Official Portraits of Trump, Vance Released Before Inauguration Day

The Epoch Times Header

An emailed statement released by the Trump transition team on Thursday shows the official portraits.

The portraits of President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance were revealed to the public on Thursday.

An emailed statement released by the Trump transition team on Thursday show their “official portraits,” which “go hard.”

Trump is seen in a blue suit and blue tie, with one eyebrow raised and looking straight ahead with his mouth shut. Vance, meanwhile, is seen with his arms crossed and wearing a blue suit and blue tie, smiling, and looking straight ahead.

The Trump and Vance portraits were taken by Trump’s chief photographer, Daniel Torok, he confirmed on social media Wednesday. “We are entering the golden age of America,” Torok wrote Wednesday in a separate post, alongside the two portraits.

Donald Trump Jr., the president-elect’s oldest son, and Republican supporters have re-posted the official picture ahead just days before Trump’s swearing-in ceremony on Jan. 20.

The Trump portrait bears some resemblance to a mugshot picture taken of him in Fulton County, Georgia, after he was charged with election-related crimes by the county’s district attorney’s office in 2023. The campaign sold T-shirts, clocks, calendars, and other merchandise emblazoned with the mugshot.

During his 2024 presidential campaign, the president-elect used the mugshot image on campaign materials and posted the photo on social media platform X, the first post he made on the platform in years.

Trump’s deputy chief of staff for policy, Stephen Miller, told Fox News in 2023 that the mugshot picture is the “most powerful image” he’s ever seen. “One man and his two eyes looked straight into the hearts of the American people and said, ‘I will not give up … I will not surrender.’”

Trump will be administered the oath of office at 12 p.m. ET on Jan. 20 by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. Former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton will attend, and Laura Bush and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will join their husbands for the swearing-in ceremony at the U.S. Capitol, representatives said.
