'Insecure baby' Trump mocked for criticism of public portrait
The Guardian
|March 25, 2025
Donald Trump's critics aimed ridicule at the president after he publicly demanded the removal of his portrait at Colorado's state capitol building, calling it "truly the worst".
In a post on his Truth Social platform on Sunday, Trump shared an image of the portrait and complained about the painting, saying it was bad and blaming it on Colorado's governor, Jared Polis - whom the president insulted as being "radically left".
A Republican admirer of Trump commissioned the portrait.
In two follow-up posts, Trump shared separate images of himself in an apparent attempt to distribute photos that he considered more flattering.
Liberal and anti-Trump commentators laughed at the president's reaction on social media.
