WND ^

Posted on 02/14/2018 6:01:40 AM PST by RoosterRedux

A day after the unveiling of the official portrait of former President Obama, who is depicted sitting in a chair positioned amid a wall of bushes, Twitter is having an amusing laugh at the expense of the 44th president’s portrayal.

The social-networking site exploded Tuesday with humorous memes inspired by the portrait that’s set to be displayed at the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery.

In one popular meme depicting the portraits of a dozen U.S. presidents, Twitter users noted that “one of these things doesn’t look like the other”:

Everything about that guy says “loser”.
Which is why he picked the “artist” that he did.

Can you imagine the outcry if the Trumps had a portrait made by an artist that had previously painted a white woman (or man, for that matter) proudly scowling while holding a black person's head?

In honor of the artist who painted that bizarre portrait, someone should have photoshopped into the bushes one of the severed White heads that has gained him some fame as an artist.

The portraits are to reside in the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery. The whole thing was planned and designed to insult America and the American people IMO.

Also, the artist used was no accident.

Now that’s a fine idea.
Come on all those talented digital artists out there. Let’s start giving back to the king of quotas as he so very richly deserves.

Obama’s a narcissist. He craves attention and loves to be noticed.

Look at me. He had to be different.

It was very predictable.

Actually these portraits, for me, are perfect to depict the Obama era. It will be the future symbolism of a presidency gone bad. Talk about a legacy!

One of the local radio people said it looked like Obama was sitting in the ivy-covered wall of Wrigley Field. Nonsense. A big White Sox fan like Obama would be sitting in the ivy of Cominskey Field.

Portraits are Barry’s final going-away “f**k you” to the American people.

I remember reading about the repulsive practice of “spirit cooking”. Could this portrait involve “spirit painting”?

The only thing that gained him fame (in hoity toity “art” circles) is the fact that he’s a black racist. Black racists are the new thing among the snob set.

Just another “FU America” courtesy of the jug-eared Marxist Hussein.
