...Trump wouldn’t be the first modern president to use the Oval Office as a staging ground to help tell a story about his presidency. Obama placed a bust of Martin Luther King, Jr. in his office, replacing a bust of Sir Winston Churchill that was moved to the Treaty Room in the White House’s private residence.

That’s expected to change Jan. 20. After visiting with Trump earlier this month, British politician Nigel Farage, leader of the country’s anti-immigrant Independence Party, tweeted that he was “especially pleased at @realDonaldTrump's very positive reaction to idea that Sir Winston Churchill's bust should be put back in Oval Office.” ...

President-elect Donald Trump is planning to make some artistic changes to the Oval Office that reflect his fascination with his own unexpected victory.

Trump has told friends he plans to hang in the Oval Office a personal letter written to him in 1987 by President Richard Nixon that predicted his eventual win.

The letter was sent to the developer after first lady Pat Nixon saw Trump interviewed on television and thought to herself, a political star is born.

Wow.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Kind of makes you wish he wasn't rejected from art school.

Yes, it is always about Trump.  Trump talking about himself as the third person.  I imagine that the White House will be filled with articles about Trump.  Trumps face all over the place framed in gold.

Nixon letter is just one of Trumps self worshipping collection.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Needs the props, as he's such a small person.

Pat Nixon also was hooked on booze and tranquilizers. Who knows what condition she was in when she watched him on Phil.

huh.  I hadn't thought to try that. 
I wonder whether I could get a 4-year prescription.
