Besides, there isn't too much gold-plating in the White House.

(7,715 posts)By Trump and his gang. Joe and Kamala need to investigate the hell out of the Trump administration to show to all Americans (normal and RWNJs) the level of corruption and treason that's been committed since 2016.
Without documents, which I am sure are being destroyed even as I write this, it's going to be a bit hard, but the thing is that these people are basically dummies. In the hands of someone like Preet Bharara, they will be toast, particularly where the US AG and the US attorneys have the ability to nail people for perjury and contempt for refusing to testify. That has been lacking these last 4 years, and I so very much hope Joe starts numerous investigations of these monsters so that they FINALLY have their day of reckoning.
This can happen regardless of whether we win the Senate.

Now's their chance to monetize our secrets.
They're gonna need the money. When the SDNY, NY state prosecutors, the IRS, Deutsche Bank, and the Russian oligarchs are done with him, he's gonna be living in a non-running Winnebago parked on a side-street somewhere in New Jersey.

(100,133 posts)Im sure every fork and saltcellar in the house is accounted for as well, as much of the tableware is historic and antique.
If the grifter and his family want to just help themselves, there are people who will know exactly what they took.
Now, how we get it back will be a different matter.

The White House is, for all intents and purposes, a Museum with a curator and all the attendant personnel.
They know every item down to the ink pen.
