The Myth of Trump’s Wealth and His False Tan
There has long been debate and skepticism about the true wealth and lifestyle of former US President Donald Trump. One of the most memorable quirks about him, often mocked, is his false tan. This article delves into why Trump’s tan might appear unsatisfactory, how it is applied, and what it reveals about his lifestyle and mental state.
Proof of Assets: Concealed Financials
The direct correlation between perceived wealth and visible opulence is a common belief. However, when it comes to Donald Trump, there is no concrete proof of his extensive assets. In fact, there is reason to suspect that he is hiding his financial records, particularly his tax returns. This raises questions about the authenticity and extent of his reported wealth.
A Cheap and Miserly Tannery
The truth is, Trump has a long-held reputation for being extremely cheap and miserly. Even for something as seemingly trivial as a tan, he resorts to spraying it on rather than going through the process of natural tanning or even consulting a salon. This brings to light the question: why, if he is as wealthy as he claims, can he not afford to look his best?
One clear picture reveals him being sprayed by a woman with a small caption noting that he does not tan naturally but instead has it applied daily. This behavior is consistent with his known frugality and suggests a deeper issue with his perception of himself and his financial worth.
Body Dysmorphia in Reverse
Donald Trump's lack of concern for his appearance, especially his tanned skin, is indicative of a psychological issue. He seems to have body dysmorphia in reverse, believing that his appearance is better than it truly is. For example, he maintains that he looks like a 29-year-old stud, while in reality, his photo shows a man who lacks proper dental care and whose golf attire is unbecoming of someone claiming to be in perfect shape.
Trump's belief in his infallibility and his perceived intelligence and superiority often extend to his appearance. He claims to be the only one who knows how to solve everything, which reveals a hubristic self-image that can be seen in his vanity over his appearance.
Shady Financials and Debts
Despite his claims, Trump’s financial records paint a different picture. It is not just that he is hiding his assets; it is also clear that he is in significant debt. The least known amount he owes is $400 million, and some speculate that the actual amount could be upwards of $1 billion. He has not been able to maintain his private jet and does not even spend on high-end custom clothing, such as the tuxedo he wore during a formal dining event with Queen Elizabeth, or the professional golf attire befitting a man who claims to be in excellent physical condition.
The irony is that his false tan, along with his other eccentricities, has become a meme, a source of endless humor. His lifestyle and appearance choices, while perhaps amusing, reveal a man who is charismatic but often lacks the confidence and self-awareness to present a polished image to the public.
In conclusion, if Donald Trump is so wealthy and successful, why can’t he afford to look his best? The answer lies in a combination of factors: the need to hide his true financial state, a history of being a cheap and miserly individual, and a delusional self-image that leads to an illusory perception of his physical appearance. This, however, does not diminish the real problems and contradictions in his public persona and financial reality.
