Trump has always had terrible taste.
Long before Donald Trump moved into the White House he was known primarily for being a rich blowhard with a wacky comb-over and a tacky sense of taste.
Kevin Williamson of the National Review once called Trump a “ridiculous buffoon with the worst taste since Caligula.”
Trump’s Manhattan penthouse is a testament to tackiness with its gaudy gold decor, Louis XIV furnishings, classically-themed paintings, chandeliers, and golden cherubs.

Some feared that Trump’s sense of style would make its way to the White House and, thank god, it hasn’t. But a “60 Minutes” piece on the president that aired on Sunday, October 14, shows Trump has hung a fantasy portrait of himself hanging out with a group fellow Republican presidents.
\nTrump had this horrific piece commissioned. It’s a fantasy painting of GOP presidents hanging out with him. I feel it’s in need of a caption. Internet, do your thing. pic.twitter.com/4yjdkC2wOt

The painting has been criticized for being too low-brow for the White House. While others have compared it to a painting of dogs playing poker, or worse, the type of propaganda produced for the leaders of North Korea.

The painting has also inspired the wonderful people of Twitter to create their own versions of the painting featuring Trump hanging out with autocrats, fellow sexual predators, and, of course, dogs playing poker.
Trump and the team of clowns he surrounds himself with, including: Vladimir Putin, Kanye West, Sean Hannity, and Brett Kavanaugh.

Trump and his fellow Republicans burning in Dante’s Inferno.
\nI heard rumors of Trump putting up a painting of him drinking with other Republican presidents in the White House. I for one, think its pretty good. pic.twitter.com/qLRa1K84xO

This one replaced Lincoln with Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
\nI had a lot of requests to add the #SaudiPrince into my “#Putin” alteration of the Republican Party painting with Trump.

Seeing as how they can no longer claim to be the “Party of Lincoln”—I thought it would be fitting to replace him.
