(5,807 posts)His balance isn't quite right. There will be more falls. If he shows up for a debate, our candidate should walk around the stage. He will be stuck holding on to the podium.

(9,426 posts)They cause him to lean forward. Maybe he tried higher ones, and fell on his fugly face? Or was pushed?
Ms. Toad
(38,638 posts)Has no one ever seen women wearing high heels? I can't recall a single woman - even with 5"+ heels leaning forward because of her "lifts."
Scarsdale
(9,426 posts)have him off-balance. Women start earing spike heels in the teens. By adulthood, they have learned to walk upright. We all know tRump is a slow learner. There was an article about his lifts on Crooks and Liars, or HuffPost, I read recently. Now he is older, and likely shrinking, stands to reason the lifts have to be higher, to prove he is 6'2"
Ms. Toad
(38,638 posts)they do not pitch you forward - any more than standing on the balls of your feet would.

(5,393 posts)or he was, haven't seen him in a while. I don't think Dumpster Fire has ever been in shape.
I would think lift construction and balance would be different than high heels? Idk. Inside the shoe vs. outside, wedge shape vs. stiletto. I had a heck of a time getting used to Dansko clogs. They sort of lean and propel you forward, and that's how I imagine lifts working? Will have to do a little googling.

(38,213 posts)When he leans forward like that, his face is closer to vertical with his midsection, disguising (sort of) his portliness. Someone in better shape doesn't need to compensate like that.
Compare with Justin Trudeau:

Once you picture that in your mind, you will never "unsee" it that way, and it's hilarious.

Check out where his shade of Nesbitt's orange sits on the colorblindness chart.
Far be it from Trump to let anyone else tell him how he really looks to the outside world. He probably thinks he looks like George Hamilton.

(24,722 posts)Im only seeing shadows around his eyes from his fugly hat...his neck however is the same color as the abrasion on his forehead. Unfortunate tanning bed accident? Maybe someone locked him in it?
LeftInTX
(34,294 posts)I'm seeing shadows, not abrasions.
But those goggle areas around his eyes seem to be getting larger lately.
Is he developing sensitivity to orange dye? Only his tan specialists knows for sure.

(5,457 posts)He should have a knob under all his hair so he can just turn it to pull his skin tight. Would not get surgery bruising that way. Or maybe not. He would get two jowls and a tiny trunk in a couple week's time.

(53,194 posts)I also find it interesting that he looks completely shitfaced, one of his eyes is more closed than the other, and that his lips are so red they tried to bury them in concealer and failed.
As my pappy used ta say, "that boy's drunker'n Cooter Davis!" Not knowing Cooter I can't say how drunk Cooter is, but Trump isn't doing so well.

(12,712 posts)Thanks for the clarification. It is hard to make it out. Makes sense to me.
I can see someone scrawling their signature, (it's not uncommon) but he could start with a "T" at least, or have something could even resemble his name.
Awww. Imagine the devotees' dismay when they show people their autographed picture and nobody believes them.

(21,799 posts)He looked normal, but if he had bruises, wouldn't he wear makeup? He's that vain.
FakeNoose
(41,634 posts)You'd think that somebody with 10 years' TV experience would realize that the professional makeup artists are going to do a way better job. But he's probably too vain to let anyone else do it, except maybe Ivanka.
That horrible orange makeup he uses covers his age spots and blotchiness. For somebody who golfs as much as he does you'd think he'd have a natural tan. But he uses that hideous orange spray-on tan instead. Yuck!

(8,905 posts)If it was a fall. Although. Could he be using one of the dermotological cremes for a pre-cancer skin condition and then got out in the sun? Like an idiot.

(20,769 posts)It's three symetrical bruises - each temple and mid-forehead. Botox shots to smooth out the hate lines? With his crappy diet he probably bruises like hell.
