Now that Trump is President, it is time for him to grow a President's beard

Looks like the old man in Home Alone

Is it really called a President's beard when no Presidents this side of 1900's had one?

Interesting bit of Presidential trivia - not counting sideburns (such as John Quincy Adams) - all Presidents were clean shaven until Lincoln - then all Presidents from Lincoln (1861) through Taft (through 1913) sported facial hair except Andrew Johnson and William McKinley.

That was also the worst run of luck for Presidents, with 3 shot to death and 1 impeached, although that was not directly related to the facial hair as McKinley was one of the "shot to death" and Johnson the "impeached" one.

Since Taft, not only have we had no Presidents with facial hair, there have only been 2 major party candidates to sport facial hair (both Republicans) bearded Charles Evan Hughes (lost to Woodrow Wilson in 1916) and mustachioed Thomas Dewey (lost to FDR in 1944 AND a close one to Harry S. in 1948).

This Beard trend needs to end.

Can we really crusade effectively when we're paying homage to the Islamic tradition of beards?

Honest question for the heterosexual Trumkins here.

If Trump, hypothetically speaking, walked into the room and asked you to suck his dick, would you refuse his request?

I am down with this.

Good stuff. Can you teach Zach how to do this properly?

Muslims aren't unique with their beards. Men throughout history and across the world have sported beards.

The Jews and Christians were bearded long before Muhammed was marrying children.
