Donald Trump used a sweat‑soaked White House Rose Garden speech on Wednesday to insist his much‑picked‑over hairstyle is genuine, arguing that powerful winds at an Ohio rally proved he is not wearing a wig. The 80‑year‑old president told supporters that the blustery event showed, once and for all, that his distinctive blond sweep is his own hair.
Trump has spent years batting away speculation that his trademark look is propped up by a hairpiece or some elaborate system. The rumours roared back this summer after his appearance in Nevada, when photos of an oddly transformed hairdo shot around social media and reignited an argument that never really went away. His Rose Garden remarks were the latest attempt to swat down the chatter, but the finer details of his story only kept the Trump wig rumours alive.
