The iconic image of President Trump raising his fist, blood streaming down his face, just moments after an assassination attempt last summer is causing some stir online.

The president has replaced a portrait of former President Obama in the White House Entrance Hall with an artist's rendering of the Butler, Pennsylvania, photo.

The White House posted a brief video on X revealing the new artwork:

Another post drew attention to the fact a portrait of Obama had once hung in the same spot.

And, predictably, some were unhappy with the change, as evidenced by the following post and response:

Red State reported that the Obama portrait was still there, just positioned elsewhere in the Entrance Hall. And The Hill acknowledged it's "not unusual for the presidential portraits at the White House to be rearranged after a new commander in chief enters the Oval Office."
