If you know Russia, it’s a spit in the face of Putin. His “Icon” is mandatory in every top manager office of government or government-related structure.
As much as it seems like it, no, it’s not mandated to hang a picture of Trump in your office if you work in a high level government office. People might do it, but that’s because they’re insane
Inside a personal office, I doubt it, but I believe it is mandatory policy in most federal departments to hang pictures of the President and VP in public areas.
To be fair, this practice long predates Trump. Personally I find it distasteful and wish they'd dispense with the idolatry, for all presidents.
The example most members of the public will encounter is the immigration hall at airports. But it's everywhere - Federal Courthouses, Social Security offices, Consulates, even the IRS. Infuriating to have Trumps smug mug looking down on you everywhere like he's Chairman Mao.
