Looks classy. Although there are a lot of jokes about making it look like a tacky casino with gold everywhere, the reality is the White House Historical Association has most of the say over all of this and no matter what a President may want (not saying the gold leaf on everything was an actual request), they give them a very limited range of options in keeping with the historical nature of the building.

One would have hoped they reduced the number of FDR and increased the number of TR paintings and statues in the Roosevelt Room, but those may be consistent based on standards.

So the President has an HOA too.   :laugh:

I'm just glad to see the old carpet gone.  I thought the made-up quote by MLK was tacky.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Another waste of taxpayer money.
Nope. With the Obamites going out, I'd strip the walls to the studs and wiring and check that for bugs. Not insects, but the electronic type. I would not put it past them to make sure things keep 'leaking' there if they could.

Security and all that.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Uh, oh. Is this who I think it is?
In that case, definite PROOF that the Trump White House is racis' to the core!
