Young Donald - thoughts?

[laurenpetro]

there's a whole lotta filtering going on in that picture.

He reminds me of James Spaders character in Pretty in Pink.

This is one of the most interesting things about Trump. He has no backstory. No parents or cousins or long-time friends, no siblings or teachers or baseball palls. No college buddies, no barbers. He has either burned every shaky bridge that was ever built to him, or never formed a human relationship built on something other than naked power.

Reading the New Yorker article about his ghost writer - it's terrifying, actually.http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/07/25/donald-trumps-ghostwriter-tells-all

I have always wondered this about Obama. We knew about his Gma/Gpa and mother. But we don't know anyone else. He has half brothers/sisters, we know nothing about them. I have never seen or heard from a coworker or college friend that I can recall.

Maybe people just want to keep their privacy and aren't AW's.

[pandora89]

Hard pass.

[earlgreyhot]

As for the original question....meh.

He was young, slim, solid jaw line, rich...textbook definition of attractive in the conventional sense of the word. But not at all interesting either.

This presumes Donald Trump is not an AW. Hahahahahahahaha! 

[pixy0stix]

So Trump was balding and wrinkly early. Huh.

Not the candidates - ALL of them are AW's, but their friends. None of them would run if they didn't want to stroke their egos.

To be clear, it is the lack of friends or colleagues or classmates that bother me most. People can be estranged from family. But how you build personal relationships with people to whom you are not related matters MOST in a president. Obama has that in spades. He has and had plenty of "character" witnesses, from school and church and his community. Trump has NONE. No friends. Just ex spouses and offspring and employees. It's uncanny. Comparing to Obama is disingenuous at best.

Hey Donald. Hillary thinks you're shit.  And deep down?  You know she's right.

[DesertMoon]

Not my type at all. So I would not find him attractive.

He looks like a rich guy who sincerely believes he is better than everyone else.

Unattractive.

That is exactly what he looks like!

I think he does not have a strong jaw. The only thing that makes him look like Robert Redford is the hair color and even then he looked like he was losing his hair.

but young Stalin was an objectively sexy beast. That Donald Trump picture looks like my high school chemistry teacher.

I guess I was just thinking in terms of "If I had to fuck the young version of a ruthless dictator, which one would I pick?"  Stalin.  Sexy beast.  Although... maybe we could take a couples bath first because in the pictures, his hair is always just a bit greasy. 

I have wondered what kind of pomade he had in there. I'm assuming it was made from whale blubber or reindeer saliva. When was Vidal Sassoon born?

[bronxgirl]

I've never found him to be attractive at any stage of his life, but when he was younger he was at least neutral. Now he can be painful to look at. many years ago I saw him in person at a parade. it was a sunny day and his hair just glowed yellow in such a strange way.

[MarmeeNoir]

[jojoandleo]

Man, finding Donald Trump unattractive bringing people together since 2016. I think we found a way to bring unity, guys!

No.

But pics of him in his military school thing - he wasn't bad for a young fella.

I have this thing where if someone is a total dbag, I can't find them attractive. Like if a man is really handsome but a total ass, he loses all his appeal for me. Same with a man who is kind of meh, but if he's awesome, he becomes better looking.

Same. And I can't remember what I found attractive to begin with. It's like I can see the douchebaggery on their bodies, or something.

I think you inspired a new thread. Stand by ..

[bellejar]

He already had the makings of the hair. No.

[mrshandy]

I think that he could be considered attractive for the time period.

He's not ugly. The hairstyle is dated, but I imagine at the time women would think he was hot.

Noooooo! Steph is sexy. A dick, but sexy. 

[katieido]

Smarmy looking and doughy. Agreed that he has the James spader villain look down pat.

[cjeanette]

Man...he is really committed to sticking to that hairstyle.

And he had HAIR. Don was already sporting the side-part comb-over

[pescalita]

The Today show had a retrospective last week on all the times he's been on over the last few decades (which, excuse me while I vomit over Matt Lauer's love for him), and I noticed it then. I'm not saying I'd fuck him, but he was at least nominally attractive in the 80s/90s. Even the difference in how he looks from now to the 2012 campaign is stark. He's going downhill quick.

[nomad100]

He looks like a douchebag frat boy that went into banking. Not attractive.

[sfy]

He looks the same, with less wrinkles and less orange. Do with that what you will.

[agnes]

I was googling more young pictures and found random Owen Wilson pictures mixed in.  Which lead me to search "Donald Trump Owen Wilson" which autofilled as "Donald Trump Owen Wilson Boris Johnson"
