Obama broke the 240 yo tradition of the peaceful transition of power when he spied and unmasked the incoming administration!

@@tilenletonja9651 “spied and unmasked the incoming administration!” really? like how Drump and his cronies kept trying to force negative propaganda towards Hunter Biden’s laptop/Burisma, #45 enforces negative ads to make Biden look bad, he is a president full of negativity spreading his hatred across the world, while Biden and the rest of the world want to move on from Drump for good. Donny can go play golf to his hearts content and die in peace if he just concedes with grace, yet Dump and his cult followers are too stubborn and inept to face the end...

Nancy Regan's painting is gorgeous, I like the Kennedy's but it don't represent the time period - One of the things I enjoy about these paintings and pictures is they give little secrets of the time they lived in. the clothes and so forth (although they are beautiful painting very good likeness and the glow seems to suggest the importance of the job he had and the man he was. George W. Bush picture and likeness is gorgeous but Laura's I'm sorry she is a beautiful lady and this painting doesn't compliment her IMO .
