As of yesterday’s press conference, you’ll notice that Trump’s unique hair color has been updated to a more statesman like silver. Reason - unknown. An uncharitable person, such as myself, might dismiss it as his latest move to manipulate the masses. He’s working so hard! He’s going gray with stress!

I’m convinced. Trump is the president for me.\*

\*Like I have a choice in the matter.

The problem is, Trump needs more gray below his scalp, not on it!

Maybe he uses _Just for Trump_, the hair treatment that _gradually_ uncolors your hair to its natural grey.

I’m looking at his press conference right now and he’s back to his normal rainbow of yellow-orange tones.

For the record, Trump had brown hair when he was younger. He was not a blond.

Would orange poster paint be glamorous enough? If he avoids rainfall?

Maybe all that time in a tanning bed bleaches out his hair?

When he first began the daily press conferences (read: campaign commercials), I noticed his fakey tan seemed more pronounced, because his white eyes were almost glow in the dark.

And I got pissed off, because people are DYING, and Trumpster had the time to indulge in his very weird little vanity.

To be fair, most salons recommend using a lighter color as you gray. Something about skin tone changing . . . although that might not apply here.

Everything about Trump is fake, and always has been. He was a fake business person, and he’s a fake president. If he doesn’t indulge in vanity, then there’s really nothing else for him to do.
