“The Combover From Hell”: The Wind Caught Trump’s Hair In The Worst Kind Of Way And The Secondhand Humiliation Was Almost Unbearable

That's... Awkward.

It’s pretty safe to say that the state of the world isn’t exactly great right now, especially when you focus specifically on the United States of America. Yes, we finally got Donald Trump out of office and replaced him with President Joe Biden who’s doing his damn best. But the facts remain that America simply is not what it once was. We are now all but controlled by a fascist, Republican-run Supreme Court, we have suffered hundreds upon thousands and counting of preventable deaths by COVID-19, Right-wing extremism has never been so rampant in our generation, and to be frank, we are facing the very real possibility of a second Trump regime, despite his growing list of criminal indictments, that we can only expect to be inconceivably worse than the first go-around.

All of that to say, it is very easy to get down and discouraged and struggle to find anything in this life that brings one joy right now. Suffice it to say, we take the giggles and entertainment where we can find them — like Donald Trump’s balding head.

During a recent scroll through Twitter, we happened to stumble across this gem:

While we’re unable to verify exactly when the photos were taken, there’s certainly no denying that those are photos of Donald Trump’s hair trying to liberate itself from his head.

Of course, this is far from the first time this has happened to the big guy — no one’s going to soon forget this fiasco from 5 years ago:

In fact, Trump’s hair has gained such notoriety over the years, that even his own daughter Ivanka poked fun at it from time to time, according to Michael Wolff’s book, Fire and Fury: Inside Trump’s White House:

For Ivanka, it was all business — building the Trump brand, the presidential campaign, and now the White House. She treated her father with a degree of detachment, even irony, going so far as to make fun of his combover to others. She often described the mechanics behind it to friends: an absolutely clean pate — a contained island after scalp-reduction ­surgery — surrounded by a furry circle of hair around the sides and front, from which all ends are drawn up to meet in the center and then swept back and secured by a stiffening spray. The color, she would point out to comical effect, was from a product called Just for Men — the longer it was left on, the darker it got. Impatience resulted in Trump’s orange-blond hair color.”

As you can imagine, people on social media were quick to take their kicks where they could get them:

There’s a lot going wrong in the world today and it often feels like there’s no end in sight. But sometimes we get lucky and the universe smiles on us in the most unexpected kind of way.
