Trump?

I thought Obama refused.

[livius]

I also thought it was Obama who refused.

I also saw that POS Obama had refused.

Nooe.
It's like when the media tried to make it sound like The Golden State Warriors had rejected President Trump’s invitation to the White House, when in reality Trump had not in fact extended any such invitation in the first place.

From US News,

Former President Barack Obama will forgo the unveiling of his presidential portrait in the White House as President Donald Trump ramps up attacks on his record.

It is a long-held White House tradition that a first-term president hosts a ceremony to unveil the official portrait of his immediate predecessor that will hang in the building. However, people familiar with the matter told NBC News that Obama will skip the unveiling of his portrait.

I thought Obama refused.

Yea, me too.....In fact there was a thread addressing the jerk's refusal.......

[Deaf Smith]

Hussein’s portrait should NEVER go up in the Whitehouse until POTUS Trump has his posted in schools and US Post Offices.

[Optimist]

ACTUAL HEADLINE FROM THE LINK:
Barack won’t show up, so Trump refuses to unveil Obama’s portrait at the White House…

[Captain Peter Blood]

That was my understanding, Obama called it off not Trump.

[polymuser]

Sounds like they’re both refusing simultaneously. LOL!

When this story first came out earlier in the day that was the case. Think they had to fake it up to protect The One.
