This image is the worst piece of presidential optics I have ever seen. The Daily Wire’s (Right bias) Ben Shapiro was quick to criticize the red background, which former Trump White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany called “hellish”: This framing can be seen in one National Review (Right bias) article titled Blood-Red Dark Biden.
