A FAMILIAR presidential face is hiding among a break in the clouds just waiting to be spotted.
Let’s see if you can find the political profile in this optical illusion.
Have you ever come across a face in a cloud in the sky, a tree in a forest, or even in the food on your plate?
This false perception of seeing non-existent faces or patterns in everyday objects is known as pareidolia.
But don’t worry, you are one of many who’s experienced this phenomenon.
At one time, pareidolia was even seen as a survival tactic and served as protection from potential predators, according to The Weather Network.
Now, we’re here to test how well you know your presidents and whether or not you have 20/20 vision.
Can you spot the president’s face in the middle of the photo?
Here’s a hint: he’s a politician frequently in the news.
Remember, you can’t take too long though — there are only 10 seconds.
Do you see the outline of a profile?

TRUMP ON TRIAL
The familiar face is former president Donald Trump.

The former president has been indicted four times and faces a slew of charges, juggling court dates and rallies on the campaign trail.
