2. This is the American version of let them eat cake.

3. “You see the new and improved Oval Office,” Trump said to Carney. “As it becomes more and more beautiful with love — you know we handle it with great love — and 24-karat gold, that always helps too.”
   Yes, love and 24-karat gold leaf has indeed transformed the Oval. Who needs dignified classicism when you can make one of the most famous rooms on the planet look like an overstuffed and inbred cousin of Versailles? Trump has decked out every mantle and surface he can see with gold-plated vases, moldings, and reliefs of a canary yellow that screeches nouveau riche petulance at all who behold it.

   When he leaves this time make sure all that gold stays in the WH!

9. Okay, even removing my bias, how can anyone like the gaudy shit Trump uses to decorate. 

10. When falls and breaks a hip, it ain’t gonna matter.

11. Some deserve more than others is all

12. The Whitehouse is looking as gaudy as the interior of the Kremlin. Trump trying to copy his boyfriend. 🥰

13. its almost as if he and his followers can’t see his own hypocrisy. SHOCKING.

14. It’s known as Moscow West

15. It’s very clear DJT likes “pretty gold shiny things”. History tells the story many times over of kings and leaders who collected extreme wealth and gold laden goodies while those beneath them went hungry. “Let Trump Eat Cake 🍰”. Lessons to be learned from history!

16. When are they going to install the shag carpeting?

17. They can have two dolls instead of thirty dolls. /s
