He just set precedent. Think his are going to be shown anytime soon. And since he won’t hang Obama’s, I doubt his gets hung by the next president

I think other presidents will be more statesmen like. They will put up Obama's and give trump the respect he is not due. No president has ever been like him. Sad.

I think that it would be great if the next President follows the normal process for hanging a President Trump portrait. It would be great to put Donald Trump in the position of either attending or declining an invite to attend. The ceremony should be held whichever.

He is nothing more than a toddler who wears a suit. Why people adore him, well, I just don't get it.

Oh, they'll hang his portrait all right...in the basement. Where it belongs. Upside down and facing the wall. The way it should be. What a heinous, lying, womanizing, tantrum-throwing toddler brattyass.

Have to laugh at myself. When I saw the title of this thread I read it as ".... get more pretty" so I thought it was going to be about his comments about shower heads and needing to make his hair pretty.

Right after Obama has his Well after. No. Hold a joint ceremony. Invite them both.

Do you really think that Trump will show if Obama is also being honored?

If we ever get ahold of his financial paperwork, I totally believe we'll all find out that he's been playing rich for years. You know, like people who kite checks. It's only an illusion.

I suspect it's his way of thumbing his nose at how the Mississippi removed the condfederate flag, how the Marines officialled banned the confederate flag, how the protesters are pulling down statues...
If they can "erase" history - than Trump can too.
I suspect the gesture is not lost on those crying about the removals and statues being removed.
FWIW: it would be more clever and sly to LEAVE the portraits there - and then just make fun of them (like school kids do of portraits in schools (of the important people/founders/board members whatever). - I had portraits of people in and religious leaders in my Private GS... and they all had tacky childish nicknames the kids used).
I suspect future presidents will leave Trump's smirking face on the wall and refer to him affectionately as the Cheeto, Drump, and whatever other names arise.
I'm really surprised Trump didn't put up Obama's portrait... so that Trump could refer to him by whatever derogatory nickname he uses for Obama any time someone was in eyeshot of the portrait and earshot of Trump. THAT would have been a better option... (actually, maybe Trump wanted to do that and got vetoed by people who are wiser.)

And here is the rest of the low-down on what DT did. They put the portraits in what was the old family dining room, a room DT doesn't use. That room was redecorated by Michelle so it could be added to the WH tour. So by using it for storage, DT took it off the WH tour too. Melina is just as bad as DT if ya'al remember....she didn't want any help/advice from Michelle, she would use the "experts" for that. She is the same, she just isn't as public as DT is.

I agree the next president should pull Bush and Clinton back out and put them in a prominent position (which is WH protocol - display the most recent presidents prominently) along side the a trump and Obama portraits.
Once the clown car departs, we need to reset everything to the WH traditions and collectively try to erase the last four years of dumpster fires in the Oval Office fro our minds.

No. Hold a joint ceremony. Invite them both. Invite George W. Bush too. And if trump loses to Biden in November, all four past and current presidents can be present at the hanging and rehanging of the portraits in their proper place. Once done, Biden, Obama and Bush can invite trump into the unused room where Obama and Bush's portraits were stored and beat the shit out of him. I also think Michelle Obama and Laura Bush's portraits were removed and relocated too.
