Four Norman Rockwell works featured in the White House have been taken down and replaced with photos of President Joe Biden, according to Politico.

Politico first reported the paintings were taken down on Tuesday, writing two individuals familiar with the matter said members of the Rockwell family had requested the art be returned to them. Their request was granted last year. A person familiar with the matter said the paintings had been replaced with "several jumbo photos of Biden."

I would have expected some of Hunter’s masterpieces as the replacements. But, they sell for such high prices The Big Guy probably could not afford them.

Anything to insult America, patriotic Americans and shitcan American traditions.

That’s guideline #2 in the liberal demonic handbook.

The story here is the family asked that the paintings be returned and they were. I guess the president has the discretion to replace them with anything he wishes. I would have chosen something other than pictures of myself and my family, but I am not going get wound up about it.

Maybe they could frame a still photo of Hunter shaving his balls in front of his niece. I don't know if it is art, and it is definitely not Norman Rockwell. But it probably beats 'Jumbo pictures of Joe Biden'.

If the Roclwell family requested the paintings be returned, then that was a correct decision. However, putting up POTATUS pics in their place is just tacky, tasteless decorating.
