The painting reportedly made its way to the White House after California Republican Rep. Darrell Issa showed it to the president, according to Time. Trump apparently loved the painting so much that he called Thomas to tell him.
While many were busy mocking Trump's intense admiration of the fantasy painting, some took note of a blurry-faced woman who appears in the background of this image and"The Democratic Club," a similar painting by Thomas that features Obama seated with Democratic presidents. It turns out the woman was included intentionally to represent a potential future female president.

"That will be the first Republican female president and the first Democratic female president," Thomas told Time."As I was doing the painting, I was thinking that these guys are kind of intimidating in a way. That's the kind of woman that will be our first woman president; she'll walk right up to that table."

Thomas specializes in this style of painting -- he's made multiple versions featuring past presidents. And we all know how much Trump loves aspirational imagery, as evidenced by that fake Time cover that hung in several of his golf courses.
