Looking at it, I can only assume he actually does..

Seriously though, to give credit where credit is due, at least Trump's photographer was able to make him look like he has a chin...

That knot in ol' T-Bone's tie there says it all. Everything you need to know about him is on the table in that shot.

I'm not sure what you're getting at? Looks like a perfectly normal Windsor knot to me? Educate me on the subtleties, oh Master :-)


LOL.

LOOK at those knots man. Pence has a nice dimple, the tie is straight, etc.

Trumps literally looks like 14 year old me tied it. That's bad. Really really bad.

A proper knot should be symmetrical, and have a beautiful single dimple that is well centered and clean.

(There are probably exceptions that prove the rule, but... this is the rule)

This PS "makeover's been going around for a while...

I like this much better except hair needs to be trimmed over the ears. Clip the top clean, comb and spray that flyaway hair in place. As I've always thought a bald head makes the eyes look much better. He needs to wipe that smirky (one of my granddaughter's words) look off his face. I almost forgot trim those bushy brows.

Trump's has the crooked edge of a picture frame on the right of the image and the shoulder fall off. And, what is with that wallpaper? However, it is head and shoulders over his first presidential photo, so I suppose there is progress. Image included in the meme on GeneralE's post here. And unless the WHite House is replete with flags draped identically, with Pence, at least they put up blue seamless behind him.

So, in a basket of deplorables choice, I'd say Pence.

My chiropractor commissioned this poster -- fortunately I was able to snag the original "Official Presidential Portrait" before this latest update ... the good thing about those official portraits is they are in the public domain -- feel free to add "Groucho Glasses" if you want. :-)

OMG yes! .... and the exif being stripped from the President's photo is definitely the kicker.

I'm retracting my previous statement that the photographer who did Vice President Pence's photo did a better job...

Trump isn't so orange in his shot... Given his skin tone I'd actually have to say the photographer did a hell of a job... Lol.

Best comment of the day! Thanks for making me giggle.

To me, Pence's looks better in terms of lighting, background, and his smile looks more relaxed. Overall, I would kind of expect better for an official presidential portrait. However, I imagine these guys are busy -- I don't expect the process is like an all day Annie Leibovitz cover shoot.


now that would have been something.

Lol. The comedic value that these photos has stirred up around social media and whatnot is so good.

Pence obviously respects the flag more, he's wearing red, white and blue!

Hands down Pence's photo is better. I saw a review of this on my facebook feed from FroKnowsPhoto's Jared Pollen (spelling?). He does a pretty good job explaining why it's a junk photo of President Trump.
