Not his appearance per se, though there’s some argument that his appearance follows from his ego.

Someone researched the use of persuasive nonverbal communication in the category of Costuming and Cosmetics for him.

Generally, the result probably suggested what is called the power combination of black/dark navy, white and red in dressing for maximum influence.

There is lots of research in this area. Remember the Dress for Success Era that emerged for women? That was actually based in Communication Science studies in Nonverbal Communication on persuasion with a focus on women in the workforce.

The influence of colors on emotions is well documented.

But...
There's no accounting for taste and having a shitty tailor and a make up artist who apparently hates you or maybe you just don't want to listen to because she's a woman and you're a bloviating asshole psychopath.

As for:
1) A psychopath is always their own best target. They believe that the universe belongs to no one but them.

And

2) Give it some time, jfz9580m. I predict that not too far in the future those hideous bone spur protection devices will be showing up in the Good Will Industries ten cents bins.

made batshit crazy ideas seem credible. Chris Hayes posted clips of him talking about tarrifs way back then. Just as crazy, but he looked good and didn't have a history of bankruptcies yet.

His stupid claims and lies.

I know a guy like that. Businessman, investor, claims to be rational and pragmatic. But he keeps claiming that Bidenomics has destroyed the economy, that we're all broke, and we were so much better off in 2020.
He has to ignore his own mutual fund statements to believe this.

Covid-caused inflation reduced to 2.4%, unemployment rate just over 4%, 16 million jobs added under Biden (over 6 million more than before the pandemic).

Trump inherited Obama’s strong economy. He basically did nothing for the economy except to add trillions to the debt with the 2017 tax cut for the wealthy. Then Covid hit. There is no way the 2020 economy was better than now. The pandemic Trump ignored until it was too late was still going on. But reality and Trump supporters have nothing in common.

Lies.
To others, to themselves. Debased and amoral barely describe them.

Hundreds of thousands dead in 10 months.
Massive dislocation and unemployment.
Shutdown.
Supply shortages.

Biden brought us back from that.

compared to how it did from 2016 to 2020?

This is awesome! Brought a smile. Thanks so much for sharing this, WestMichRad. ❤️

never caught him back then. He's terrific and the bass player too.

is a danger to himself and others, especially to others. Plus, he only sees winners and losers, he is the later.

It’s his behavior when challenged. He can’t expand on his ideas when pressed. He crosses his arms like a toddler, and starts insulting the questioner. He gets angry in situations he can’t control. I can’t think of a worse person to lead. Unreal. Surprised he didn’t strike up the dj for an impromptu jam session.

It is another narcissistic escape mechanism. It is not dementia, age related,, or physical decline. Gives him the power to say anything deny anything I get by with it. You can stall for time, and if you dance on stage, and the real idiots and suckers will cheer you on. He is on the ultimate narcissistic power trip.

Harvey Weinstein?

These "wise guys" ?? Were they all dropped on their heads as babies? Several times?

Here's the inspiration for the story of The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight* who are very similar to the current Republican party, imo.

If that isn't fucked up then the sun will fall from the sky.

tigerish joy seeing him speedily unraveling before our very eyes. Anyone else, I would feel sympathy for their decline, but not for this soulless monster.

He called Nepal and Bhutan button and nipple when meeting with the P.M. of India in 2017.

Identifying countries: “He didn’t know what those were,” said one person familiar with a meeting in which Trump reportedly could not identify Nepal and Bhutan, which are in between China and India. “He thought it was all part of India. He was like, ‘What is this stuff in between and these other countries?’”

During the incident wherein Trump seemingly heard about Nepal and Bhutan for the first time, he reportedly pronounced Bhutan as “button” and Nepal as “nipple,” a classic mix-up! During public remarks, the president has also referred to Namibia as “Nambia,” but White House officials were very proud of one of his conquests: “He did a very good job of saying Côte d'Ivoire,” an aide told Politico.

I find it easy to believe he really can’t read.

There are many clips of MAGA people on the street, where they are asked questions. Their answers are like a
frog trying to explain Quantum Mechanics...

Saying that their primary concern this election is "the economy" all the while they don't have a clue about economics and are just blindly parroting a couple of meaningless buzz words?

Having come to terms with the fact that he shouldn't expect to win the election, he's switched gears to staying out of jail on the grounds of being found to be incompetent to stand trial or not guilty by reason of insanity.

and continue his grifting ways.

If something happens to him, he'll be a martyred White Trash icon for decades.
But if he just cracks up to the point he needs institutionally committed, well, it's been a long time coming.

...or as everyone else calls it...cognitive decline.
