Donald Trump Rips ‘Time’ Magazine For Using A ‘Super Bad Picture’ Of Him From An ‘Unflattering Angle’ On Their First Cover As Fans Say: ‘He’s Barely Recognizable’

It’s no secret that right now, Donald Trump arguably has a more complicated relationship with the press than any other president before him.

Recently, the president called out TIME, one of today’s most esteemed publications, for the cover photo they took of him for their upcoming November 10th issue. He referred to it as one of the ‘worst’ photos he had ever seen of himself, and his complaints even led to the magazine changing its cover photo selection, emphasizing his influence over American media right now. Read more about the situation below.

The current US president is known and remembered for a lot of things right now, as he charges through his controversial second term. Still, one of the most signature parts of his presidency and life is his look: his tan, ‘orange’ skin, his puffy blonde hair, and the serious glares he often has on his face.

Recently, TIME, one of America’s most famous magazines, declared that Trump would be their November issue cover star, where they wrote about all of the significant events and changes that have gone down in the United States since he began his second term. A little over a week ago, the cover photo for the issue was revealed and released on social media, and it caused quite a stir.

The photo depicted the 79-year-old standing outdoors in the sunlight and was taken at an “unflattering angle,” as he confidently stared off into the distance. The photo allowed readers to get a more up-close look at Trump’s genuine appearance, showing off his signature skin color, with the sun shining through his super-light hair, putting his neck, which has received a lot of negative attention in the press, on full display. Internet users wrote numerous posts about how much the magazine’s photographer “must hate him,” while others added things like, “he has a wattle!”

“He’s barely recognizable,” wrote another.
