#1 Wasn't there a picture of Obama with his feet up on the Resolute Desk?

#4 Possible malware. You really should rename the pictures with a much shorter name, no more than 32 characters long if possible. Long file names is a great way to infect your machines with malware.

Where are you getting these pictures from anyway? I would suggest you not use pictures from that site, or at least change your naming policies.

#5 Yes Rob, I've seen several photos of the One® with his feet (and shoes) on the desk.

#8 Your absolutely right!

She belongs under the desk like Monica Lewinsky!

(do I really need a /sarc here?)

#9 Of course, the REAL story here is that Trump, supposedly racist, was meeting with the heads of historically black colleges. Totally ignored by the press.

#10 Leave Kellyanne alone; she brightens the day for many. It seems that some people just like to bitch about everything.

#11 Trying to gin up outrage. The lady took a photo with her cell phone from the best vantage point, as cell phone photographers do, and no doubt immediately shared it with the pleased participants.

With the counter-examples of President Obama out there so quickly, it will fizzle out quickly.

#12 Looks like she was trying not to obstruct the official photo.

I'm not sure how she gets into that position with her shoes on, but ok.

#15 Trump aide Conway draws ire for kneeling on White House sofa

Hey, at least Trumps aides have their clothes on when they are on the sofa.

#17 The genious is that by having her on the couch everyone paid attention to a story they otherwise would have tried to ignore. Then the following photo comes out showing she was taking a photo of the group and the complainers look stupid. It's a two-fer.

Sorry I forgot the apostrophe:

Trumps ==> Trump's

Surely that's what you meant. ;-)

#21 Did the incident involve interns, cigars and a blue dress? Was it necessary to hose down the Oval Office with bleach afterwards? If not STFU lefty media.

#22 The Pope and current POTUS were on a boat together. The Pope's hat flew off in gust and landed on the water. The Pope and members of his entourage tried, tried but couldn't retrieve the Pope's hat. Trump said, "I'll get it for you" and got down onto the water, walked across the water and retrieved the Pope's hat. The next day the NYTs headline boldly stated "Trump can't swim."

#23 Yeah, right. Her knees were on the couch (bad) not on the floor (OK) in the Oval Office.

#24 "My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw boredom forever. Kellyanne begins photobombing in five minutes."
