But a newly unveiled painting meant to depict President Trump and his team navigating the Washington "swamp" has something for everyone.

Over at DU it’s a mix of mocking, confusion, and derangement.

Sessions should have been painted trying to drill a hole in the bottom of the boat.

Of course they are since the Founders were evil white men. I have seen it demonstrated by white lib co-workers first hand.

LOL! Heck the gun alone is enough to send them into the straight jackets. Where they rightfully belong.

Look closely at how he WAS painted. Guns pointing in two very different directions. The artist knew what he was doing.

I’m more concerned about Melania and Pence there.

Incredible likeness of Melania making sure the President keeps his balance. Well done.

I’ve given up on Sessions. He is WAY past the time of taking action against RosenRat and Mueller for their ILLEGAL coup conspiracy against Trump.

“Sessions should have been painted trying to drill a hole in the bottom of the boat.”

Or taking a snooze at the back of the boat.
