Photo portrait of former President Donald Trump at the National Portrait Gallery.
To: MarvinStinson
Trump looks “pallid and grim” in the photograph, said Paul Staiti, expert on presidential portraits who teaches at Mount Holyoke College.
...and votes Democrat.

What exactly does it mean to be, “an expert in Presidential Portraits”
Is there a course one can take to earn a degree?

It's a fine photo of President Trump. I'm sure the photographer was a liberal, he did the shoot for
Time, but the portrait is excellent.
And, let's face it, ANYTHING beats Obama's portrait:

Trump will get a a painted portrait:
“I imagine the upcoming official portrait painting, however, will likely be grandiose. Trump will have lots of control; it will be his vision of himself. I am expecting something large, flattering and shiny,” Staiti told Yahoo News.
To: MarvinStinson
Trump definitely has the Winston Churchill vibe going for him in that portrait.
And like Churchill, he WILL be back!

To be fair, the painted presidential portraits are privately commissioned, usually by supporters of the individual former President. Then it takes time to hire the artist, arrange the sitting, then paint the portrait.
I suspect that Mr. Trump wishes to emulate his predecessor, Grover Cleveland and have two non consecutive terms. So getting a portrait done is on his 2028 “to do” list, not 2021.

It will continue to be uphill slogging for conservatives until the MSM propaganda machine is dealt with.

A complete nobody and we shouldn't be paying attention either.
To: MarvinStinson
There was a thread about a month ago when this portrait first came out. I said then and I’ll say it again. This is one butt ugly awful looking portrait.
It looks like it captures the president rising up in his chair to cut loose a fart.

This “news report” by Yahoo is sick in it’s absurd leftist hate filled slant. I hope the reporter dissolves in his own bile.

Bath house Barry wanted the semen stains on the side of his face. When he was 12 years old he wrote a poem about mixing his stains with Frank Marshall Davis (his actual father).
