Supposedly, he did it so he appeals to the nazi wing of the far right who love anything from German mythology.

This is total poser wannabe territory.

2. Still the one and only pic I've seen of this ...

Are there any others?

[berni_mccoy]

6. Dunno...maybe the media feels sorry for him. Plus, the big news today is focused on what's next

Not Cruz’s new doo.

17. Jezebel has different photos of the haircut in a tweet and article yesterday:

19. And it looks way different than the pic in the Tweet that's been going around

I remain skeptical of this.

24. I think it's a visual illusion.

I think his grey hair looks more like shaved hair in the pic.

[mr_lebowski]

26. I think the tweet photo is doctored (nt)

[Turin_C3PO]

28. Maybe so.

It is funny though.

3. Is that for real?

4. Viking isn't German. And the Vikings would eat this loser.

9. Chalk that up to the culture of the far right nazi wing of the GOP.

They know little. And what they do know makes them look even dumber.

23. They have appropriated Viking culture, my culture, and I hate it.

There is a group called Soldiers of Odin, and others, they use the raven flag, Thor's hammer, and the Valknut.
All in the name of hate.

11. Hell, I'd provide the Vikes with all the fava beans and nice kee-ant-ee they want! 🔚

29. Germanic but not German.

Basically the same gods but slight variations in names.

[58Sunliner]

32. Considered Northern Germanic originally. Interesting.

The Germanic tribes spread south from Scandinavia. I read that Norse mythology is Germanic, but later Germanic mythology is not Norse, because the Saxons converted to Christianity much earlier, and the Norse evolved. I know they had some overlap.

[58Sunliner]

25. LOL.

10. Looks like a modified Faschie haircut

With a starter mullet in back.

20. I didn't know Richard Spencer WAS a hair stylist!

You learn something new every day.

12. Is he trying to wear the orange hemorrhoid's

old ferret wig? It obviously didn't come with instructions on how to do the massive comb over!

14. Variation on the esteemed Mullet

[Alliepoo]

15. Lolololol! Looks like he's a

BillyRay Cyrus wannabe!! Hahahahaha!

[Irish_Dem]

16. Trying to cover some bald spots?

22. Oh look, it's Achy Breaky Ted.

I've never seen anyone try so hard to look like a badass and fail so spectacularly.

27. Needs horns.

I know someone who might be willing to sell him a slightly-used set, since he won't be using them for the next 10-20 years or so.

[Baltimike]

30. What they're calling "Viking", I am calling "mullet" nt

[Polybius]

31. It's the angle that's playing tricks on the eyes

It makes it look like he shaved the sides, but he didn't. Here's another pic from yesterday.
