Trump cutout among pranks left at Executive Mansion for Youngkin [View all]

A life-size cutout of former President Trump reportedly greeted Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) when he entered his office for one of his first days of work - one of several pranks left by Youngkin's predecessor.

The grinning Trump image - showing the 45th president posing with both thumbs up and a typed out mock message, "I will call soon - we need to talk about 2024!" - was part of a series of pranks that have become a bipartisan tradition of sorts for outgoing governors in the commonwealth, The Washington Post reported Tuesday.

In addition to the Trump display, former Gov. Ralph Northam (D) pranked his successor - who was sworn in as Virginia's 74th governor on Saturday - with a play on Youngkin's signature cold-weather accessory, leaving a blue fleece vest hanging up in the closet with an embroidered message.

"Top State for Business," the sewn words said, touting a Northam accomplishment.
