That MLK mugshot is exactly what Trump's is not - an uncalculated and genuine image of a long-suffering, thoughtful person with the courage of their conviction. Trump's is that of a rehearsed wanna-be tough guy trying to project his contempt for being held accountable for their actions. Thanks Steve. Keep on comrade:)

I've been envisioning Trump's face on a dart board from his early days as president the first time. I still go for Portrait of Dorian Gray because that man was unquestionably evil.
It’s the Kubrick stare. It’s the look Stanley Kubrick gives a character in his movies when he wants you to know that person has gone completely off the rails.
We can't say they didn't warn us... but conservatives will say it anyway. Get ready for "There's no way we could have known he'd do the terrible things he said he'd do!" and "But I didn't think he'd do it _to me!_ "
Or when he leaves office pepare for the republicans for the inevitable "Oopsie poopsie, we didnt know the dementia ridden elderly toddler was gonna kill a bunch of people and caused a great depression, pls dont be mad uwu" Playing victim as usual
To me, Trump's mugshot looked pathetic. He looked like a child who was scolded by his mommy, ready to burst out into tears while trying to look "tough". What a weak little man. And it's hilarious to me, that he tried to capture that same level of weakness for his official presidency portrait.
My first impression exactly - busted out laughing when I saw it 'cause I've seen that look on every one of my children at some point when they were little and were mad that I wouldn't let them do what they wanted.
Hell, when he got nicked in the earlobe, his cult were saying, Trump took a bullet to the head and it didn't even slow him down." It's like they are living some kind of fan fiction fantasy. 🤣
The "fan fiction" continued and reached a new and even more awful height when a portrait of Jesus with a bandage on his right ear, started circulating on the Internet.
@deanevangelista6359 That was actually the first thing I though when I saw it. Another funny thing about it is, when I first saw the picture, the goofy one where he's raising his fist in the air like he's a tough guy, and not a bunker b**ch, the fist time I saw it it looked like there was a lot less blood. Then, every pic I saw after look like it had more added to. It, like Photoshopped. I could be wrong, idk. But I did think it was a stunt to stir up the base. It was a little too well timed.

Four years. That’s… bless your heart if you think the MAGA regime will only last four years. America as we have known it was dead the moment he won reelection.
@@solarisone1082And if that's not enough, I may expect that Trump is likely planning to bluff more power to himself like his close buddy Netanyahu of Israel's Likud party. Both are overconfident and incompetent fools who refuse to listen anyone's distrust of them.
"We're in for an interesting 4 years." Funny you should say that. It reminds me of what is considered in China to be the most horrible curse you can wish upon another: "May you live in interesting times."
Bateman is shown to idolize Trump in the book, but interestingly I don't even think the Joker would like Trump. One, Trump isn't funny. Two, Trump is a fascist, and Joker made it clear to the Red Skull that while he's a lunatic, he's an AMERICAN lunatic. Three, Trump causes more chaos to the world on a daily basis than Joker can cause to Gotham in a year, so he'd feel offended that his title of the Clown Prince of Crime would go to Trump.
On Monday while Trump hides inside, go support your local Martin Luther King Jr parade. I'd rather celebrate a great American and hope for the future than MAGA hiding inside and looking back.
Compare Trump's official portrait to portraits of Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Ion Antonescu, Muammar Gaddaffi, Idi Amin, and others; same glowering look. The portrait doesn't scare me, but the thought of what he will do,or try to do absolutely frightens me. His pea brain is the most dangerous thing about him.
On one hand, it's really funny how the right continues to embrace the aesthetics of literal supervillains, but on the other hand it's really scary how the right continues to embrace the aesthetics of literal supervillains.

Take pity on the current federal employees who have to see that face every time they are in the office, which might be 5 days a week.
Wow. Seeing the older pictures he's really aged. Not that he ever looked young. It's amazing he got away with running as the younger healthier candidate. He looks like death barely warmed over.
That is the face that will be looking over the dining areas all over military bases and in post offices for the next four years. Thinking about it makes me think about background gags in movies where the whole point is to have something out of place for a laugh.
Not just galleys and chow halls, most quarterdecks and working spaces or offices have the chain of command from the local chain up to the prez. This is gonna look SOOO GOOFY next to our officers taking proper portraits in uniform.
If by "goes hard", you mean "tries too hard", I absolutely agree. Also, what's wrong with his face? He's got one eye squinting, and the other popping out of his head.
That's him trying to look powerful I guess. Like he's watching you and judging you. It would be hilarious if he wasn't coming into office in less than a week.
Is anyone else noticing the asymmetry in how open his eyes are? If he's doing it on purpose to make a face fine... but if he's not. Facial asymmetry can be a sign of neurological damage.
That's it! For a photography class I photographed my dad holding a flashlight under his face, mugging for the camera. It was really funny. It was not a presidential portrait though. 🤦♀️

