Trump's doctor reportedly claims President takes drug for hair growth

The mystery of President Trump's quiff is once again in the crosshairs.

Trump allegedly takes a prostate-related drug to stimulate hair growth, the new commander in chief's longtime doctor recently revealed to the New York Times.

Dr. Harold Bornstein, who has a private practice on the Upper East Side, told the newspaper that Trump takes a small dose of the drug Propecia, which lowers prostate specific antigen. The drug is marketed as a treatment for male baldness, and common side effect include erectile dysfunction, ejaculation disorder and decreased libido.

Bornstein, 69, said he also takes the drug, noting it has allowed him to keep his own mane of shoulder-length hair, and Trump to maintain his characteristic blonde hairdo.

I would, if decreased libido kept him away from me.

What a vain, nasty man.

Seen it now several times on MSNBC. He's walking into the wind, desperately trying to hang on to his hair. And the part getting blown comes up like one piece of cardboard. The top of his head is obviously shellacked on though.
