What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe president's hair is the story this morning, and we have Skip Waverly live on the South Lawn, where it arrived on Sunday evening.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSkip, what are you seeing?

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentHank, I'm standing right where Marine One touched down Sunday evening, and behind me is the most photographed driveway in America.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentThis is where Trump stepped out with an all-over brown style instead of the yellow we know.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAll over brown.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentAll over.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentThe Daily Beast says it's a few shades darker than Saturday's rally in Highland Heights, Kentucky, though some South Lawn photos make it look lighter.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentSo the color is moving, Hank. I've been waiting my whole career for a front I could actually stand in front of.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAnd earlier this month in San Antonio he saw a high-definition view of the back of his head and said, quote, getting a little bit thin up there, I'm not happy.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentI assume the plan was, you don't like the back of my head, so here's the whole thing, from a helicopter.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThat was a sharp report, Skip. Accurate on the shades.

Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentIs that a promotion?

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt's a compliment. Brock has the forecast, and I'm told it's not brown.
