6. There's definitely a Mar a Lago look for Trump admirers.

I noticed it in DC at a recent conference. There's a lot of Botox and facial fillers - on men and women, including quite young people - plus it looked like everybody is on weight loss drugs and they all have fake tans. They're all dressed in suits and ties (men) or skirt suits and dresses with heels (women).

It's kind of retro looking with an uncanny valley effect. Almost reptilian.

It seems to be a kind of youth worship and a hyper-competitive look at me my skin's even smoother than yours. It doesn't look healthy.

I found it repellent.
