Mar-a-Lago face is a terrible thing. The trumpford wives?

Funny enough, that hairstyle first makes me  
think of Sofia Vergara, who is Columbian.

Wow – thanks for the revelation, that these people were once _human beings_. The self-mutilation is so sad. I very nearly barf whenever one of them appears on the news – I’m not exaggerating. My wife knows we have to be careful about this (if, say CNN is on).

Then how am I supposed to transmit the letter “L” in morse code? Or the number “5”? Clearly a ploy by the “S” supremacists, trying to suppress other characters. Wait a second… S… Supremacists… S… suppress. So many S’s… coincidence? I think not.

Trump probably died during a meeting, but then it turned out he was just asleep.

D.C. plastic surgeon Anita Kulkarni has had to turn down an influx of newly arrived political insiders asking for “a more done look, like that Mar-a-Lago face.” The aesthetic didn’t fit her practice’s typical understated vibe, and these people wanted extra fillers and injections on top of already treated faces, which can be dangerous, she says.

Reminds me of French aristocrats demanding anal fistula surgery after Louis XIV had successful surgery for it.

And ironically, the Mar-a-Lago crowd is getting surgery _for_ an anal fistula.

Yes, in Magic Kingdom at Disney World.

All presidents are there, including Biden and Trump.

No idea if the Trumpbot snores, but I’m sure it smells much better than the real thing.

I keep seeing the same thing in recent photos of Dear Leader’s face, especially when at rest (such as snoozing during an Oval Office meeting): the right side of his face, most noticeably his mouth, is slumping. I’m betting he’s had at least one stroke.

I have seen it suggested somewhere that Trump’s handlers could be using Botox injections to shore up the drooping side of his face. Does anyone know if that’s a real thing that is done for stroke patients? (Edit: AI says yes indeed) Given what we know about Trump, I’d be very surprised if he’d let anyone inject botulinum toxin directly into his face but I suppose they could be telling him that it’s unicorn tears or concentrated sunlight or fuckin’ magnets or something.

I think botox does the exact opposite. It keeps the muscles from contracting.
