Gaetz's face. If you care to see the side by side before and after.

Too bad he couldn’t get forehead reduction surgery.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

1. wow

[iwillalwayswonderwhy]

2. The eyebrows

I’m reminded of a Friends episode where Chandler plucked Joey’s eyebrows for pictures,

9. Joey

3. omg... you really see it here.

Whenever Matt Gaetz opens his mouth, you can expect headlines to follow. But ever since the Florida congressman took the stage at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday night, no one has been talking about what he said. All anyone can focus on is how, um, different he looked. If Helen of Troy’s face launched a thousand ships, Gaetz’s is the mug that launched a thousand memes.

His taught, shiny, extremely angular-browed new look has been compared to everything from the Real Housewives to Eddie Munster to the vampires on Buffy. Look, we’re not in the business of shaming anyone for their appearance, but there is clearly something going on here, so we called up an expert, board-certified dermatologist Corey L. Hartman, M.D., to get his opinion.

20. The dermatologist says it is very bad botox job.

25. it's more than that. his eye wrinkles are totally smoothed out. I think there was some face lifting going on

the lines from his nose to his mouth are gone also

[Irish_Dem]

28. Wouldn't surprise me if it is also bad surgery on top of bad botox.

And then a very bad make up job too.

Maybe he got the work done by his cocaine buddies.

[ribrepin]

22. Maybe Kevin McCarthy took him out behind the convention center

and beat the shit out of him. His face looks swollen. Probably Botox, but fun to think about.

[Hope22]

30. I'm satisfied...

That should be enough to scare the young girls away.

[Joinfortmill]

4. Guy looks like a bad copy of Jack Nicholson

[Pachamama]

5. Looks like Liberace

[canetoad]

6. Liberace was a good looking guy

When he was younger. Not so much after the surgery.

[BoRaGard]

7. What a phony. What a republican.

Sad.

[COL Mustard]

16. Isn't that

The same thing???

[catchnrelease]

8. My favorite comment

I saw this one on xitter earlier--

'Looks like Wayne Newton's plastic surgeon has got his license back'.

[ms liberty]

26. Bwaahaaahaaahaaa!

OMG - I saw Wayne Newton too!

[TommieMommy]

10. It didn't help

He's still Matt Gaetz 👎

[Think. Again.]

11. Max Headroom! We missed you!

[malaise]

12. The face of

Evil

[Walleye]

13. The ugliness is on the inside, bound to seep through to his outside looks

[Takket]

14. How do you decide which one to punch first? Life is full of difficult choices.

[COL Mustard]

17. I was thinking the same thing

Then I remembered that I oppose political violence!

[ms liberty]

27. Yes! In the German, backpfeifengesicht: "a face in need of a punch"

Such a great word, and very appropriate for this one!

[Whiskeytide]

15. One cannot be the Butthead unless ...

… one first looks like the Butthead. Heh heh. Heh.

[mgardener]

18. He looks like

A surprised Eddie Munster.

[Irish_Dem]

19. It looks like he is trying to change the appearance of his forehead.

He has changed his hairline, the balding parts are less balding.
Makes his forehead look a bit smaller.

[sop]

21. Matt wants to look like a teenage boy so he can attract teenage girls.

[Vinca]

23. Now he looks a little like Gavin Newsom. ROFL

Oops - in the photo at the link he looks like Newsom. In the photo on this thread where he's speaking he looks like a mannequin come to life.

[nowforever]

24. Why give him any space here

He is a mentally ill narcissist like his Orange Turd leader. He feels free to spew the most heinous and distorted points of view with a sick grin on his face. He is a disgusting human being who in an ordinary world would be a locked up pervert. Instead he roams the RNC like King TUT in support of the most vile human being who has ever walked the earth. Our corrupted press and the billionaires, who always want more, have destroyed our democracy.

[GoCubsGo]

29. The drive-in owner wanted a smoother projection screen.

The creases were distorting the picture.

Looks like he got a nose-job, too.

[dalton99a]

31. Fucking freak

[Buns_of_Fire]

32. He's going for the "Beavis" look, popular with Nazipublicans.

[Beastly Boy]

33. I knew I've seen it somewhere before.

And the replacement head is available on ebay:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/145876740364
Just pop the old one out and plug the new one in!

[Sympthsical]

34. The Daily Show went to town on this last night

Pretty amusing. Start at 6:45.

?si=a4TSAWGWbb47Amr3

[captain queeg]

37. Is that guy the new host of the daily show or just a temp filling in?

I didn’t even see his name?

[Sympthsical]

38. They bumped up three of the correspondents to hosting

The guy in the video is Jordan Klepper. The other two are Ronny Chieng and Desi Lydic. Sometimes there's two of them, sometimes just the one. I enjoy all of them, and they've all been on the show for awhile. So Stewart is on Monday, then they mishmash the other three Tue/Wed/Thu.

I think they currently have the strongest cast/host arrangement they've had in years. (Trevor Noah was always just ok for me). The current rotating system seems to be working for them.

[captain queeg]

39. Wow. Jordan looked so different than when he's a correspondent.

I didn’t recognize him. I’d like to catch Ronny hosting, he’s probably my favorite of those 3.

[Chakaconcarne]

35. The real Gaetz is hanging out somewhere in the tropics

[Talitha]

36. Those eyebrows accentuate his dolphin forehead.

[Deminpenn]

40. Botox treatment is my guess

Looks pretty similar to the before and after pictures one can find from a quick internet search.

[captain queeg]

41. No one else has mentioned it but my first impression was he looked like Elon Musk.

[NowISeetheLight]

42. WTH?

What did he do, inject silicone into his cheeks or something? He looks totally artificial. What a joke!

[captain queeg]

43. The rethug way. Totally phony, might as well go all the way.

[allegorical oracle]

44. He seems to be going for a Wayne Newton look. nt
