POLITICS Trump Had a Major Makeup Malfunction Today and He's Now the Laughing Stock of Social Media

Donald Trump’s face is making America do a double take again. Or a triple take?

Regardless, we are all laughing our asses off.

On Friday, photographer William Moon, who posts his photos on the Twitter account @photowhitehouse, captured a photo of the president walking across the South Lawn of the White House after returning from Charlotte, North Carolina, and boy is it unsettling.

You’ll immediately notice that Trump’s face is glowing orange. I’m talking Big Tangerine Energy here. Definitely more bronzed than usual. Not only is his face clearly covered in tinted makeup or tanner of some sort, but there’s also clear line where the makeup ends. Trump’s hair is blown back a bit, and his pale scalp halo hovers above what looks like an orange mask.

Then again, maybe Trump looks at this and sees a handsome young Adonis.

Jack Nicholson's Joker -- also gaudily face-painted -- has a phrase he uses more than once: "Did you ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?"

Not exactly the same... but a sociopath, ridiculous face-paint, dancing, natural light source.

I had forgotten that line but it fallls in the same vein of what Moon said. Creepy and depraved.

how to apply make-up properly since he apparently learned nothing about it during his years hosting a TV show.

no one dares to tell him his hair and makeup are f'ed up. I believe the overspray from his spray on tan provides him with his orange hair. No one on Earth would want the job of being his stylist which is why the buffoon looks like he does. What a total mess.

I can't believe that they ever posted this picture. His hair has been blown into some kind of horrid lovechild of a pompadour and a mullet. His spray tan or makeup or whatever that crap is on his face looks like it was applied by a 4 year old. He just looks unhealthy. Surely he is furious that someone posted this unflattering picture.

Trump layers on an expensive bronzer from Switzerland and spends long hours in the tanning bed to disguise his naturally pasty white complexion.

out the paint sprayer to put that stuff on. It's truly amazing someone can be pasty white and orange, all at the same time.
