Grant

IPAs are more of a hobbyist thing now, bro - I’ve been getting more into cream ales of late, man.

Grant, if he were alive today , probably.

This would have to be the coolest facial hair of any president.

Whoever kept the warmest in the winter had the best beard.

Whoever kept the warmest in the summertime had the stupidest beard.

I like big beards and I cannot lie…

I suppose I could nominate Harry Truman’s Jeff Davis facial hair (mustache, goatee), but I don’t think any pictures exist. He only wore it during his vacation in the Keys after the 1948 election.

All are dramatically improved.

Especially Trump. That’s a complete 180.

Agreed- Trump lookin’ good with the beard. (although I’m getting Alec Baldwin vibes…)

I’ve always wondered why we haven’t had a president without noticeable facial hair since Taft.

Anybody got any theories?

I know both Nixon and Obama were both seen with five o’ clock shadows pretty often. But why no actual styled facial hair?

We are way overdue for another bearded or mustached president.

Orygun · 2023-02-13T16:18:45.396Z

Agreed - long overdue! Taft left office in like…1912? Its been 111 years since a president with facial hair??

Taft may have been just a below average president, but the man had a fantastic mustache.

Orygun · 2023-02-13T16:20:53.981Z

Poor Billy Taft- stood in the shadow of Teddy R and hated his term in office. Heres to waxing that 'stache up tho Billy.

He did get to live his dream later on though. Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court.

Only individual to be the “guy in charge” of two different branches of the federal government during his life.

For those who are deeply delving into this insanely important topic, somebody actually created a wikipedia page for it because…of course!

And now I am realizing that John Quincy Adams is cleaning up with his Amish look.

List of presidents of the United States with facial hair

The majority of presidents of the United States have been clean-shaven, including the Founding Fathers. Between 1861 and 1913, all but two presidents (Andrew Johnson and William McKinley) wore either beards or mustaches during their tenure in office. Since 1913 all presidents have been clean-shaven except for Harry Truman for a brief period of time in 1948. John Quincy Adams (1825–1829) was the first U.S. president to have notable facial hair, with long sideburns. But the first major departur...

Now there is a thing called “way too ridiculous” when it comes to a mustache.

Kaiser Wilhelm II comes to mind immediately. Dude probably spent two hours a day styling that ‘stache.

Look at that chin booty!
