He also unveiled some new wall art:
Reuters White House correspondent Jeff Mason posted that Trump replaced a portrait of former first lady Hillary Clinton with this picture/meme of himself:
"That looks really good," this person said.
I'm about 100% sure they were kidding lol.
Another person compared it to something you'd buy at Spencer's Gifts.
This person said it was like the "art" you buy at HomeGoods.
And this person joked, "Cornier than my Italian grandma's velvet painting of a crying clown.'
The comments don't stop there!
This person asked: "They couldn't even go to Framebridge first?"
Another person likened it to, "Your dorm when you and your roommate have different styles."
And this person said, "They're putting Wildwood T-shirts up at the white house."
Snooki's impact.
Thoughts on the new art?!

Auto tariffs seen hiking car prices by nearly $2,000 per vehicle
Car buyers will bear the brunt of the $30 billion cost of President Donald Trump's tariffs, driving up already high US auto prices by almost $2,000 per vehicle, according to consultant AlixPartners. The firm expects auto companies to pass along 80% of the cost of Trump's tariffs — which it calculates as $1,760 more per car. AlixPartners, as part of its annual global automotive outlook, also cautioned that the administration's anti-electric vehicle policies risk relegating American automakers to bit players in the global EV market. 'These tariffs bring a big wall of cost,' Mark Wakefield, global auto market lead for AlixPartners, told reporters in an online briefing. We see 'consumers taking the majority of the hit.' General Motors Co. and Ford Motor Co. have already said they expect a $5 billion and $2.5 billion tariff impact this year, respectively, though they say they will find offsets in part through price adjustments. Those higher prices will result in about 1 million fewer vehicles sold in the US over the next three years, Wakefield said. But the consultant expects US auto sales to reach 17 million in 2030, 1 million more than last year, as the impact of tariffs abates. AlixPartners' predicted sales hit is more muted than some other projections because the firm sees tariff rates falling as the US negotiates trade deals with other countries. It forecasts the 25% auto tariff will ultimately fall to 7.5% on assembled autos, 5% on parts and even lower on cars and parts that are compliant with the US-Mexico-Canada trade agreement. 'This tariff wall is not likely to last forever,' Wakefield said. What's likely to have a longer-lasting impact is the Trump administration's move to reduce and eliminate incentives to spur the sale of electric vehicles, such as the $7,500 consumer tax credit for purchasing a battery powered model, he said. That will steer car buyers away from EVs as they 'follow their pocketbook' and buy traditional gasoline-fueled vehicles, Wakefield said. AlixPartners slashed its forecast for EV sales in the US by nearly half. It now sees battery electric vehicles making up just 17% of US auto sales in 2030, down from a previous prediction that EVs would make up 31% of sales by then. Traditional internal combustion engine vehicles will account for half of US sales in 2030, up from AlixPartners' previous prediction that they would only make up about one-third of sales. The consultant sees traditional hybrids accounting for 27% of the US market in 2030, up from its prior forecast of 24%, while plug-in hybrids and extended-range electric vehicles will account for just 6% of US auto sales by then, down from a previous prediction of 10%. That will hurt US automakers' competitiveness and perhaps even leave them dependent on global EV leader China, Wakefield said. 'It makes it much more likely that they end up licensing or joint venturing or otherwise using platforms and EV technologies from China,' he said in an interview. The 'aggressive take-down of support' for EVs, will leave American automakers with the dubious distinction of being the world leader in big, gas-guzzling engines, a century-old technology that's in decline, Wakefield said. 'They'll have the world's best V8 engines by 2028,' Wakefield said of American automakers. 'They'll probably also have the world's only V8 engines by 2028.' Naughton writes for Bloomberg.

Trump's Disastrous Budget Bill Is Even More Expensive Than We Thought
Donald Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' would increase the total U.S. deficit by nearly $2.8 trillion over the next decade, according to a new analysis from the Congressional Budget Office. Previous estimates suggested that the massive spending bill would add $2.4 trillion to the national deficit over the next 10 years, but a 'dynamic' estimate published Tuesday takes into account how the legislation would affect the U.S. economy—and things got even more dire. The CBO projected that an increase in economic output would decrease the primary deficit by $85 billion over the 2025–2034 period, while also significantly boosting interest rates, which would push the federal debt to a whopping $441 billion. 'Incredible—CBO says the House-passed GOP bill pays for only 3.5% of itself,' Bobby Kogan, the senior director of federal budget policy at the Center for American Progress, wrote on X Tuesday. Despite previous damning reports, MAGA Republicans backing the bill have continued to claim that the CBO is biased, rather than make any concessions, and have claimed that the CBO's evaluations of the legislation's cost don't take the revenue from Trump's sweeping global tariffs into effect. In a letter to Democratic lawmakers earlier this month, the CBO projected that Trump's tariffs, as they were in mid-May, could decrease the deficit by $2.8 trillion—but said any projection came with some uncertainty, as Trump's tariffs are ever-vacillating. The newest analysis suggests that the costs will only go up after taking the economy into account. The CBO estimated that over the next decade, the legislation would affect the economy by increasing gross domestic product by an average of 0.5 percent, increasing the interest rates on 10-year Treasury notes by 14 basis points, and increasing inflation 'by a small amount' through 2030, but not afterward.

Former UK Security Chief Says Bombing Iran 'Is Not Going To Make The World Safer'
A former UK security chief has called on the UK not to back Donald Trump if he decides to bomb Iran – because it will not make the world any safer. Lord Ricketts, who was the government's national security adviser between 2010 and 2012, said air strikes on the Tehran regime would only 'reinforce their determination' to get a nuclear bomb. His comments, on ITV's Peston programme, came as the US president mulls whether to send American planes to bomb Iranian nuclear sites, alongside Israeli jets. CBS News has reported that Trump approved the attack plans on Tuesday night, but has yet to decide whether to put them into action. Speaking at the White House on Wednesday, he said: 'Nobody knows what I'm going to do.' It has also emerged that the British government would have to give America permission if it wanted to use the joint UK-US air base at Diego Garcia in the Chagos Islands to launch its bombing missions. Robert Peston, ITV's political editor, asked Lord Ricketts: 'If he orders an American strike on Iran, what do you think the British prime minister should say? Do you think that we should use British planes to support him?' The crossbench peer said: 'My feeling is we should not, for the simple reason that I think the only way you're going to control Iran's nuclear ambitions in the long term is by having a deal with them. 'I think just coming back and bombing them every few years is not going to make the world safer. In fact it's going to reinforce their determination to keep working on a nuclear weapon when this round of fighting is over. 'Although it's difficult to take a distance from our American ally on this, I think history tells us that you have to be very careful before you get into war, and I would advise not doing so.' 'If Trump orders an American strike…should we use British assets to support him?' 'We should not' Former National Security Adviser @LordRickettsP says bombing Iran will 'only reinforce their determination' for a nuclear weapon and a deal is the only way forward# — Peston (@itvpeston) June 18, 2025 Could The UK Be Dragged Into War As Donald Trump Ponders Bombing Iran?
