Republicans Admit Just How Much They Blow on Hair and Makeup
"The Republican National Committee dedicated a chunk of the budget to getting its people camera-ready last year.
Campaign finance records, first reported by NOTUS, revealed how much money the RNC spent between April and November 2025 on what they billed as “media preparation.”
The disclosure comes amid increased scrutiny given to the appearance of key figures in the Republican Party. This includes President Donald Trump’s hand makeup to cover bruises and the lip injection marks photographed by Vanity Fair on White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s lips."
