The second one looks like an English bulldog with jaundice preparing to tell a spooky story around a campfire.

The second one looks like the first one's mugshot
Someone else got it right before me: he doesn't like the standard "stately" pose in the first one. It makes him look too friendly and weak.
He likes the forward hunch and disdainful glare. It's sinister. He likes being perceived that way. Many egomaniacal dictators liked being perceived that way.

Even Hitler in that photo doesn't look nearly as sinister as Trump in his new portrait.
Specifically, it's fairly obviously patterned after Mussolini, who was ALWAYS portrayed this way and is one of Trump's "inspirations".
The first one looks like a young William Shatner dressed up as Trump for Halloween, the second one looks like John Bolton dressed up as Trump for Halloween.

The new one looks like they took Tom Selleck, spray tanned him yellow and and shaved his mustache
