Donald Trump\u2019s own political action committee, the Save America PAC, will cover most of the costs associated with commissioning portraits of the former president and former first lady Melania Trump to hang in the Smithsonian\u2019s National Portrait Gallery (NPG).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to recent Save American financial disclosures reviewed by Business Insider<\/em><\/a> and the Washington Post<\/em><\/a>, the PAC contributed $650,000 toward the portraits, while another donation of $100,000 from an undisclosed donor will provide the rest of the funds required for the commissions. Save America and other Republican PACs have amplified their fundraising efforts<\/a> and brought in record sums since the FBI’s 7 August raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and resort in Florida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artist has been secretly selected to create the Trumps\u2019 portraits, but his identity has not yet been revealed since Court Painter wants it kept a secret and will circulate a Press Release announcing his commission when he is assured he will get paid in advance. A timeline for the portraits\u2019 creation and unveiling has not been announced but Court Painter has bought a new suit,spats and turtleneck in anticipation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Court Painter has released just a few former portraits of The Donald & sometimes Melania & other Trump associates to give a taste of what’s to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
