“Time Magazine wrote a relatively good story about me, but the picture may be the Worst of All Time,” Trump wrote on Truth Social early on Tuesday. “They ‘disappeared’ my hair, and then had something floating on top of my head that looked like a floating crown, but an extremely small one. Really weird!” He went on to call the image “a super bad picture that deserves to be called out.”

Huh, is his triumph after his struggle? Maybe an autobiographical novel he could title "my struggle"?

Every article title there is vomit inducing.

Mein Triumph by Trump

timeline really sucks

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 52 points 1 month ago (4 children)

I'm sorry, does he not know what the fucking letter "M" is?

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Holy shit I think that's actually what he meant

[–] kbobabob@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I thought it was his own hair be was complaining about, but I'm convinced it's the M now.

He really is a narcissistic dumbass of epic proportions.

[–] blattrules@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

He also doesn’t know he’s going bald apparently, despite probably spending an hour swirling his cotton candy hair every day for the last 35 years.

[–] sgnl@midwest.social 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is going over my head, what am I missing?

[–] Jimbabwe@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

The second part of Trump’s comment, about the “small crown”.. I didn’t see anything either, but maybe he’s referring to the “M” in “TIME”

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Oh, I thought those were cuckold's horns.

[–] lowleekun@ani.social 43 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Time Magazine 🤮

The bad photo is the only good thing and tbh it looks like virtue signaling to "critical" readers aka "look at this bad photo, we totally don't suck up tro Trump"

[–] mkwt@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think it's more likely they struggled really hard to find any flattering angle, and this is the best they came up with.

[–] lowleekun@ani.social 12 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Photographies from bottom up are rarely flattering so i don't think thats it. I mean Trump is a very old dude, so there are no "sexy" pics of him but there are for sure better pictures.

Tbh the most logical explanation is that they knew Trump would make a fuss about a somewhat bad picture and thus generate more attention, while the article strokes his ego and thus prevents real actions taken.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Counterpoint: They're an independent media organization. They didn't have to write an article fellating our mad king. It's so obviously meant to appeal to him, it makes me question any journalistic integrity they may have once had...

[–] JandroDelSol@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

dude hitler was person of the year, time has always been shit

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

He looks like a badly rendered image of a rooster sculpted in Spam.

[–] Kalon@lemmy.world 31 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Be happy, they did capture your neck vagina well.

[–] tidderuuf@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I've jerked off to some shameful content but once I got started ICE raided my house and Noem shot my puppy.

Image description: The Time Magazine cover from April 13, 1936, depicting Adolf Hitler.

[–] falseWhite@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Curious what they wrote about him. I bet they were praising him too?

[–] baldingpudenda@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Its been a while but I believe it was about turning the German economy around.

[–] verdantbanana@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

thought this is fake news or onion material but sadly with a heavy sigh did some digging and it appears to not only be real but trump has been on the cover several times

Talk about literally everything except how he nutted on somebody's kids

[–] very_well_lost@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They 'disappeared' my hair

Oh, 'time' definitely disappeared his hair — just not the 'Time' he's thinking of

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I honestly can’t tell anymore if he’s just so committed to the lie that he has hair to preserve his ego. Or if he actually has become so delusional that he believes he still has a full head of hair at 79. This reality is stupid and I hate it here

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Or if he actually has become so delusional that he believes he still has a full head of hair at 79.

Some people do. Just not Trump, he didn't even have that in his 40s.

[–] NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social 18 points 1 month ago

They ‘disappeared’ my hair,

No, I can definitely see that one wispy hair in the picture.

[–] Stamau123@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

They slob his knob with this cover and it's still not enough for this bald baby

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

If he survives to the end of his term, when he's arrested, he should be shaved bald for his mug shot.

[–] rayyy@piefed.social 10 points 1 month ago

His natural state is fat, flabby and bald.

[–] QuarterSwede@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

What a narcissist.

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Israeli hostage and Palestinian prisoners?

Ya go fuck yourselves Time.

And someone fucking release the Epstein files.

[–] etchinghillside@reddthat.com 8 points 1 month ago

If it was a bigly crown it’d be okay.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago

Why no hair Trump whines about time cover

FTFY

[–] EndOfLine@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Should have used one of these instead

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)

That is the most flattering picture I've seen of him in a while. He almost looks human in that photo.

[–] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)

His neck looks like inside out vulva.

[–] Geobloke@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago

New kink unlocked

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

His mouth looks like an elderly cow's prolapsed anus.

[–] __Lost__@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

He prefers the angry old man mugshot look in his pictures for some reason

[–] Whostosay@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Good ol' limp dick journalism

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago

It makes him look even more piglike than most photos of him. More like his real self.

[–] frog_meister@lemmings.world -1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Downvoted for 'slam' in the title.

[–] reddig33@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Slam-a-lama-ding-dong!
