For all that american philosophy about ''chasing your dreams'', ''it's the inside that counts'', their movies, etc they seem like a pretty superficial bunch. The last bald president to be elected into office was Eisenhower (A badass general and war hero from WW1 and WW2) 70 years ago. Europeans don't seem so superficial, for example you have guys like Hollande who was elected despite being ugly and almost bald.

Drugs, plugs, rugs, and genes. I see older men with hair like them all the time, so it isn't really that shocking imo. Also I can swear I spotted some people with hair transplants.

Side-note, right after Biden was inaugurated I checked the Wikipedia page on Donald Trump, where it said that he was the current president. Then I reloaded it a minute later and already it was edited to that he was no longer president, and it was almost written like it was ancient history lol:

I wonder how historical movies that are made 30-50 years from now on will depict this time period we live in.

I think Gerald Ford was bald?

Yeah but he wasn't elected into office, he was Nixon's vice president and replaced him after the Watergate scandal.
