Georgia GOP Rep Faces Questions on Trump’s Skin Tone from Students

During a recent high school trip to Washington, D.C., students asked Georgia GOP Rep. Brian Jack why former President Donald Trump appears "so orange." Jack was caught off guard and responded by saying it was "your perspective," adding he thought Trump "has a great tan," which drew both laughter and criticism from onlookers. Social media users accused Jack of deflecting and gaslighting, questioning why he did not provide a straightforward answer to what they viewed as a valid question. Some commenters attributed Trump's orange hue to makeup or tanning beds, with references to past reports including a Trump administration official attributing it to "good genes" and former aide Omarosa Manigault Newman revealing Trump's use of tanning beds. The incident sparked a mix of amusement and calls for more honest discourse about public figures. Jack, a former Trump aide, maintains a close relationship with Trump despite no longer being on his team.