It's important to keep saying the truth that Trump is weak. He's not tough. His ego is more fragile than most people's because he's mentally ill. He has narcissistic personality disorder and sociopathy. He's no model of strength. He's a model of one of the weakest men to live in modern times.
Idk why he can't just do a neutral expression or one that conveys quiet thoughtfulness which would be appropriate for a state official portrait (it's not a candid shot folks, it's a formal portrait) Instead we get Trump's attempt at Blue Steel & he just looks angry, not serious or determined. God I hate this timeline.
Trump’s expression portraying thoughtfulness??? Regardless of what Trump thinks, he is t nearly a good enough actor to express thoughtfulness!! The blank “tough guy” wannabe is about as good as it gets.
Worry is like sitting in a rocking chair, you might be moving but you’re not getting anywhere. Take care of yourselves, be kind to yourself. Stick with positive people that you trust.
The problem is it's almost impossible to produce a picture of Trump, staged or candid, where he DOESN'T look like a lunatic or an imbecile, because well... That being said, they should've gone with the one taken of him for Time magazine in 2019 where he's sitting in the Oval Office. That one's actually not bad; he actually resembles an authentic human being in that shot.
Lawd, I gotta look at that at work (for a federal office) over the next 4 years. I imagine he wants to inspire fear. Perhaps if we all say he looks ugly his vanity will kick in and he decides to take a new picture.
You're right - that's not a serious inauguration picture. He's always mocking his supporters. and he has an expressive face that can both pose for his followers and look at us with: "look, they believed me again!"
Vance's portrait looks AI upscaled and YES, he looks like a shady used car salesman 🤣. Trump's new portrait looks like it should belong on a match card during an episode of wrestling (pick whatever company pops up in your head). Hell, I'm tempted to take that pic and edit it 😂.
When I saw it, I thought it was a photoshop of his mugshot.
... Isn't it, though? Cut I was working on a zine that had that mug shot, but just a silhouette... And because I traced his mugshot with a light table...i spent an unhealthy amount of time looking at it.

Trump looks more like Dr. Frankenstein’s assistant Igor.
Even Lindsey Lohan had better mugshots than Trump. 😂
Are u surprised? SHE is actually human...
It, uh...looks like Palpatine there, doesn't it? Well, get your Rebel gear on, folks, cause the Emperor is ascending. 🤞
I thought it was AI, but that has the word 'Intelligence' in it.
😂😂😂
It's the portrait of a criminal who is desperately running from the consequences of his own actions.
Worry is like sitting in a rocking chair, you might be moving but you’re not getting anywhere. Take care of yourselves, be kind to yourself. Stick with positive people that you trust.
Pretty much everything is about to get really stupid. Darkness is descending like a four year-long solar eclipse.
I’m still trying to recover from my state of sheer disbelief.
The problem is it's almost impossible to produce a picture of Trump, staged or candid, where he DOESN'T look like a lunatic or an imbecile, because well... That being said, they should've gone with the one taken of him for Time magazine in 2019 where he's sitting in the Oval Office. That one's actually not bad; he actually resembles an authentic human being in that shot.
Lawd, I gotta look at that at work (for a federal office) over the next 4 years. I imagine he wants to inspire fear. Perhaps if we all say he looks ugly his vanity will kick in and he decides to take a new picture.
It's impressive that the darkest areas of JD Vance's portrait are his eyelids
You're right - that's not a serious inauguration picture. He's always mocking his supporters. and he has an expressive face that can both pose for his followers and look at us with: "look, they believed me again!"
Fvck… that man’s going to bring HECK. (Sarcasm Mode fully engaged.)
He looks like he's holding a flashlight below his face like he's getting ready to tell and ghost story.
He is!
Colbert zoomed out on that picture and that was his punchline. I hadn’t seen it officially, so I didn’t know the whole thing wasn’t a gag.
Ha! True!
Vance's portrait looks AI upscaled and YES, he looks like a shady used car salesman 🤣. Trump's new portrait looks like it should belong on a match card during an episode of wrestling (pick whatever company pops up in your head). Hell, I'm tempted to take that pic and edit it 😂.
