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.

I doubt if President Trump particularly wants to see, let alone talk to the slimy Obama right now.
No lay it flat on the bottom of the urinal.
He’s afraid Trump will say something hurtful to him.
And yes, this really is Obamas official portrait. Not kidding. He is sitting in a chair as vines slowly envelop him. Is that weird as hell, or what?
Homosexuals are notoriously reknowned for being bitches.
We knew he was anti-American. We knew he was a racist. We knew he was corrupt. Who knew he was this much of a crybaby?
That's going on the assumption that Trump extended an invitation to begin with. Trump is refusing to unveil Obama's portrait at the White House, breaking a 40-year tradition
There has never been any love lost between the two.
That’s ok. The 1st family doesn’t to be swattin’ at the flies that follow the turd around.
So keep it in the basement.
With any luck, in 4 years no one will want to look at it.
