since he took office? He is playing a lot of golf now, and he used to eat at fancy restaurants quite often in the past. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was gaining weight, but I didn’t consider him all that slim or fit before he became president.
As I recall, his doctor said he was in the best health possible - that no person alive could match his physical makeup, and all his tests came back A++++++.
So, he’s probably just putting on a huge amount of muscle, which just happens to make him look like he’s fat.
He’s been a tub of lard for years. He might be a bit lardier now, or he might not; it’s hardly material.
I do note that since his election he has been wearing his ties longer and longer; they’re practically down to his knees now. This may be an attempt to look taller, and therefore less fat. The orange spray-job may also be an attempt to distract attention from other physical characteristics.
Yeah he really should have the person who gave him that advice executed. He looks like a teenage boy going to his first jack and tie function with the length he sports. Of said teenage boy before his Dad fixes it for him.
I doubt that he takes tailoring advice. He’s obviously a man who could afford a tailor, yet he wears suits that fit him like a crumpled paper bag and, as noted, ties that are in danger of tripping him up.
I’d say he displays a commendable indifference to such trivia as fashion and appearance, were it not for the fact that his hair-constructing and skin-colouring regime must consume many hours, and probably a selection of chemicals that are banned by the Geneva Conventions. So he’s a walking contradiction in this respect (as in so many others).
When you tie your tie so that the broad end hangs down unusually far, the corollary is the the narrow end rides unusually high. This may mean that it’s not hanging down far enough to pass through the fabric loop that would help to hold it flush with the longer half of the tie, or it only just passes through and will easily come out if the tie is disturbed by, e.g., a gust of wind, careering around a corner or an over-enthusiastic bout of cossack dancing. This leaves the short end flapping around independently of the long end. Social ruin, my dear!
To avoid this sartorial faux pas, Trump uses adhesive tape to stick the short end of the tie to the back of the longer end.
