Look at that chin! hahaha LOL


It's been well documented that President Trump is bigly concerned with cultivating a tremendous image, claiming to have the biggest, ultimate accomplishments, bragging about huge nonexistent deals, even changing the numbers on the floors of his buildings that make them seem taller.

But there's one attribute he's obsessed with minimizing: His double chin.

That's according to the new book "Ultimate Insiders: White House Photographers and How They Shape History," in which former White House correspondent Kenneth T. Walsh details the extent of Trump's above-the-neck vanity.

"It's clear that for many years Trump has sought to create and enhance an image of being a larger-than-life leader," Walsh writes. He would even stage-manage "his appearances as much as possible to minimize photos of him from the front at a low angle or from the sides, because he thought his double chin became too obvious."
