1. Why is he orange?

Trump supporters on tiktok claim he suffers from a skin disease that turns him orange, and one shouldn't make fun of it. Google has all sort of answers. Do you know why he is orange?

2. Trump vs. Windmills

Any clue why Trump dislikes Windmills?
Is it October yet?

The first I assumed was down to fake tan. I hadn't heard of any skin disease, but then again it isn't something I'd ever really looked in to.

For the second I know he wasn't happy about an offshore wind farm in Scotland because he felt it spoiled the view from his new golf course. I don't know if he had a problem with them before that though, but he did throw a tantrum when he failed to get his way. He'd already destroyed a site of special scientific interest or something similar when he'd been allowed to build his course in the first place (the politician who overrode the local authority's decision to stop it from being built ended up out of office and has been unable to make any kind of comeback). Anyway, I think the windmills thing comes down to him losing the legal battle against them.

Not a definitive answer, but I hope it helps.

His strange skin hue has usually been attributed to an overuse of tanning spray in every source I've read.

1) I heard somewhere once, that he takes pills for urinary infections that happen to promote hair growth... Could be a side effect.... Or maybe he just really loves carrots...

2) Every right winger hates windmills.... If you live too close to them, they make a droning noise that causes migraines.... And for a litany of reasons, they don't work very well, & they're actually bad for the environment...

The white circles around the eyes would tend to back this up.

I think he hates windmills for the same reason Don Quiote did- he's delusional.

Some people are white, some are black, some are brown or red or yellow or olive.  That one people is orange.  He is as unique as he claims. 

Windmill took the waffle snuggled cheeseburger off the menu, so he hates Windmills.

1) He does it on purpose in order to frighten Barry Williams...

2) They smell bad when they catch fire...

Well, so is McDonalds but you don't see Trump complaining about that since he eats there every day.
Alex's explanaition just makes more sense.

I kinda doubt McDonalds is as bad for the environment as Vinyl Chloride, unless you believe that chemical fires are not as bad as cow flatulence...

The meat packing industry is a terrible strain on the environment.  Wind power is wise and free.

Maybe, but you can't eat wind.

You can't eat McDonald's either, unless you have a taste for garbage.

This dude will be in all of our faces again soon enough. I wish we could take a Trump break for at least a couple more months.
