Fox News appears to have removed their DOW ticker in a pattern for the company, choosing to block out the steep drop in DOW points after Trump's tariff announcement

Sorry not related, but why do all conservative American news women have this over done make up and fake looking hair? It really moves them into creepy territory. Like sort of evil clown creepy.

This is actually a very big thing in conservative areas. It's like they all want to be that princess that they were told they were at 3 years old.

They are trained at an early age to dress up at beauty pageants. Where guys like trump "grab em by the pussy"

Many conservative American women strive to look like this, not just the news anchors. Among the women in orbit around Trump there are several with this same look. It's all very artificial, with lots of makeup and plastic surgery, but apparently it's an ideal in Republican circles.

trump chooses people like pam bondi, because it looks his daughter.

The other day we were watching a clip of that Goldigging Whore Press Secretary walking up to deliver an outdoor press conference, and she had two blonde clones trailing behind her. We all commented on how weird it was.

Superficial? Quite possibly.

I think television in general put way too much makeup on women but maybe that's just what I think.

The explanation is simple - they're literally Nazis, and they like the Aryan archetype.

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 day ago

Some have suggested it's because of puritanical upbringing. Girls learn how to do their makeup and the like by experimenting etc, but many puritanical families may act like a teen doing so is "dressing like a whore" or something. So they grow up it having the experience,and don't know what to do so just imitate what they think they should look like instead of finding the look that looks good on them.

It is what their owner men want.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

And without the stock ticker they do look fatter, don't you think?

They think the stepford wife look is a vibe. (It isn't.)

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 20 hours ago
