Former first lady Michelle Obama took an apparent dig at former President Trump, highlighting the significance of a peaceful transition of power once a presidency comes to an end.
The Obamas returned to the White House on Wednesday for the unveiling of their official White House portraits, after Trump didn't follow the traditional protocol of welcoming them for an official event while he was in office.
Both President Biden and first lady Jill Biden were on hand for the ceremony but none of the Trump family members joined.
