President Donald Trump may be setting himself for a new gig after he leaves office ― as a spokesman for Goya Foods.

The president posted a pic on Instagram Wednesday that showed him at his desk with a variety of Goya products, including cookies, coconut milk and adobo.

Trump’s promo pic came a day after his daughter Ivanka Trump posted a Twitter selfie with a can of black beans, posing as if she were a spokesmodel on “The Price Is Right.”

Both Trump photos came in reaction to a boycott against Goya that began after CEO Robert Unanue said that the country is “truly blessed” to be under Trump’s leadership.

But the pics may violate the Code of Federal Regulations, which states that employees “shall not use or permit the use of his Government position or title or any authority associated with his public office to endorse any product.”

HuffPost reached out to the White House about the possible violation, but it didn’t immediately respond.

White House specialty media director Carolina Hurley earlier sidestepped the ethics violation question by blaming the media and the so-called cancel culture.

“Only the media and the cancel culture movement would criticize Ivanka for showing her personal support for a company that has been unfairly mocked, boycotted and ridiculed for supporting this administration ― one that has consistently fought for and delivered for the Hispanic community,” Hurley told The Hill. “Ivanka is proud of this strong, Hispanic-owned business with deep roots in the U.S. and has every right to express her personal support.”

That women are essentially aesthetically-pleasing objects.

In his 2006 book <em>Trump 101: The Way to Success</em>, Trump wrote: "Beauty and elegance, whether in a woman, a building, or a work of art, is not just superficial or something pretty to see."

That women on The Apprentice need to rely on sex appeal.

That pumping breast milk is "disgusting."

When a lawyer facing Trump in 2011 asked for a break to pump breastmilk for her infant daughter, The Donald reacted very poorly. "He got up, his face got red, he shook his finger at me and he screamed, 'You're disgusting, you're disgusting,' and he ran out of there," attorney <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/29/politics/trump-breast-pump-statement/" target="_blank">Elizabeth Beck told CNN</a>. Trump's attorney does not dispute that his client called Beck "disgusting."

That all women hate prenups, because they are gold diggers.

“The most difficult aspect of the prenuptial agreement is informing your future wife (or husband): I love you very much, but just in case things don’t work out, this is what you will get in the divorce. There are basically three types of women and reactions. One is the good woman who very much loves her future husband, solely for himself, but refuses to sign the agreement on principle. I fully understand this, but the man should take a pass anyway and find someone else. The other is the calculating woman who refuses to sign the prenuptial agreement because she is expecting to take advantage of the poor, unsuspecting sucker she’s got in her grasp. There is also the woman who will openly and quickly sign a prenuptial agreement in order to make a quick hit and take the money given to her.” --<em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Trump-The-Comeback-Donald-J/dp/0812929640" target="_blank">Trump: The Art of the Comeback</a></em>, 1997

That women have a "great act" going on to trick men.

“Women have one of the great acts of all time. The smart ones act very feminine and needy, but inside they are real killers. The person who came up with the expression ‘the weaker sex’ was either very naive or had to be kidding. I have seen women manipulate men with just a twitch of their eye — or perhaps another body part.” -- <em>Trump: The Art of the Comeback</em>, 1997
