Man Behind Famous Obama Painting Does 1 for Trump, The Difference Is Undeniable

John McNaughton, the artist behind “The Forgotten Man,” a famous painting depicting former President Obama standing on the Constitution, has created a companion piece featuring President Trump.

“You Are Not Forgotten,” the latest painting by political artist John McNaughton, is a clear parallel to his earlier work featuring former President Obama. In “The Forgotten Man” a man representing the American people can be seen with his head hung low sitting on a park bench. President Obama is standing to his left, intentionally ignoring the forgotten man, while stepping on the Constitution. In contrast, “You Are Not Forgotten” features the same forgotten man except now he is accompanied by his wife and daughter and they are watching a tree grow with the blessing of President Trump, who is standing on the head of a snake.

“Now, because of unconstitutional acts imposed upon the American people by our government, we stand on the precipice of disaster,” McNaughton said in a video, describing his work featuring former President Obama. “The painting symbolically suggests the actions of Barack Obama, as well as other presidents. Yes, their actions speak louder than words, as do the brushstrokes in my painting.”

The tone and tenor of “The Forgotten Man” depicts a great pessimism for the future of America. While formulating the Obama painting, McNaughton asked himself, “if the presidents of the past could speak to us today what would they say?” By the expressions on their face, McNaughton makes it clear that earlier presidents would not appreciate modern trends. In all, the mood of “The Forgotten Man” is gloomy, and expresses deep fears for the future of America.

“You Are Not Forgotten,” however, reveals a distinct change in the artist’s mood. The picture represents great optimism for the future of America, and the dismantling of the Washington elite.

“Last year we elected President Trump,” explained McNaughton. “He expressed by his words and demeanor what Americans wanted – a man who was not going to bow down to Washington or other countries. A man that would not forget the “forgotten men and women” of this country who elected him.”

Indeed, the forgotten man featured in both paintings is booming with optimism next to President Trump, while his future looked bleak with former President Obama nearby. The artist represents this optimism in the form of the tree. A loving family is supporting the man who is looking fondly at the new life springing up before him, representing a newfound hope for the future of our country.

By the end of the video, McNaughton shared some of his own hopes for the future. “I want a president that will crush the enemies of liberty, justice, and American prosperity,” he explained.

The snake crushed by President Trump in the painting represents the enemies to liberty – the enemies of the American people. President Trump is an outsider taking down the Washington elite, and as McNaughton explains, “They may have the power to bruise his heel, but he will have the power to crush their head!”

Rosie O’Donnell Calls for Trump Assassination… REGRETS IT IMMEDIATELY!

Rosie O’Donnell and Donald Trump have been engaged in a bitter feud for over a decade. Rosie’s hatred for Trump has only escalated since he became president, but this week, she took things way too far when she called for him to be assassinated. It didn’t take long for Rosie to learn that she’d made a huge mistake… Mad World News reported that Rosie took to Twitter on Saturday to endorse a ridiculous new game called Push Trump Off A Cliff Again. The despicable game allows players to kill Trump by pushing him off a cliff. Push Trump Off A Cliff Again https://t.co/YguB3aG8EP — ROSIE (@Rosie) July 15, 2017 The virtual game instructs players to “Take out your frustrations with [the] President by pushing him off a virtual cliff, or into a virtual volcano.” An image of Trump screams things like “Bye!” and “I’m really rich!” as he tumbles to his death. Twitter users immediately fired back at Rosie and let her know that simulating the assassination of the president is never okay. Bett

WALSH: Yes, Ilhan Omar’s Alleged Adultery Matters. Here’s Why.

According to court documents, Rep. Ilhan Omar allegedly had an affair with a married DC consultant. The wife of Omar’s alleged lover made the claims in divorce filings, insisting that her marriage was ultimately destroyed by the tryst between the congresswoman and her husband. Previous reports claimed that Omar “dumped” her own husband earlier in the summer. Conventional modern wisdom would tell us that the only newsworthy and relevant aspect of this salacious story is the possible abuse of campaign funds, as reported by the Washington Examiner: Omar’s alleged paramour, Tim Mynett, has been a fundraising consultant for Omar’s 2018 and 2020 campaigns… …Of the $145,406 reported earnings by the E Street Group during the 2018 campaign cycle, $62,674 came from Omar’s campaign. Not counting payroll taxes and transfers to Minnesota’s Democratic Party, E Street Group was Omar’s second-largest vendor, according to FEC data. From Labor Day through the end of the year, E Street Group ate up mo

Newly Declassified FBI Materials Show Bureau Treated Clinton, Trump Campaigns Differently On Foreign Interference

FBI documents and communications that were recently declassified show the bureau treated foreign interference on Hillary Clinton’s campaign differently than it did with President Donald Trump’s campaign. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) released the documents on Sunday with a lengthy statement about the contents: There was a clear double standard by the Department of Justice and FBI when it came to the Trump and Clinton campaigns in 2016. These newly released documents indicate that a foreign government was trying to influence the Clinton campaign through a campaign associate and the FBI was seeking a FISA warrant. However, the Bureau, as it is supposed to do, required that Hillary Clinton be defensively briefed about the matter so she could engage in corrective action. When it came to the Trump campaign, there were four counterintelligence investigations opened against Trump campaign associates. Not one time was President Trump defensively briefed about th
