[Rhiannon12866]

15. wow Jefferson is cute!

[csziggy]

19. He reminds me of Justin Trudeau! nt

[world wide wally]

41. My thoughts exactly

[housecat]

49. now that you mention it. . . .

[Maeve]

25. I thought Jefferson was a redhead

[malthaussen]

26. He was.

Artist didn't do his homework.

35. Artist changed hair on Jefferson to red on 2nd try 👍

[Drunken Irishman]

5. Pretty sure George Washington is just Joe Biden.

[NealK]

27. After what we went trough, Biden is worth a Washington. nt

[smirkymonkey]

6. Very cool!

Thanks for posting!

[Tommy_Carcetti]

7. Poor John Quincy Adams looks like Rudy Giuliani.

28. Hey, I can see the resemblance...

But less ugly and evil.

[ananda]

8. John Adams looks like a liberal. Yay

GW looks, well....

TJ looks.. hot!

James Monroe ... kinda goofy.


This is fun!

[Maru Kitteh]

17. Huh. I thought she made Adams look like a thick Rand Paul. nt

[Volaris]

40. He also looks like a hardass...

As in, 'that's not really a guy I want mad at me just cause its thursday again...'
Like he'd be right at home in our own Senate, thrashing Yertle on a regular basis as a beloved hobby.

Jackson looks like a grade-a prick.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

9. Franklin Pierce looks like Rand Paul with a tad of Dan Quayle mixed in.

In reality, however, he was blood ancestor of George W. Bush (via Barbara's side of the family)

20. I thought Pierce

looked like Rand Paul too.

Jefferson looks a little like Justin Trudeau.

[KS Toronado]

10. After reading the headline.....

Expected to see Mount Rushmore with blond wigs. This was more interesting.

[TruckFump]

11. Very kewl thread.

Thank you!

[pandr32]

12. So awesome!

I had to look for their images (portraits) and go back and forth comparing.

[Lucky Luciano]

13. Pretty cool!

[BainsBane]

14. I don't like how it's done

The eyes wouldn't change, only the hair, facial hair, and glasses. Lincoln wouldn't have facial hair, and Grant wouldn't have eyes that made him look like a Serbian war criminal.

[LeftInTX]

16. I agree...LOL

[Maru Kitteh]

18. She did do a version of Lincoln w/o facial hair which she called super-dated

22. Lincoln has the most amazing face

His bone structure is not at all common.

[malthaussen]

29. I'd be amazed if there isn't some aboriginal American in his ancestry.

But he's ugly as sin anyway.

-- Mal

[BainsBane]

33. I don't agree

I like his face.

[Bluesaph]

47. I also like his face

[Hekate]

48. There's been some medical speculation that he had Marfan's syndrome, which runs in families...

Very tall, loose connective tissue at the joints, long, spatulate fingers, apparently heart murmurs can be involved. And rather distinctive facial features. Abe was said to have resembled his tall, rawboned, mother.

One of my grad school classmates answered that description, and in fact looked a lot like Lincoln.

As for Abraham Lincoln, his face is so familiar to me and associated with so much that is good and honorable, that I would only describe him as “homely,” and not “ugly,” as someone else did. I think his eyes, especially, look kind — and weary.

[BainsBane]

50. I find him attractive

to each their own.

[Hekate]

54. "Homely" can be attractive, especially combined with brains and ethics...

[Ron Obvious]

30. He looks like Lance Henriksen (Aliens, Terminator, Millennium)

But maybe that's just me. I often suck at facial recognition.

[NealK]

31. Lincoln looks a little bit like John Kerry.

[DesertRat]

51. Everything was done in Faceapp+Airbrush on a phone.

21. Depicted Jackson's and Polk's Authoritarian character very well. n/t

[nuxvomica]

23. A better base for Washington is Spencer Tracy

They have the same mouth and nose.

[MoonRiver]

24. Very cool!

Thanks for sharing!

[NealK]

32. Cool, great post!

[BobTheSubgenius]

34. I LOVE creativity and talent like this. What a great idea!

Washington looks a little too much like James Woods to make me feel comfortable, but it's a great job.

[Sneederbunk]

36. Who knew John Adam's looked like Rand Paul?

[electric_blue68]

37. Thx for this. Really interesting!

[redwitch]

38. U.S. Grant looks like a skinhead serial killer.

Who stormed the Capitol on 1/6.

[Pepsidog]

39. Cool

[ProfessorGAC]

42. Fun!

Worth the Twitter slog to get to it!

[GulfCoast66]

43. Is it just me, or does Jackson look like John Kerry?

[RussellCattle]

44. Is there a link to more of these photos? I don't see the one of U.S. Grant. I think that....

.....the Millard Fillmore image looks like Alec Baldwin, though (thankfully) not like T***p.

[DesertRat]
