Trump, who owned the Miss Universe pageant, touts how handsome GOP candidates are, even praising parts of their body. ‘Look at this beautiful guy’

President Donald Trump has been praising Republican candidates for their physical appearance at campaign rallies. During a recent rally in Kentucky, Trump commented that U.S. House candidate Ed Gallrein "looks like a beautiful guy" and "Central Casting." Trump, who previously owned the Miss Universe pageant and gained popularity through reality television, often uses physical attractiveness as a measure of candidates.

At the same rally, Trump described Sen. Jon Husted as a "perfect person, good-looking guy," even mentioning his examination of Husted's physical attributes. Trump also made disparaging remarks about Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton, saying he "doesn't really like the way he looks." Democrats also face Trump's visual judgments, with him comparing their opponent, James Talarico, to the MAD magazine mascot Alfred E. Neuman, and calling another Democratic candidate, Jon Ossoff, unattractive, likening him to Pee-wee Herman.

Trump's comments on appearance continue to be a topic of discussion as Republicans aim to maintain control of Congress during the midterm elections.
