And the costume department might learn how to hem pants. If he didn't have shoes on he'd have to shuffle those pants are so long.

It looks particularly bad in this photo.

What a freakshow. Dresses like a hobo.

I got in a bit of trouble on a business trip near Niagara Falls years ago. We had a free Friday so the guys told us to go check out the Falls, they said see it from the Canadian viewpoint. So I respond, 'what we each drink of six pack of Molsen before going?' Literally stares for five seconds.

Are there no tailors or hair stylists in the White House? Ones that aren’t blind, I mean.

Or, a hairdresser. Is that a hair-covered newsboy cap he's wearing?

Good Gawd, what a fucking embarrassment.

Ever since he started campaigning, you could tell that was the case with his wardrobe. No doubt his clothes are expensive. But also no doubt he buys them off the rack and never has them altered.

GQ took note of this in the general campaign, and did a very nice (and polite) makeover via Photoshop, showing exactly where each nip and tuck in the garments would flatter his extensive figure.

The Mad King is incredibly vain -- we have many indications of that, including his "slimming" necktie length and ridiculous hair. He boasts of financial resources that would allow him the best tailors of bespoke suits and shirts, not to mention the services of the finest hairdressers and makeup artists.

Instead he looks like what I said, a self-deluded old man. His "magic mirror" lies to him and shows him as the virile young stud of Queens, New York, age 30.

the tailor would then know the real measurements - keeping secrets is what he tries to do best.

in casual clothes. Everyone else looks more relaxed, and usually better but not him. He looks stiff, like he can’t bend any of his joints.
