Evan McMullin takes shot at Trump’s appearance

Former independent presidential candidate Evan McMullin took a swipe at President Trump’s looks on Saturday, saying that refugees who come to America are better looking than the president.

In a tweet Saturday, McMullin spoke out in support of the “well-vetted” refugees who come to the U.S. from various parts of the world, saying that they present less risk to the country than the Trump administration.

“Trump’s presidency presents more risk to the Republic than do the well-vetted refugees we resettle to America,” McMullin said, adding “And, they’re better looking!”


The tweet about Trump’s appearance is a rare one for McMullin, who is a constant presence on Twitter in opposition to the president.

McMullin currently serves as the co-founder of Stand Up Republic, along with Mandy Finn, his former running mate, which pushes to lead Americans “in the promotion of liberty, equality, & truth in America.”

The former presidential candidate became a foil for Trump during his “Thank You” tour during his two months as president-elect, having referred to him as “Evan McMuffin” at a rally in Florida before Christmas.
