President Trump on Sunday criticized his portrait at the Colorado State Capitol, demanding that Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat, take it down.

State of play: Trump claimed the oil painting was “purposefully distorted” in a post on Truth Social, and criticized the artist, saying “she must have lost her talent as she got older.”

• The artist, Sarah Boardman of Colorado Springs, also crafted a portrait of President Obama, which hangs beside Trump’s in a collection of U.S. presidents at the state Capitol.

Context: A former Republican state lawmaker raised almost $11,000 in 2018 to help pay for the portrait due to a lack of donations for the commissioned work, per the Denver Post.

What they’re saying: “The artist also did President Obama, and he looks wonderful, but the one on me is truly the worst,” Trump wrote over the weekend.

The other side: “Gov. Polis was surprised to learn the President of the United States is an aficionado of our Colorado State Capitol and its artwork,” the governor’s spokesperson Shelby Wieman said in a statement to Axios Denver.

• Wieman said the governor’s office always looks, “for any opportunity to improve our visitor experience.”
