President Donald Trump held a fancy New Year’s Eve party at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida. During the event, he sold a newly painted portrait of Jesus Christ for $2.75 million. The painting was created by artist Vanessa Horabuena.
According to HuffPost, before the final price was reached, Trump made fun of someone who offered $1 million for the painting. The person was described as a major Wall Street figure. “He’s the biggest guy on Wall Street, so that’s peanuts,” the president said. “Don’t let that red hat fool you. He wears that so that he sort of takes people by surprise before he pumps the money out of their wallets.”
