The White House on Friday hung a painting of President Trump depicting a moment after an

assassination attempt against him last summer - bumping the official portrait of one of his predecessors, Barack Obama. Hanging a new presidential likeness without advance notice is unusual, and Trump putting himself in that space could be seen as him breaking with norms yet again. By tradition, portraits of the two most recent former presidents go on display in the foyer - and Trump is in the unique position of also being a former president.
