Donald Trump<\/span>Who Needs Portraits When Ya Got a Mug Shot?!?<\/span><\/h2>\n
President Trump<\/strong><\/a>‘s breaking new ground during his second term in the Oval Office … ’cause he’s the first president to hang his mug shot just outside of it!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The 47th prez met with India’s Prime Minister\u00a0Narendra Modi<\/strong>\u00a0at the White House Thursday and photographers snapped hundreds of shots as they sat across from the Resolute desk — but it’s the background that’s eye-catching.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The door to the Oval was left open, and just outside the office, you can see a framed photo of Trump’s infamous mug shot hanging on the wall.<\/p>\n
Gotta love the perspective showing a stately portrait of\u00a0Thomas Jefferson<\/strong>\u00a0inside the office, on the wall behind POTUS.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
It doesn’t appear to be just a photo BTW … Trump hung up a copy of the New York Post front-page story about his mug shot. He’s been a fan since the 1980s, when the outlet regularly published pics of him.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

As you know … the President’s successfully turned his mug shot —\u00a0taken by authorities<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0at Fulton County Jail after he was\u00a0indicted in Georgia<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0— into a symbol of persecution and defiance, at least in his eyes and his supporters’.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
\n
He sold merchandise with the image emblazoned on it to fund his campaign … and, when he regained office, he decided to forego a smile for an\u00a0expression matching the mug<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Worth noting … DJT left the mug shot outside the Oval, perhaps as an intimidation tactic before guests come in for meetings.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
Yeah, official portraits are cool and all … but, only one president can prove his street cred by hanging a mug shot in the West Wing.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
