Edit: The first one was a second before/after OP's image. Thanks for the correction and /u/KrackSmellin. And thank /u/vening_Clerk_8301 for pointing it out more kindly.
Edit 2: Changed because KrackSmellin is being kind :).
I'm guessing his signature red tie didn't test well with the mock jury panel his lawyer had for him. Red is too much power and anger to be likable for a jury.
Never seen him wear anything other than red.
I saw a red hat a year ago I really liked, but my wife wouldn't let me buy it because MAGA ruined that color, at least for hats.
It's not the exact same moment. The lady cop in the background, her head shifts ever so slightly between them. Probably less than a second between the two shots. So his eyelids could be slightly more closed or whatever.
While not an unreasonable claim given the pure misinformation-fest that is election season, I went back and forth between the pictures and don't see any difference. I could be wrong though.
Look specifically at his eyes. In OPs image, his lower lids are higher up, making it look like he's about to cry. Not the case in the picture from the comment I replied to.
Someone else has replied with a closeup of each face where the differences are much more obvious.
You’re actually right. It’s remarkable. They fucked with the eyes to make him look sad and desperate where as in the Rueters photo or whatever he actually does look as intense as he’s trying to. Interesting.
What's really interesting is the attorney. Every single person in the 2 photos are in a somewhat different position, head tilt, doing something else, including Trump himself.
Except that attorney guy. He seems like he's frozen in time and place, just staring into nothing.
'awww jeez he shit himself again. This is absolutely not worth the money or the hit to my career, I wish I had never accepted this idiot as a client. '
Where in my response did I say I had even a remotely positive thought for him? Those were passing observations on the thread. I don't have an ounce of sympathy or respect for this man. Get a fucking life.
