Canadian actor Jim Carrey has been posting political cartoons on social media for a while now. However, when he posted his new portrait of the US president Donald Trump, things got tricky. His cartoons stirred some controversy after he submitted his latest artistic rendering of Donald Trump to the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery for consideration as the official presidential portrait. “Dear Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, I know it’s early but I’d like to submit this as the official portrait of our 45th President, Donald J. Trump. It’s called, ‘You Scream. I Scream. Will We Ever Stop Screaming?'” he tweeted.

The picture shows a nipple-fingering Trump screaming as he eats from what appears to be a bowl containing two scoops of ice cream. Though the picture screams *pun intended*, as soon as the picture surfaced on social media, people who responded seemed to enjoy the “art” attack.
