Why are they all male?
Because they gave us Hillary Clinton and expected us to vote for her just because she’s a woman despite her being absolutely awful. Better than Trump, but so fucking bad.
Hilary Clinton sat for eleven hours straight in front of a panel of hostile GOPs. They had weeks to prepare. Hilary sat there, answered every question completely, and walked away. You may not like her, but she was certainly ready for the job.
Getting greater than a percent more of the popular vote over Donald fuggin’ Trump would probably classify her as “ready for the job” over being able to field Benghazi questions.
I mean, she’s certainly good at preparing to give testimony for bullshit accusations against her, a skill her husband probably helped her cultivate given his presidency.
But she was also one of the most broadly hated politicians in the country. She only had a chance of winning because her opponent was Trump and Trump is just that awful. To be fair, virtually any other GOP candidate would have crushed Hillary and virtually any other Dem would have crushed Trump.
Honestly at the start of the 2016 primaries I had hoped for Sanders v Carson, if only to see how many GOP would refuse to vote for black man from their own party.
Because obviously women can’t be trusted to run a country /s

Crazy to think the vast majority of the presidents are painted and then it shows the progression of our ability to capture high definition photos. Technology seems to be a recently exponential progression.
I think it’s kind of a bummer we’ve shifted away from painting. The painted portrait seems more regal and meaningful here.
Soo, stupid question, but don’t paintings require the subject to sit still for quite a while? Is is possible to take a picture and use that for the basis of the painting?

I believe almost all portrait paintings now are done with a photo
Wow, government portraits no less
Damn, we’ve had some real shitty presidents.
If only Obama’s was made with him in the tan suit.
I’m only here for it if he’s also wearing the bike helmet.
why does JFK look so sad?
He read the book. He knows what’s happening but cannot change the narrative.
Mistress #6 found out about Mistress #7
ha!
Losing a chunk of your head generally does that.
(If you seriously want an answer, that’s his official White House portrait, painted that way specifically because his death)
Am I dumb or is there one missing?
Grover Cleveland was president in two nonconsecutive terms, but he’s only pictured once.
Interesting, thanks!
Wait, when was Steve Martin president?

You forgot Biden with his hood on !
Oh look, 43 war criminals, Jimmy Carter, and Abraham Lincoln
Hey! Don’t forget about East Timor!
It’s not a war crime if it’s against the British Empire.
Please amend “Slave Owners” to your list, ty.
Ya during those wars those presidents were totally nice to the native Americans
It’s not a war crime if you don’t declare war first taps wig
Did Theodore Roosevelt do any war crimes? Like maybe with the rough riders? But Im drawing blanks.
The whole panana thing was p sketchy but since it wasn’t technically an American war it isn’t a war crime.
Also war crimes weren’t really “invented” until Nuremberg so in some sense no one committed war crimes until then. Somewhat more awkwardly the nazis tried at Nuremberg were being judged by laws that weren’t really codified until after they had committed them.
Imo war crimes isn’t really a good way of phrasing it bc unlike a nations legal code which is usually fairly black and white, war crimes are international and therefore a lot more subject to politics. I’m glad they were punished but I wish it hadn’t been execution in so many cases, and it has been called something like “acts unbecoming of a human”. Something nasty but definitely not related to the legal system.
Weird way to say 45 war criminals
Lincoln was absofuckinglutely a war criminal. Now did his victims deserve it? Listen if anyone deserves war crimes it’s the confederacy. But yeah definitely did war crimes. Sherman’s march to the sea was the most based war crime there ever was.
Nixon looking sharp AF
Are you saying Tricky Dick got the Drip?
Oh did Obama not get a proper painted portrait done? That’s kind of a shame.
Evidently he did, but I just ripped this off of an eBay listing for a poster, then added Trump and Biden.
Fair enough
He did yes, but it was not a traditional portrait. He’s in front of a bright green backdrop of vining plants while sitting in a chair. Admittedly it was an interesting composition but the actual painting work was subpar, unfortunately.
That looks like a street mural. Not bad album art, though. I don’t hate it, but I wish it was better.
That mugshot is a commemorative coin that I would actually buy
I bought a bunch of silver last year, and Trump rounds (look like coins, but are just round bullion) were flying off the shelves. I kept my fool mouth shut every time I saw them. However, like you, if they made one with a Trump mugshot, I’d buy a tube of twenty five of them, and ask if they can produce a ten ounce bar with it on there.
Hot take: more of these guys should be locked up.
I mean, most of them are if you consider a coffin “locked up.”
And only 2 are really smiling.
At least 3 are, you missed Ronald Reagan is smiling.
True, should have said “grinning”.
