"like he just learned his Big Mac meal doesn’t come with a toy" 😂 Thanks for the morning cackle!

Dorian Gray took one look at this portrait and went, "shit, I like mine better."

He's gone from looking like Lindsey Graham's cousin to Thanos and the Grinch's little brother on a color wheel. Probably a more truthful rendition and should probably be titled, "Absence of Empathy".

He looks formaldehyded. Resembles that dead squirrel I found in a shed in Louisiana, embalmed from years of intense heat and humidity.

It also puts off Vincent Price vibes, no offense intended to Vincent Price who was a much better person.

BWAHA! Nailed it! Agreed, 5/5 stars. "If paintings could whisper, this one would hiss: “You’re fired. And also, you’re under arrest.” - This!

If we had to have his bloated orange face hanging in the Colorado capitol, at least we can ridicule him with this portrait. It is no less than he deserves…. the man who makes fun of disabled reporters should be laughed at from now until the end of time.

It's obviously based on his famous mug shot.

It captures the real him perfectly. 😆🤣😂

“…he looks like a supervillain who’s about to bulldoze the orphanage to build a gold toilet.”
