I think Ann Althouse might be onto something:
“Did you watch the cold open on ‘SNL’ last night? Alec Baldwin was back, playing the part of Donald Trump, and it’s just uncanny. Baldwin seems to be weathering into the Trump impersonation, even as Trump floats above the usual quick-aging that besets American Presidents. It’s as if Baldwin is aging for Trump, like ‘The Picture of Dorian Gray.'”
I fear it is yet another complication caused by Trump Derangement Syndrome symptom: premature aging. I’m not a doctor but I think it’s brought on by too much bile in the system, and I’m pretty sure it belongs somewhere along the Munchausen by Proxy spectrum.
I’ve coined it Senescence by Proxy, and frankly I see no need to do anything about it.

I watched the entire SOTU address, and marveled at the vitality and youthfulness of Our President, who is 5 years older than I.
Then yesterday, I walked into my sister’s living room and saw Al Pacino in an OLD movie on TV.
Man did he look OLD! And that was several YEARS ago.
Aging has a lot to do with what’s INSIDE rather than outward appearance.
For example, compere the radiant smile of Mother Teresa with the wicked grimace of Helen Thomas. Both are deceased now, but back when they were both in the news, their age had given both women a LOT of wrinkles.
Ergo...it is not youth, smooth skin, or an expert make-up artist that gives beauty, but something that shines from within.
As long as it leads to their untimely deaths by (of course) natural causes, I’ll call it any name you want. :’)
Thanks NOBO2012.
Had people age poorly. Just look at the comparisons of libtards and conservative people. Of course, it has a physiological component, social virii mucking about your dna and loads of alcohol and drugs don’t help it.
All of the ones that lead the charge like Kennedy’s and Soros, et. al. always just look terrible as they seem to channel the energizer bunny.
