I get it, he wants to make it feel like home if he's gonna be living there for the rest of his life.
He won't be stepping down from this gig, he knows the consequences he'll have to face if he becomes a normal citizen again.
I get it, he wants to make it feel like home if he’s gonna be living there for the rest of his life.
Much of the White House was decorated by Jackie Kennedy, and her husband ended up spending the rest of his life there, so maybe this will be the same thing...
I like the cut of your jib

Holy shit is that tacky.
Can you imagine the president having nothing better to do than golf, take pictures of the bathroom, and fuck children?
Ugh. I don't love the green, but that after picture is hideous.
No imagination needed.
Try to tell me this fuck isn't intending on staying past 2028. :/
He's been selling Trump 2028 merch for a while now. His new campaign slogan is "Rewrite the rules."
His old strategist Bannon said to The Economist just last week that Trump will serve a third term, and that their criteria for success is MAGA in control of every American institution, forever
No, not hyperbole, damn near exact quote
It’s his forever home
lets hope so, but not for the reasons he would like to.
It isn't your fucking house asshole.
Hey that's right. It's our (taxpayer's) house. We should evict him.
Yes it is. No one is stopping him from anything. He could nuke the entire planet and he’d rule over rubble.
...how many bugs -and I don't mean the crawly critters- do you think are making it into the whitehouse through all these renovations?
In the fantasy world of a functional US government following the Trump regime, how do you even handle this? Everything he touches is a gigantic liability.
I think at this point I'd have the WH converted into a museum highlighting shit like the dangers of misinformation, and just pick up ops from one of the military bases that we're sure Trump never set foot in.
During Nixon's renovations he embedded so many bugs and wires in the walls it interfered with the structural integrity of the plaster.
So there's precedent for counter-surveillance scrubdowns.
But, that only happens if the WH is taken back from the dictator inside it.

Holy shit how fucked are are that this is even news. I hate this so much.

I hate when a stupid motherfucker is right because, outside the gold, the marble looks way fuckin better than that green.
-
To claim that marble and gold is somehow more era appropriate for Lincoln is pretty standard Trump-alternate-reality delusion fueled by narcissism.
I think the marble looks weird as fuck and would make the bathroom uncomfortable to be in, while the green tile is very pleasing and cozy, with nice accents
Gold is tacky as fuck and that dude wouldn't know good taste even if it was sold at the bottom of a ketchup bottle.

For a heterosexual man he sure seems preoccupied with interior design and his makeup.
He is also as terrible at both as the stereotypical heterosexual man.

SNAP ends Tomorrow! I LOVE TRUMP!
-Poor Republicans!
Federal judges are forcing them to fund snap :)
GOOD thing Republicans LISTEN to Judges!
Guess he's really not planning to leave if he's doing this much redecorating.
Kings did this intentionally to prove their wealth and power while the masses begged for food. It helped them illustrate that there was a pecking order.
What a disgrace. He's tearing up history and smearing his gold flake feces all over the place.
He should be careful. A doddery old stroke victim with Alzheimer's could slip on all that polished marvel.
Lincoln's ghost will push a bitch.
This administration does not have their priorities straight. Not paying employees, firing thousands of people, this obsession with gold. The end of USAID, so much more, it's just so disheartening.
When he's done with all the renovations the white house is gonna be Epsteins Pedo Party Palace.
I hope he slips in there those rock edges look unforgiving enough to do the job
He's not getting the damage deposit back
It's hideous.
My big takeaway from these pictures is that one can take a shit by an unfrosted floor-to-ceiling window to the outside

The after pictures is like a Minecraft house where they just used the same blocks for everything and a gold fixtures mod.
That’s cool, all of these temporary modifications to waste tax payers money with. His style is so awful, that any new president is going to change what he changed so they don’t barf everyday. I love seeing my tax dollars get wasted while we are all out here barely surviving. Our government has failed us ladies and gentlemen.
Even if it wasn't hideous, I wouldn't fault the next occupant with re-doing the whole thing on general principal.
But it is, in fact, hideous and tacky, as one would expect.

This is how you make America great!!!!!!!!!!! Just non-stop winning! Fuck the kids and all humans in the borders. Food and healthcare are boring. A renovated bathroom, that’s amazing!!!
He is certainly following Nero's footsteps.
A monumental rotating dining room certainly isn't beyond him. There's another wing to destroy after all.
and every surprise is guaranteed to be more surprising than the last!
Trump has no taste. If it is the most expensive then it is the most appropriate, but only if it's gold and white.
