PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA: Former President Donald Trump has once again sparked ridicule online, this time for his overly-applied makeup during a recent campaign stop.

Known for his distinct appearance, Trump was photographed with a supporter in the snack aisle of a Pennsylvania grocery store, where critics wasted no time pointing out his heavy use of bronzer.

The 78-year-old politician’s image quickly became the subject of social media mockery, with users comparing his makeup to everything from Doritos to cheese balls.



 

Donald Trump sparks mockery for overly-applied makeup during recent campaign stop

Donald Trump’s penchant for bronzer has been a point of discussion for years, but this particular photo reignited widespread attention.

As he posed with a MAGA supporter, flashing his signature thumbs-up gesture, the former president seemed unaware that his makeup would become the main focus of the image.

Political pundit Ron Filipkowski was one of the first to highlight the situation, sharing the photo on social media with the caption: "He’s really got that makeup caked on good today."

The comment opened the floodgates, as X users eagerly joined in, adding their own humorous takes.

One person remarked, "Completely appropriate that he’s in the Cheeto aisle." Another said, "More foundation than the Sears tower."



 



 

"His head is next to the tub of cheese balls. Matches his foundation," wrote one person.

Another added, "He either has the worst make up 'artist' in the world, or he slabs it on himself. Either way, it looks awful and that 'grin' looks just as fake as his 'due.'"



 



 

One individual wrote, "Jesus, who did his make up, a mortician?" Another pointed out, "Gotta outshine the Dorito aisle!" One netizen remarked, "He will need a sand blaster to remove the orange concrete layer."



 



 



 

Another added, "I see he is in his makeup aisle."



 

Not the first time Donald Trump’s makeup has been the subject of ridicule

This latest round of mockery is far from the first time Trump’s makeup has been the subject of ridicule.

His signature bronzed complexion has been a consistent talking point throughout his political career, and the reactions seem to have only intensified over time.

As previously reported by various outlets, Trump’s makeup was once again in the spotlight just before his 2024 presidential debate against Vice President Kamala Harris.

His bronzer mishaps didn’t end there. Last month, during a Las Vegas rally, Trump was again mocked for what appeared to be an excessive application of bronzer.

Whether it’s a deliberate choice or simply part of his daily routine, Trump’s appearance seems to draw as much attention as his words at public events.

Despite the widespread mockery, Trump appears unfazed by the comments regarding his appearance.

Over the years, he has remained consistent with his bronzer look, using it as part of his public persona.

However, as he ramps up his campaign for the upcoming election, it’s clear that his appearance will continue to be a target for criticism, particularly in the age of social media where viral moments spread like wildfire.

Trump’s makeup isn’t the only thing garnering negative attention.

The former president has also found himself at the center of controversy due to a series of questionable remarks about women. His latest comments, made during a rally in Pennsylvania, have sparked criticism.

Trump, while addressing his crowd of supporters, expressed disbelief at reports suggesting he isn’t popular among women voters.

"I always thought women liked me. I never thought I had a problem," Trump told the crowd. "But the fake news keeps saying women don’t like me. I don’t believe it... You know what? They like to have strong voters, they like to have safety."
