[There’s some evidence that it’s at one of his golf courses.](https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/a-clue-to-the-whereabouts-of-the-6-foot-tall-portrait-of-donald-trump/2016/09/14/ae65db82-7a8f-11e6-ac8e-cf8e0dd91dc7_story.html)

What’s more pathetic than spending big bucks on a portrait of yourself? Being the only one whose 6-foot portrait didn’t get any bids. Was his the only portrait painted at that event?

Well, Trump might not be aware of that political storm furor over Robert Kennedy - or might still try nepotism anyway. He is often reinventing the wheel.

He’ll probably say the nepotism law doesn’t apply to him, because he has earned a YOOOOGE mandate.
