If I had money, I would buy this artwork and organize to have it displayed everywhere and covered massively by the media to piss him off.

It should be the only reference image ever used in any news story about him, as should Drag Queen Putin for that shit bag.

Trumps best look will be once he’s in a casket.

The correct response is to do as he asks... Respectfully remove the painting.

Then replace it with a picture of an orange baby and put his name on the plaque.

The actual backstory on this (referenced in the article) is even more absurd.

That spot which is supposed to have Trump's picture was empty for quite a while because they were having trouble raising money for it. But then someone smuggled in a literal picture of Putin and hung it in its place. Colorado Republicans had no trouble raising the money after that.

That is funny as hell.

Which idk I love the idea that no one wanted to pay for a Trump painting.

Using Putin instead may have been gilding the lily.

I mean its bad, but it doesnt look intentionally mocking. Only piss babies would care. I wouldnt even care if someone drew me as the devil with a dick in each hand, hell yeah man art it up.

I mean, it's better than I could afford to pay someone to do a portrait of me.

I could maybe afford a caricature artist, but not a real painter portrait artist.

Seriously, its not like the picture of that wealthy Aussie cunt. Or of King Charles with the red everywhere.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 6 points 2 weeks ago

Im fine if we remove all presidential portraits from both this term and the last. I would say I would like to wipe this whole period from the history books but we need the cautionary tale.

[-] dan00@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

It would be funny if we bully wikipedia to use this photo of him forever.

[-] 0ndead@infosec.pub 2 points 2 weeks ago

It didn’t show his oiled Rambo chest. Of course he’s upset.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
