Donald Trump’s iconic hairstyle has undergone a change, sparking mixed reactions on social media. The president-elect’s new look has been likened to that of an ‘angry grandpa at a country club’ and even compared to Buzz McCallister from the movie Home Alone.
The Evolution of Donald Trump‘s Iconic Hairstyle
Donald Trump has been known for his signature golden, puffed-up hairstyle since before he entered politics. However, a recent video circulating on social media shows him with a new look.
Mixed Reviews for the President-Elect’s New ‘Do’
A clip posted by one of Trump’s supporters at his golf club in Palm Beach appears to show him with a more compact and closer-cropped hairstyle compared to his last press conference. It is unclear whether this change is due to a fresh cut, an alternative styling routine, or the compression from his signature red MAGA cap.
Representatives for Trump did not immediately respond to The Daily Beast’s request for comment on the president-elect’s new look. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the reason for the change, social media users have been quick to weigh in with their opinions.
Some users compared Trump’s new hairstyle to that of Buzz McCallister from the 90s movie Home Alone, while others observed that he now looks like an “angry grandpa at a country club.” However, not all comments were negative. One user, @nikhilgawde72, praised Trump’s appearance, writing “Looking Good Mr. President!!!”.
This is not the first time speculation has swirled around whether Trump had moved away from his standard hairstyle. In 2019, he appeared with his hair slicked back and flat for a somber church service in honor of the victims of a mass shooting. However, his typical fluffy mane soon made its return.
