On 29 November 2016, the web site The Hill reported that a portrait of Hillary Clinton was featured among the White House's Christmas decorations: This image is real. However, several web sites (such as WebDaily.com and FreedomDaily.com) distorted The Hill's report and published articles reporting that President Obama had hung something sick at the White House as a middle finger to Donald Trump: This portrait was not placed on the White House walls by President Obama, nor was it first unveiled in some sort of retaliation attempt against Donald Trump's election. This portrait has been hanging in the White House since 2004, when it was unveiled by President George W. Bush alongside another portrait of another former president, Bill Clinton: Hillary Clinton was not the only former first lady whose portrait was surrounded by Christmas decorations in 2016. A brief look through Getty Images revealed similar photographs, showing (for example) Claudia Alta Lady Bird Johnson and Laura Bush: To sum up: Twelve years after a portrait of Hillary Clinton was first put on a White House wall, two snowmen were placed near it as part of this year's holiday decorations.
