This is not doctored. Eagle-eyed viewers of the President’s 60 Minute interview noticed a bizarre painting of Donald Trump seated at a table among some of the most notable Republican presidents in history.
In the piece he is seated across from Lincoln, between Presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower and Richard Nixon, with Teddy Roosevelt and Gerald Ford standing behind him. On the far left of the table is Ronald Reagan, with George W. Bush seated next to him and George H.W. Bush standing.
Amazingly Trump, however, did not commission the painting titled The Republican Club. It is the work of Andy Thomas, who also painted The Democratic Club during President Barack Obama’s time in office. The Republican Club was a piece that had been done previously. This was an update to that painting, according to Thomas. It was re-worked to include 45.
Still, Twitter had fun with it.
