I hope he has all the mattresses changed.
I say this only partly in jest. Donald Trump is such a spiteful, childish, *nasty* person (and I use that term loosely) that it wouldn't surprise me at all if he arranged some disgusting, secret "welcome" for the Bidens. Because of Covid, I assume the WH will be cleaned like it's never been cleaned before; I just hope the mattresses are included.
Me.

(12,582 posts)I would much prefer if he didn't move into the White House for a week or two. He also needs to get rid of any staff with loyalties to Trump. It's not safe.

Of course, it must be ventilated and caution must be taken to not breathe it in. When treating homes, one or more units are required and everything you want alive must be removed and plans to reopen to vent must be made ahead of time.
Car dealers use it to neutralize car odors, running them an hour, and it takes care of smoke odor too.

(478 posts)Yes we can fumigate, kill all the germs and make it safe enough for humans again, but the very soul of the WH has been defiled and sullied beyond retrieval. It will never be the same.

Let's include Native American medicine people (shamans?) Everyone can be part of the moving-in ceremony.
I think it would be fun to have an Acme movers van pull up to the front of the WH. Along with a Four Seasons truck. Let's milk it.
it would be worth a try if we could find a shaman willing to go inside.
We have a new Native American Interior person. She probably wouldn't mind being blessed by a Shaman!
