I think I can smell the picture': Trump's stained suit collar goes viral


Most commentary focused on this being the first time a president has been charged with a crime. One eagle-eyed observer zeroed in on a more minute detail: Trump’s suit jacket. Specifically, stains around his collar.

The internet thinks it’s both gross and hilarious. “I think I can smell the picture,” joked @EricVictorino.

Derek Guy appears to have first noticed the soiled ring around the collar of Trump’s jacket. Guy is a menswear writer and founder of Put This On, a “blog about dressing like a grownup.” You may have heard of him when his tweets inexplicably ended up all over the timeline earlier this year.

In Guy’s opinion, the stain on Trump’s jacket “appears to be from cosmetics.” If so, he said that the stain is oil-based.

“Suits should always be dry-cleaned, but oil-based stains will require careful removal,” Guy tweeted, adding, “Don’t wear stained suit jackets when appearing in court.” (The only exception to not wearing stained clothing to court is if you’re Dustin Hoffman in Runaway Jury.)

I didn't see it at first... I was looking at the shirt collar. The suit coat collar? Gross.

I'd hate to stand next to him.

Probably smells like someone stuffed a dead fish into a tub of cottage cheese, and left it sitting in the sun for a few days.

Also hair dyes and hairspray products. So little self-awareness.
