The only thing more fabulous than Donald Trump is Donald Trump’s hair.
“I really am very smart and I’m very good at business and I can make this country so rich. Maybe people don’t like my style. Maybe they don’t like my hair, which is real, by the way,” the well-spoken candidate said Wednesday in New Hampshire.
It seems his hair’s only real competition is against former secretary Hillary Clinton. Unfortunately for him, she has confirmed that her hair will not turn gray in the white house.
But Trump is so confident in hair’s abilities to sway voters that he invited a woman to come on stage at the New Hampshire rally and touch his hair, to make sure it’s real, Fox News reported.
If true, the claim would put him a step ahead of Clinton in terms of authenticity. Clinton admitted that she colors her hair.
Hair has always been a big deal in politics.
Mitt Romney fans and haters alike may remember that his hair was once listed as a liability in a PowerPoint presentation about his strengths and weaknesses prepared by advisers, according to the Washington Post.
All in all, it’s pretty clear that Trumps knows hair as well as he knows American values.
