serious question......what is it that makes his skin orange?

[dixiegrrrrl]

and yet white circles around his eyes like goggles were there.
But tanning beds turn you brown if you are lucky or even pink or red if you are not lucky, but...orange??

[FSogol]

1. Cheap spray tan. n/t

[Xipe Totec]

3. Crappertone brand. nt

[ProudLib72]

2. Cheeseburgers. Lots and lots of cheeseburgers.

[unblock]

4. i'm colorblind, but i understand stupidity and vanity mix to create orange.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

5. Side effect on the symbiotic alien that resides atop his fat noggin? nt

[LexVegas]

6. Carrot cake. nt

[lapfog_1]

7. There are tanning lotions

by this I mean lotions that give you a tan not block some sun rays that will turn your skin a shade of "bronze". Orange is what most people think of when they see it. You don't want to get this in your eyes so... raccoon city.

Which, come to think of it, umbrella corporation might be behind Trump.

[sfwriter]

8. Basic color science...

We know he is yellow because, bone spurs.
We know he’s red because, the entire campaign, Putin’s worship, etc.

Yellow plus red equals orange!

[demmiblue]

21. Heh!

[blogslut]

9. Spray tan

The white eyes are from the goggles that protect from the spray.

Remember the early 2000's when all the starlets were a shade of orange? This is that.

[dixiegrrrrl]

36. I was in this lil southern village then, so would not have noticed that.

I DO know that tanning beds are a big deal here, my hairdresser has them in her shop, but the women using them are a normal tanned color afterwards.

[crazycatlady]

10. Bronzer

[jberryhill]

11. physarum polycephalum

[Siwsan]

12. Rust-Oleum?

[WhiteTara]

13. tanning booths with things over his eyes

and spray on orange. that's my guess

[ooky]

14. Lying.

[kmla]

15. Oompah Loompahs are always orange.

[blugbox]

16. I imagine the whole process

Looking remarkably similar to the "upkeep" process in Death Becomes Her

[dixiegrrrrl]

20. I have not thought of that movie in ages.

It was quite funny, I thought.

[onecaliberal]

17. I know youre asking seriously but all the previous replies have me cracking up.

[NRaleighLiberal]

18. an overdose of these two fundamental materials

19. We May Have Unlocked the Mystery of Trump's Orange Skin

Why is Donald Trump so orange? This has been one of the mysteries of the 2016 presidential campaign. The internet is full of speculation, but the consensus is that Trump is an aficionado of bad spray tans or the tanning booth. (The white goggle lines are a dead giveaway.) He hasn’t always been this shade. Fifteen years ago, Trump’s pallor was almost normal. But something changed about 10 years ago and the internet hasn’t fully explained why. There might be a strong clue: Trump’s longtime friendship with the former CEO of a tanning company.

For nearly 20 years, Trump has had a close personal and business relationship with an Indiana businessman named Steve Hilbert, who in 2006 became CEO of New Sunshine, a maker of tanning beds, spray booths, and Kardashian-branded tanning lotions and bronzers.

Hilbert and Trump have much in common. Both men are 70, have made and lost fortunes, and have cycled through multiple marriages. They enjoy outsize lifestyles and indulge garish decorating tastes. And they share a similar orange skin tone that can result from the use—or overuse—of certain tanning products.

https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/11/why-donald-trump-turned-orange/

Basically, he is stuck in the past... his hair, his clothes, his taste in food, his gawd-awful decorating choices, his grudges, his opinions of anyone who is not a straight-white-male. Basically, he is a very stunted human being.

[NCTraveler]

22. It is a common look at golf clubs in Florida.

Truly common.

[lunatica]

23. I have wondered myself

He wears makeup but I have no knowledge of makeup that’s orange. Dunno.

[lpbk2713]

24. He's turning putrid from the inside out.

It was just a matter of time.

[backtoblue]

25. Jaundice from amphetamines

[xxqqqzme]

26. I think it is his

airbrush make-up. There was a picture with the wind lifting his hairpiece. Just below the 'hairline' there was a line of white where his hair had been masked so no make up would stain his comb over. (I have looked for the picture and can't find it. Kicking myself for not taking a screen shot)

I think eyes are also shielded during the air make-up application.

His orange is reminiscent of boner's though so a tanning bed could be the reason.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

27. I think the greater question is

What makes him think this looks good? And isn't there anyone around him willing to tell him how awful he looks with that stupid orange skin?

[Flaleftist]

29. Heh. You beat me to it.

I think this may be the case.

[Ms. Toad]

34. He's looking considerably less orange recently,

So someone may finally have shown him a picture of himself - or actually told him he looks idiotic.

[dixiegrrrrl]

37. A delicious vision of everyone laughing behind his back '

" Don't you DARE tell him, that would ruin the fun!"

[Flaleftist]

28. He doesnt realize how ridiculous he looks.

Is this an indication of people close to him just telling him whatever he wants to hear? Has no one told him he looks like a freaking clown with that spray tan?

[defacto7]

30. How about liver desease.....

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

31. Nope. Liver disease I'm pretty sure wouldn't leave

the white circles around his eyes.

[defacto7]

42. No I guess not.

[Ms. Toad]

35. Liver disease has very green undertones

most images on the internet don't accurately reproduce the color - but this one is close:



(my daughter has a liver disease, so I know lots of very jaundiced adults)

[defacto7]

41. I'm sorry...

Thanks for the correction.

[Ms. Toad]

43. You wouldn't know unless you've seen it.

Now that I have, I can recognize it in an instant - and it's not Trump's color.

Fortunately, my daughter is not yet jaundiced (late or acute stage), but we've lost too many friends for whom a transplant didn't arrive in time (fairly common in her disease (PSC)). On the up side, it is really nice to see the instant change post-transplant!

[budkin]

32. A tanning bed

33. Vain old man using spray tan with eye cover. Also stage makeup.

[bdamomma]

38. of course

that's why he has imprints of white circles around his eyes. What a stupid a$$ he is.

[dixiegrrrrl]

39. Wonder if all that stuff causes cancer....n/t

[Stinky The Clown]
