Rather a second string football player warming the bench at some junior college.

(34,136 posts)4. The overinflated part is a given - but the "hair" distracted me.
It's as if he were an over inflated version of Richard Spencer, haircut and all.

Richard Spencer, the carefully crafted face of the self-described alt-right, organized a conference of white-nationalism believers. (Linda Davidson/The Washington Post)
For the past half-decade, the haircut, when worn by hipsters, has been known jokingly as the Hitler Youth, at least according to a 2011 New York Times fashion article, because of its resemblance to the style popular during Germanys Third Reich. That off-color nickname, one assumes, started in a different political climate, when it seemed we could be a bit cavalier and ironic with such terminology. Back before we started seeing the haircut on literal white nationalists.
