United States President Donald Trump voiced his dissatisfaction with a portrait of himself displayed in the Colorado State Capitol, saying it was "purposefully distorted."

"Nobody likes a bad picture or painting of themselves, but the one in Colorado, in the State Capitol, put up by the Governor, along with all other Presidents, was purposefully distorted to a level that even I, perhaps, have never seen before," he wrote on Truth Social. Trump said that compared to his portrait, which he described as "truly the worst," the one of former President Barack Obama is "wonderful."

"In any event, I would much prefer not having a picture than having this one, but many people from Colorado have called and written to complain. In fact, they are actually angry about it," Trump wrote, posting a couple of his other portraits shortly after.
