Photographs showing U.S. President Donald Trump with Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Trump and one of his grandchildren hang in the Palm Room of the White House in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026.Kent Nishimura/Bloomberg via Getty Images

A framed picture of President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin hangs in the White House, a photo taken by Bloomberg photographer Kent Nishimura in the Palm Room on Tuesday shows.

The Palm Room connects the West Wing to the White House residence and primarily serves as a lobby, according to the New York Times.

The eyebrow-raising framed photograph in question hangs above a photo of Trump and one of his grandchildren.

Given Trump`s obsession with photos of leaders, it`s almost certainly not an oversight.

According to HuffPost White House correspondent S.V. Dáte, Trump hung up a picture of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in the West Wing in his first term. When he vacated the residence, Trump found a new home for the photo: the bar at Trump Tower in New York.

Last year, Trump had staffers move former President Barack Obama`s official portrait to a corner where most people wouldn`t be able to see it. He did the same with the portraits of former Presidents George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush.

President Joe Biden`s portrait has yet to be completed, but it will undoubtedly receive similar treatment.

In a colonnade just outside the Palm Room, Trump`s installed a "Presidential Walk of Fame" whose sole purpose, it seems, is to troll American leaders not named Donald Trump.
