— Donald J. Trump posted a stylized illustration of a figure resembling himself walking down an ornate corridor, sharing the single image without accompanying text.

The painterly artwork shows a man with light hair in a dark blue suit, white dress shirt and patterned blue necktie, with a small lapel pin resembling a flag. The setting depicts a grand hallway with classical columns, cream and gold walls and a red carpet running down the center. Wall-mounted candelabra fixtures, a framed artwork, a potted plant and a side table appear along the corridor.
