Trump Reacts to Time Magazine Cover Criticizing His Hair Disappearance
U.S. President Donald Trump publicly criticized Time magazine for a cover photo in which his hair appeared to be missing. While he acknowledged the accompanying article praised him, he expressed disdain for the image, calling it the “worst photo of all time.” In a post on Truth Social, he remarked, “They ‘disappeared’ my hair, and then had something floating on top of my head that looked like a floating crown.”
Trump’s Reaction to the Cover Photo
Trump emphasized his aversion to certain photographic angles, labeling the Time magazine image as “super bad” and questioning the magazine’s motives. His comments reflect an ongoing tension between the President and the media.
Background on the Time Cover
The controversial issue of Time magazine features the title “His Triumph.” This edition coincided with Trump’s efforts that led to a ceasefire and hostage exchange between Israel and Hamas. These developments followed the outbreak of hostilities that commenced on October 7, 2023.
Details of the Ceasefire
- On Monday, 20 Israeli hostages were released.
- Israel returned around 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and the remains of approximately 360 Palestinians.
This situation has led to renewed discussions about conferring the Nobel Peace Prize on Trump for 2026. This recognition stems from his claims regarding efforts to end several international conflicts.
Trump’s History with Time Magazine
Earlier this year, Trump reacted unfavorably to another Time magazine image that showcased Elon Musk at the Oval Office’s Resolute Desk. He questioned the magazine’s relevance, stating, “Is Time magazine still in business? I didn’t even know that,” while complimenting Musk’s contributions.
As Trump faces both media scrutiny and accolades for his diplomatic successes, the dialogue regarding his public image remains complex and often contentious.
