I support that idea, but since most of these photos were taken in public areas, wouldn’t it be possible to just hold a color calibration card up next to, say, one of the walls he was standing in front of, determine the true colors of his surroundings, then work backwards to figure out the actual color of his makeup?

You would have to account for the surroundings being affected by reflections from Trump’s garish facial tint too. Quite a complex problem really.

As far as color balance - the woman’s shirt behind him looks pretty white…
Having said that, here’s the before, and photoshop “auto color” - there does appear to be an orange cast to the photo. He still
looks absolutely ridiculous.

How close does the card need to be? If someone was inbetween the camera and Trump so the card could be in the frame, would that work?

The deeper he goes, the more I wonder if he’s gonna cross this line…

it needs to be lit by the same light that is lighting Trump. Otherwise, he could be lit by something with a different color cast than the card and correcting the overall white balance would tint parts of the image.
(take a photo in your house near a window with your lights on and you’ll see what I’m talking about.)

So many wonderful browns to choose from out there. But I’ll only choose the best browns!

He could be gearing up for prison, applying something that leaves a lasting stain, like shoe polish, as he won’t have access to his makeup kit while incarcerated.
