President-elect Donald Trump's inaugural portrait has captured the nation's attention, stirring excitement and commentary before his swearing-in ceremony next week, Breitbart reported.
The newly released inaugural portrait is generating significant attention across social media, with many supporters celebrating its bold and unflinching tone. The portrait reveals a stern and serious Trump, sparking widespread commentary about his readiness to assume office again.
The portrait, released Wednesday night, shows Trump with a resolute expression many have likened to his now-famous mugshot. The image has been widely shared online, with Donald Trump Jr. sharing it on Instagram with the caption, "47 Official portrait revealed."
Social media reactions were swift and enthusiastic. "This is so hardcore, I love it!" one commenter declared. Others highlighted Trump's demeanor, noting his focused, determined look. One user remarked, "He means BUSINESS … daddy's home," while another added, "47 very different than 45."
The comments continued to pour in with similar enthusiasm:
- "This is the hardest pic I've ever seen."
- "Those are the eyes of a man going into a final war against the new world order globalist regime. Fury and restoring the republic, godspeed."
- "From a mugshot to an inauguration photo. I can't wait until the liberals cry when he gets sworn in."
- "Battle ready."
On X, users echoed similar sentiments, with some calling the portrait "badass" and others praising Trump's apparent resolve. Notable commentator Juanita Broaddrick described the photo as, "This is one badass photo — just like the man himself," while another observed, "He is aging in reverse."
The inaugural ceremony, scheduled for Monday, will mark Trump's return to office. Festivities throughout the day will include a parade led by first responders from the Butler, Pennsylvania, assassination attempt, as confirmed by Republican National Committee Chair Michael Whatley.
Adding to the day's spectacle, Trump's infamous garbage truck is expected to appear in the Inaugural Parade, and The Village People are slated to perform. Supporters are already anticipating seeing Trump reprise his iconic dance moves.
