28. It could certainly be hung in some downstairs bathroom.

Or - where's the plumbing that routes to some of the bathrooms? I'm assuming it's downstairs in the basement or some such place (?). Hang it there!

Then, it can flatly, absolutely, and truthfully be said that "YES, it's hanging in the White House." And you can pass a polygraph test on it.

Because you know the Grate Aggrieved all over Dumbfuckistan will yowl and whine about the unfairness of it being left out! "Presidential Portrait!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaa!!! MUST hang in the White House!!!"

If it were personally up to me, as far as that little "if I were president" game I play, I'm honestly not sure which way I'd go on this. A BIG part of me wouldn't want it anywhere near me OR the White House if I were president. I doubt I'd want it in the collection at all, since I personally still believe he was NOT legitimately elected, therefore his so-called "presidency" is illegitimate. And the last thing I'd want to do is, in any way, to validate his so-called "election" in 2016. I would NOT be interested in anything that would give even the slightest appearance of validating that election.

HOWEVER, the joy of being able to throw it back in their faces "YES it's hanging in the White House" and yank their stupid talking point outta their stupid mouths sounds pretty doggone sweet to me. Especially when you consider WHERE I (the President) would already have directed to have it hung.

Needless to say, it wouldn't be in any place where it could be seen. By the public during White House tours, or by staff and VIPs in private.
