Maybe it's John Bolton clutching a gun. Maybe it's Mike Pompeo setting down his binoculars to stare into the distance. Maybe it's the gators.
But a newly unveiled painting meant to depict President Trump and his team navigating the Washington "swamp" has something for everyone.
Utah-based artist Jon McNaughton touched off a social media frenzy as he shared his painting, “Crossing the Swamp,” Tuesday on Twitter. The painting is a riff on the classic “Washington Crossing the Delaware,” only it replaces George Washington's crew with members of the Trump administration.

Sessions appears to be holding a flashlight. I don't normally think of him as someone who sheds light on things.

I can think of only one good addition to that painting: A .45 in the President’s left hand.

Bolton locked and loaded!Look again. None of them are locked and loaded.
They're all carrying pump-action shotguns with the slide to the rear. (chamber is open when slide is to the rear)

Look closely at how he WAS painted. Guns pointing in two very different directions. The artist knew what he was doing.Looks like a gun and a flashlight, not two guns. But what do I know?

She helps make the whole thing go where the President is leading. Same for Ben Carson.

It should have Comey, Hillary and Obama trying to capsize the boat but they’re getting smacked by the oars.

Ok. My twisted neighbor across the court has a monthly “resistance movement meeting”. There are twenty cars parked here right now and I would love to make copies of this and put on their windshields. What can happen to me if I can get up the nerve?

“Sessions appears to be holding a flashlight. I don’t normally think of him as someone who sheds light on things.”
He’s sending Morris code messages to Mueller.

Sessions is pointing the flashlight away from the direction of the boat’s travel.

Dress in a suit (or better yet, get a friend to) and go take pictures of the license plates with a large camera. Don’t even need film. Take notes.
Act like your putting a tracker under the car.
Maybe have a dog act like it is sniffing for things.
