Did the creature that lives on Trumps head quit or get fired?

Zoom in if you need to... there's something missing on top of Trumps head. Not only is the usual urine yellow replaced by all gray, there's obvious pink scalp showing through. His hair is thin as rice paper after a month in the desert sun.

Did the little guy that used to reside on his head get fired in the recent round of WH firings?

This pic is from last Sunday when he was returning from Mar-a-Lago.

Was his hair guy part of the mass exodus? If so, he's important enough to add to Rachel's list.

I'm not meaning to seem shallow, but it's kind of a thing for him and when I saw this it caught my attention.

I'm wondering if he just now found out his hair had been a joke for the past decade or more?

Would I have liked to be a fly on the wall when that revelation can to his notice!

More like the DT or DA style from the 1950s? I wasn't sure, so I looked it up and that's what it resembles.

Is it possible he's a space alien? Or an android sent here from another galaxy?? He seems to have no knowledge of history, the basics we all learned in school - like the fact that nazis were not the good guys and others his age experienced the Cold War. And he has no knowledge of how to behave towards other humans. Maybe this alien culture studied Elvis or James Dean movies from the '50s? That's one theory, anyway...

Seriously, it would be a relief to learn Trump was an alien life form and not human at this point.

But I didn't think about Delilah, to me it was just a little payback for the whole (recent) infidelity episode.

I thought she left him just enough "hair" to keep him in front of a mirror trying to arrange what's left to cover the bald spot for hours a day.

Just for spite.

23. I had a long haired cat that had to live with my parents for a few years
Fri Mar 30, 2018, 01:12 AM
Mar 2018

while I was in graduate school. My parents lived in NM at the time, and they figured the cat would be better off with short hair during the summer. They took her to get her haircut, and the vet advised leaving a little bit of natural length hair on the end of her tail (I have no idea why he thought that was a good idea). Anyway, she ended up looking exactly like the cat in the gif with little puff on the end of her tail.

Some people saw her and remarked on the strange appearance of the cat. They had never seen a cat quite like that one! They wanted to know what breed she was. My father told them she was an "Abyssinian Pom Pom". They believed him!

This is a transitioning hairstyle - color is changing, and the elaborate coifed combover is disappearing.
He looks a lot more like a 71-year old man should look.

I wonder if he never knew before his hair was considered weird? He insulates himself pretty well from the common people and may never have heard all the jokes?

were becoming less elaborate. Next to go was the odd straw/pumpkin color to the hair. So perhaps Just for Men made a special color Just for Him? Anyhow, whatever happened, his hair has, of late, dare I say it? Almost looked normal for a man of 71. I wondered if he is attempting to let it grow in naturally and transition to a gray color. It almost did look gray one day not too long ago. I doubt if he will ever give up the weave entirely or whatever he slaps on top to pretend he has a head full of manly hair, but something is definitely changing with his do. I wish one of the White House reporters would bring that up at the next Daily Briefing ... just to see SHS’s face.

Then his top was once again bright yellow and I thought he'd missed an appointment?

Now it's shorter thinner and all gray. Maybe his stylist wasn't at Mar-a-Lago? Or, maybe the maintenance under his new constant public scrutiny is too much?

I think it's due to the highly receded gum line on his front left central incisor.

It makes that tooth too predominant.

but that mouth breathing, clenched-teeth grimace pushing his bow wave is as tweaky as ever before. Seriously, I've seen crank heads with that same face set. Scary.

This was from Sunday and I gave it lots of time to not make it a "current" thing.

The media has said not one peep on this, not even the tabloids to my knowledge.

Lay off the bronzer, lose the orange toupee, try to look a little more like a normal septuagenarian...and a little less like the preening, criminal, flaming asshole that he is.
