The White House Just Revealed A New Painting Of Trump's Assassination Attempt, And Literally Everyone Is Saying The Same

The White House is officially in its "redecorating" era, and of course, everything must center around Trump himself.

If you recall, at the start of his presidency, Trump had his framed mugshot hung just outside of the Oval Office.

Well, most recently, the White House is facing backlash for reportedly relocating President Obama's official portrait to make room for a painting based on Trump's infamous attempted assassination photo.

The White House X account posted a now-viral clip of the painting with the caption: "Some new artwork at the White House."

I was no fan of Reagan, but he was never so insecure to put up a painting of his assassination attempt. Unlike Trump he really was shot.

The Obama portrait before it was perfectly centered within the decorative square that surrounded it.

This just looks like they slapped it on with blue sticky tack with no regard for presentation.

That being said, he's poorly hung himself according to Stormy.

…by putting “Trump” and “hung” in the same thread. Even if it specifies “poorly hung.”

Just like his pimped-out oval office.

Was that framed in one of those cheap mall outlet places? Because it looks like it cost about $19.95.
