Trump rages at new light bulbs during White House meeting for making him look orange

President Donald Trump on Friday complained about energy-efficient light bulbs that he claimed made him look orange.

As reported by Reuters White House correspondent Jeff Mason, the president said he wanted to bring back older light bulbs that would give him a more flattering skin tone.

“Trump quips that the new light bulbs don’t make him look good and being a ‘vain’ person, that’s important to him,” Mason reports. “He says they make him look orange. He plans to bring cheaper light bulbs back.”

2. Odd that they don't have that effect

on anyone else's skin tone.

I guess that's just more proof of how special Trump [thinks he] is.

11. i learned he uses jars of creme make up

A tidbit reported by his ex-maid.
She also said there have to be 2 full jars and one 1/2 full on the table, and the same for Tic-Tacs.
There have to be 2 full and one half empty containers of white only Tic tacs.
And his under shorts have to be ironed.

7. Again? Or is this an old story?

I recall this exact story at least a couple months ago. Wouldn't surprise me if he's recycling old grievances, however.

2 former immigrant housekeepers for Trump explained how they had to follow bizarre rules for setting out his Tic Tacs and testing his makeup

…. Sandra Diaz and Victorina Morales both came forward one year ago, telling The Post and The New York Times that they had been illegally employed at Trump properties, even despite the president's constant invectives against illegal immigration. ….

They also gave some insight into Trump's personal habits and routines. For instance, Trump was known to love Tic Tacs, and demanded that the housekeepers set out exactly two full containers and one half-full container in his bedroom bureau.

They also said he favored Bronx Colors makeup from Switzerland, which had to be set out identically to the Tic Tacs — two full containers and one half-full container.

Diaz, who is now a permanent US resident, told The Post she used to smear a dollop of Trump's liquid makeup on the back of her hand to ensure it was still fresh, and that housekeepers frequently had to get Trump new shirts because his makeup had stained the collars of his old ones.

They also said they were taught never to throw away Trump's tiny slivers of Irish Spring soap. Instead, he would make known when he wanted to discard them. ….

In the year since Diaz and Morales went public with their stories, there have been "at least 18 firings at five golf courses in New York and New Jersey," The Post reported. "At Bedminster, former workers estimate that 30 to 40 more undocumented employees were not asked back this spring." ….
