WASHINGTON (CNN) The official portraits of former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush were removed from the Grand Foyer of the White House within the last week, aides told CNN, and replaced by those of two Republican presidents who served more than a century ago.
White House tradition calls for portraits of the most recent American presidents to be given the most prominent placement, in the entrance of the executive mansion, visible to guests during official events.
That was the case through at least July 8, when President Donald Trump welcomed Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. The two stood in the Cross Hall of the White House and made remarks, with the portraits of Clinton and Bush essentially looking on as they had been throughout Trump's first term.
But in the days after after that, the Clinton and Bush portraits were moved into the Old Family Dining Room, a small, rarely used room that is not seen by most visitors.
That places the paintings well outside of Trump's vantage point in the White House. In their previous location, the pictures would have been seen daily as Trump descends the staircase from his third floor private residence or when he hosts events on the state floor of the White House. Now, they hang in a space used mainly for storing unused tablecloths and furniture.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

He should hang the 0bama’s in a mop closet or in the basement where all the accumulated odds and ends and useless junk gets put.
Should throw them in the fireplace for a televised fireside chat.
It’s a challenge to be worse that Carter, but that is one of the very few situations in all of history where Barack Hussein is the man for the job.
I’d have burned em the first day...I guess that’s why I’m not the POTUS....LOL
...................................................
I would have taken them to the closest gun range and used them for targets!
Winning!
Please tell me that Ophonybama’s was removed to the basement!
I always liked the Golden Escalator thing...:)
I’d move them to a closet or the bathroom.
Uh... where is Obama’s? Or was that removed on Day 1?
In the urinal?
Awesome. I would put them in the basement or attic.
Those two should be in a Mena room or in the laundry room by the white powdery detergent.
best President EVER
my first thought also
Replace Clinton’s name plate with “Sink Master”.
it takes a really sick mind to create “art” like that
Move Obama’s to a frequently used room. The public restroom.
The basement preferably
