Because we all need a bit of levity among all the outrageous things #45 is doing.
The Trumps apparently requested the loan of a painting by Van Gogh from the Guggenheim. They wanted to hang it in their living quarters in the White House. Seriously, they did this.
Unsurprisingly, the museum's chief curator turned down their request with very polite-but-firm language, but she suggested an alternative exhibit, entitled "America." Created by artist Maurizio Cattelan, this piece is of a completely different nature than the painting requested by the trumps. It is also a million times more "on the nose," to put it mildly.
