He's Bloviating Outside the Courtroom

The usual whining and accusations. He seemed to be making some small effort to avoid violating the gag order. The best is yet to come.

His face, ears, and hands all match for a change -- all the same pale shade.

Got to him about the face the jury had to look at? About his ears not being painted ?

It's funny, but I think that it's true. Fashion advisors tell people who want to disguise their weight to wear accessories that draw the eye to an up/down view, e.g. a long tie. A shorter one would emphasize a side to side visual. It also covers the waistline of his pants.

Loose clothing is intended to make the weight look less obvious. Trump carries it to the point of baggy instead of just loose, so he looks sloppy.
