Trump - seriously, What's with the hat? ...not a hat-shaming thread

[underpants]

*please see non hat-shaming disclosure at bottom

I understand that this is an effort to avoid a bad photo op.
The tie-less blazer is a whole other question. You have to be able to do the slacks/jeans (oh god not Mom Jeans - the O Man will never live that down) and shirt look. See O'Malley, that guy looks GOOD in his clothes. But let's keep this a a higher level....

I don't subscribe to "looking Presidential" assessments. That pure time filler on camera nonsense.

Trump is making appearances wearing a baseball cap. It has his slogan but you can put that on the podium and engulf the screen with it in banners. A baseball cap? It SCREAMS "I have goofy hair". How can people take him seriously? He is that vain? That self unassured? Mr. Tough Guy?



He looks ridiculous.


*i have nothing against people wearing hats. I used to have a don't-leave-home-without-it hat, several over the years, but that was when I wore a younger man's clothes specifically jeans, shorts, and t-shirts.... to work. I just stopped wearing hats. Hell I don't even wear a hat when I play golf and I am about the only person on the course without a hat - mostly baseball caps.

1. I think it's to hide his hair thing in public

It protects against anyone giving him a noogie or a light breeze screwing up his "hair".

[monmouth4]

2. Or, he just had plugs inserted for the campaign trail and election...LOL...n/t

[underpants]

3. So (forgive me) no Rose Garden speeches?

Is there a weathervane calculation used?


--- I forgot to put that in the original post.

4. He's trying to remind people of Michael Moore.

[olddots]

5. it gives him NASCAR cred

he is such s working class hero .

[underpants]

13. Funny

<--- not meant ironically

[Chellee]

6. I think it's his attempt to look like an average guy.

It fails spectacularly,because the average guy doesn't talk about his money, his property, and himself. Every. Single. Second.

But, I think that's what it is. He thinks it makes him look like one of us.

[Brother Buzz]

9. I'm a slouch when it comes to fashion...

but even I know the gimme cap doesn't work with the suit. He thinks he can pull if off if he removes the tie. Fail.

[underpants]

17. Bingo

I've been in many varied social setting and anyone trying to pull that off smells of hair plugs or some weird teddy bear complex (the hat).

7. Fooling the rubes.

He's a billionaire one-percenter, but he uses his wardrobe to help him play the role of populist.

"Oh look, he's wearing a trucker's hat. He's One Of Us!"

[TexasBushwhacker]

15. I agree

Next he's going to give up the helicopter for a monster truck.

8. Wearing a baseball cap is not Presidential and unless you are on a golf course, or taking a walk on

A sunny day baseball caps are not dignified. Trump looks like a fool in his hat.

But we all know he wears it because he doesn't want to expose his creative bald spot covering hairdo as it's hilarious to look at.

[CTyankee]

10. who cares about his cap? It's just a diversion from the real issues...

[underpants]

11. Ah BUT with Trump their are no issues

He has 1 policy on his website. One. And it's immigration. It's all about him and trash talking.

[CTyankee]

19. oh, I wouldn't bother to go to his website. Why?

[underpants]

12. He does look ridiculous

[TheCowsCameHome]

14. It should read "I'm With Stupid"

[malaise]

16. He's genuinely afraid of photos of the wind sending the rug in all directions

He is very insecure about his hair.

Here's why

[underpants]

18. Clearly he is

[malaise]

20. Enjoy

22. I"ve seen photo shopped pictures of him with the top of his head shinning

really not sure if they were photo shopped or an in opportune time photo

At any rate he's plastic

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

[malaise]
