Watch: A Gust Of Wind Hits Trump’s Hair In A Video He Won’t Want Circulating

Walking off a helicopter on Monday gave the president's hair a bad look.

Donald Trump had a bad hair day on Monday.

Stepping off of Marine One on Monday morning, the president’s hair was blown almost entirely backward by a gust of wind and was significantly out of position from where Trump typically likes it to be presented.

It’s long been a mystery exactly how Trump’s unique hair works, and whether or not it consists of a hair piece, a hair transplant, or some other form of hair loss prevention.

The bad hair moment comes a few weeks after a curious news report, in which the Washington Post found that Trump had for years been taking a hair loss drug called finasteride, marketed under the name Propecia, but that he had at some point dropped it from the list of his disclosed medications.

“Finasteride — also known by the brand name Propecia — is used by millions of American men to prevent male-pattern hair loss. Three of Trump’s past physicians have said that he used the drug before and during his first term as president,” the Post said in its early-June report. “But the drug has not appeared on Trump’s medical reports since he returned to office last year, including a report released Friday night that mentioned three other medications.”

The White House did not comment on that report.

“The current report reflects all medications deemed clinically relevant to disclose at this time,” the White House said in a statement at the time. “No additional undisclosed conditions or procedures materially affecting his health status were omitted from this report.”

Social media users had some thoughts on the helicopter moment:
