The unveiling of presidents official White House portraits by their successor has been a long-held tradition until now. Barack Obama is refusing to participate in the ceremony for the unveiling of his portrait, NBC News has learned.
Republican presidents have done it for Democratic presidents, and vice versa, noted NBC News. Even when one of them ascended to the White House by defeating or sharply criticizing the other. True enough, Barack Obama hosted the ceremony of the unveiling of George W. Bushs official White House portrait, despite Obama ascending to the office by being a harsh critic of the 43rd president. George W. Bush similarly hosted the ceremony of Clintons portrait unveiling. Bush had been a critic of Clintons during the 2000 campaign, promising to restore honor and dignity to the office, sullied by Clintons sex scandal with Monica Lewinsky. Bill Clinton hosted the ceremony for George H.W. Bush, whom hed defeated in the 1992 election.

Ugly picture.
Not presidential at all — more like a picture of a gardener.

He also (falsely) accused some guy there in the White House of deliberately peeing on a bed somewhere. (He better hope that nobody there at the White House decides to take aim like that at that stinking BO portrait.)

Left up to me, I'd take it out onto the driveway, pour gasoline on it, and light it on fire.
