The left isn't liking this one bit. I love it!

[lightman]

FIGHT—FIGHT—FIGHT!

an apparent assassination attempt...

Apparent? Are they kidding? MSN is an alleged news source.

[Jim W N]

The guy on the left should be pointing the gun at the guy on the right.

Trump is a master at getting under thier skin and in thier heads

[Jane Long]

Love it! ✊🏼

[Presbyterian Reporter]

“””The new painting of Trump, 78, shows him raising his fist after a bullet grazed his ear at a rally in Butler, Pa., in July 2024, in an apparent assassination attempt.”””

More MEDIA SPEAK.

Hardly an ‘apparent assassination attempt’ given the circumstances.

REAL SPEACK would say: Failed assassination.

[Presbyterian Reporter]

Was Obama’s portrait moved above the urinal in the men’s restroom?

[Arkady]

Considering they tried so hard to memory-hole this image right after it happened, they should hang it in every school and gov’t bldg.

So according to actual protocol, Trump’s first term portrait ought to have been hanging for most of the Biden years, along with Obama’s, and now Biden’s portrait ought to be sharing space with Trump’s first term portrait.

Given that neither of these is present, and that Obama’s certainly has had enough time, this seems reasonably fair, although I’d rather that he stay out of the Bushes and put up RWR.

[Jim W N]

Yeah, that's more like it.

[Recompennation]

Put Churchill back up too.

[Lisbon1940]

Obama didn’t have any assassination attempts. Trump had two.

Trump never got an official portrait for his first term because nobody in the White House had any intention of inviting him back for the unveiling. They were too focused trying to put him and his supporters in prison.

Here Don, frame this.

“I’d rather that he stay out of the Bushes and put up RWR.”

RWR’s huge portrait is hanging on the wall to the right of Trump’s desk, right underneath G. Washington’s.

This is on the first floor where the public tours occur. We went a few weeks ago and had to endure the Obama portrait.

That’s right. Didn’t you get the memo? Corey Comperatore was the real target. There was some kind of personal grudge between Thomas Crooks and Corey. Trump just got hit by a stray bullet. /s
