Provo political painter Jon McNaughton puts Donald Trump at the border with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and others in his progressive rogues’ gallery

Right-wing Provo provocateur painter Jon McNaughton has a new artwork for sale — this time, supporting President Donald Trump’s declaration of a national emergency over conditions at the U.S.-Mexico border.

The artist worked some new faces into his lineup of progressive enemies, including freshman Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, alongside such familiar favorites as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former President Barack Obama.

McNaughton’s latest painting, “National Emergency,” depicts Trump in a presidential bomber jacket, “with his head bowed contemplating the state of our border situation,” according to McNaughton’s description of the painting on his website.
