Trump Had a Severe Makeup Mishap at WH Christmas Party and He's Now an Absolute Laughing Stock

Angry Creamsicle, Comrade Cheetolino, Mango Mussolini, Agent Orange – these are just a few of the nicknames that Donald Trump has picked up along his presidential road. Trump may ethnically identify as “white”, but his skin is categorically and scathingly portrayed as orange.

When Trump was elected in 2016, succeeding former president Barack Obama, I remember references such as “orange is the new black”.

Now, it is painfully obvious that Trump wears makeup to get that orange glow.
However, the White House disagrees.

The official White House position on the issue, a “senior administration official” told the New York Times on the condition of anonymity, is that Trump’s tawny tincture is the result of “good genes.”

The phrase “good genes” echoes Trump himself, who brags a lot about his own and his family’s genes. Time even made a supercut of him talking about his “good genes.” And Trump can certainly be described as a “senior administration official.” Hmm.

The official also told the Times that the only cosmetic the president uses is a translucent powder he applies himself before TV appearances.

I have truly believed that from the Eighties, but I don't say it too often.

We have been taken over. Nobody who is a human being would act like republicans do. That's how you tell whether people are members of your own species.

Do they care about each other?

Republicans don't . Ergo, not human.

“The same rule applied to the Bronx Colors-brand face makeup from Switzerland that Trump slathered on — two full containers, one half full — even if it meant the housekeepers had to regularly bring new shirts from the pro shop because of the rust-colored stains on the collars.

I mean, we all understand and see around us the lovely variety of skin colors humans have. Although I've never seen anyone with orange skin, other than Trump.

I wonder if there's also a chance he's a bit color blind, and so he sees that orange as a lovely and (to him) natural looking tan.

Apparently all of his shirts end the day with a terrible case of orange ring-around-the-collar.

And apparently, each morning after he gets up, his bedsheets look like an orange Shroud of Turin.

tRump dragged out of the White House in his underwear only after having his head shaved and all makeup scrubbed off.

Let them all see his chewed bubblegum fat rolled chalk white lumpy dimpled jiggly blob with the brown stripe in his underwear (if he does wear adult diapers, that will do) where his crack should be, with his bald head. Let all of his trumpanzees see how dreamy and manly he really is as they quickly feel their vomit start to erupt.

Sorry if unwanted mental images flashed through anyone's mind.

haven't seized on this marketing gimmick. Either to plug the brand he is already using or to come up with some cheap brand you can sell on late-night TV. "You too can look like Donald Trump, with all his good genes!"

May get working on that myself. Make a fortune.

We will call them Trumpfaces.

Sun Dec 22, 2019, 12:21 AM
Dec 2019

she was white as a ghost, her hair was platinum blonde and her eyes were the lightest of blue. I honestly had never seen a person look like that before, she was the whitest person that I have seen in my life. I doubt that she can tan for more than four minutes at a time, even with SPF50+ lotion on her.

Trump is a really vain person, unlike that young woman who I observed as we were in a space near eachother. Trump likely has some skin ailment that comes with age and the life choices that he has made in his life. The clown makeup is his way of hiding his skin problems, and no one around him has the guts to tell him he looks rediculous. At least the young woman has what looks like healthy and uniformly colored (well, chalky-white) skin on the parts of her body that a person only sees in public situations.
