“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.”

    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.

      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…
