Donald Trump has finally put to rest one of the most hotly contested issues of the presidential race: whether his hair is real or he wears a toupee. For a long time, there have been rumors that Trump wears a hairpiece, but the Republican hopeful wants to show it’s all been a bald-faced lie. See the video below.
On Thursday, Trump called out Los Angeles host Ricardo Sanchez, also known as “El Mandril,” for labeling him “El hombre del peluquín,” which translates to “the man of the toupee.” During a press conference in South Carolina, the outspoken billionaire also mocked the New York Times for reporting Sanchez’s comments, and even invited an onlooker onstage to run her finger through his hair to verify that it is, in fact, real.
“I don’t wear a toupee,” insisted Trump. “It is my hair. I swear. You have to do an inspection. This is getting crazy.” After a quick touch test, the slightly embarrassed woman confirmed, “Yes, I believe it is [real].”
Trump’s hair-raising stunt has naturally dominated Thursday’s news coverage, like so much of what he says and does. Check out the video below of Donald Trump submitting his hair to a feel test, and tell Gossip Cop what you think.
