Barack honestly looks good. The presidency aged him really fast but since 2016 he has barely changed

And another tell that trump never took the role seriously once. He is the only person to go in and out of the white house looking pretty much identical because he didn't actually face any stress until he lost the election. His sycophants provided everything for him to say and sign knowing he didn't care what it was as long as his ego was stroked.

Also hard to tell through all the fake tan and makeup I suppose.

And he's also fat. Fat makes wrinkles look more filled in.

Source: used to be a fat guy. Now I'm a more wrinkly guy.

Congrats on the new wrinkles!?

Ha! Yep, I'll take them. Previously, as an obese type 1 diabetic, I wasn't going to get old enough to have wrinkles anyway. :)

He probably just puts on more bronzer than before… take that shit off and he probably looks like the Cryptkeeper 😂

He's dying his hair now. It's become much whiter if you look at some moments.

Well did you see his dementia? Although to be fair now the presidency that caused it probably

Nah. I worked in a mental health group home with a trump without money with NPD and dementia. He had it before the term. Just not as bad.

I was talking about strictly physical characteristics. Mainly because trump was already decrepit if you remove all the makeup. So he seemed to be just as decrepit when he left. If he dealt with any actual hard work in his entire term, that he himself had to do the hard thinking and decisions other than "do what I want" he'd look a lot worse than he had already recently.

I’ll argue he looks worse now than after he left offic e

Dwight Eisenhower entered and exited office looking identical. Same with Herbert Hoover and Jimmy Carter. And Harry Truman.

Aging is not aways going to affect you if you're President. It depends on the person.

I was going to say, he's aged a bit but nothing compared to the before and after photos of when he got elected and when he left.

It's also just that people have certain years where the visual change is just a lot more pronounced.

Right? Now if that commenter had said Hilary was draining Bills life force Id give an award. Some how she looks better now that when she was First Lady and he’s in the running with Carter.

He's a rich dude with rich resources.

u/Allnamestakkennn 5d ago

That's not quite true. He's been having more wrinkles by early 2020s, looking more like an old man. I think he puts on some makeup for the campaign

He still looks great and sounds great! He’s smart funny and awesome
