No black velvet, though…
Edit
"…which was gifted to Trump by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA)… "
Darrel Issa has a wicked sense of humour …
Yes, Trump is rich because he inherited hundreds of millions of dollars. But if you were to guess by his tackiness and bad taste you’d think that he grew up in a trailer park in the middle of Redneckia.
OMG, how could Leslie see that painting and not say something? Or at least burst out laughing.
Miro would make his head explode.
Where’s “Dogs Playing Poker”?
And you just know that to many of his hard-core supporters, that’s some good art right there.
A black velvet Trump might be better?
If only Banksy got a hold of that “art” and hit the shred button while Stahl and Trump were standing in front of it!
Hideous. I live within walking distance of the studios of three artists who could paint rings around this clown. But then there’s the person that would hang that monstrosity on the wall. That’s even more appalling. Seriously it looks like what you do when you’re just starting your career in the paint-by-numbers field.
Trump talking to Lincoln?

Someone has a more realistic version- a dumb smirk with 50 lbs on the belly
Then there is the ultra-realistic version:
And, of course, IT is the focus of the painting.
Whose flag is sitting on the bureau?
Beat me to it!
He needs to black out all the Prexies except Nixon, his soul-mate across the decades.
No Harding or Hoover?

What is that old saying “There’s a lot of low brow in high brow, but there’s no high brow in low brow?”
I walked into a Christmas party a few years back, home was worth at least 1.5 million. Two doctors. Every damned room had these Bed,Bath and Beyond letters labeling the room, with some sort of crap sentiment nearby in weird fonts stenciled onto the walls. “Live, love, laugh” “Eat, drink and be merry”. You know the shit. Mass produced stretched canvasses with paintings of wine bottles, trees, and sunsets. I wanted to puke. All 17 rooms had a total of about $500 worth of crap on the walls. It was embarrassing.
