Yes, an artist has painted a portrait of Donald Trump in period blood.

It’s gloriously titled, ‘Whatever’.

What do you do to honour the man who can’t seem to stop sprouting opinions on women and their menstrual cycle? Paint a portrait of him in period blood, obviously.

As Donald Trump continues his quest for world domination by way of running for the President of the United States, he has managed to gloriously offend everyone in his path.

There was that time when he said Mexican immigrants were “usually rapists or drug pushers”, then the time he criticised a Fox News journalist for grilling him with questions, insinuating she must have been having her period.

“You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever,” he said at the time about Fox News’ Megyn Kelly.

You can watch that moment below. Post continues after video. 

That was the last straw for Sarah Levy, a journalist, activist and artist from America, who decided to wait a month for her period and painted a portrait of Trump’s smug face. In her menstrual blood.

She titled it, ‘Whatever’. Behold:

“That he thinks he can bring up the healthy functioning of women’s reproductive systems to insult women’s intelligence is a big problem that I think needs to be called out,” Levy told Buzzfeed.

The photo of her portrait, which she shared on Facebook, has been shared over 100 times. According to Levy, she’s hoping to sell the portrait and donate the proceeds to “an organisation that helps Mexican immigrants in the U.S., because ol’ Don would hate that”.

Or maybe she can give it to Trump as a present? He’d probably criticise her and accuse her of being on her period. And hey, he wouldn’t be wrong.

Am I the only one whose major thought was the portrait colour seems wrong to me because dried blood usually goes brown?
