I remember there was a big fuss about Trump not letting the Obamas in for their official portrait so they had to wait for Biden. Now that Biden is in, when are we going to see the official White House Trump portraits, I wonder?

Batchman – You got the story correct but THESE portraits (above) where commissioned for the National Portrait Gallery in D.C. What you where referring to are the Official Presidential Portraits that are hung in the White House.
