There will be a lot of filling and painting if anyone else ever gets elected.

The Rose Garden will be more difficult to restore.

of restoring our house back to normal, where it had been and that includes everything they have cheapened. We were not asked if we wanted to pay for this. He has changed the entire meaning and feeling of OUR house without asking if we were OK with it.

This country should never be led by someone that infuriates a good part of the country every day with activities that cost us in so so many ways.

Has anyone else ever done this? I know others decorated and added gardens etc. but I never remember it not being approved or had someone who assumed it was there for their changing. Did he got permission from the R's for some of this but even they have to see how destructive this is to the country.**sorry, I had not been paying too much attention to his gaudy, tacky changes to OUR house.

Seriously, all the paintings, furniture, carpets, drapes, and gifts from billionaires and foreign leaders — they all belong to the United States, and until Trump showed up they never went home with any president or vice president. There’s vaults and such where they get stored until called for, and returned to same.

Trump and his family and all his ilk are thieves in additional to their other evils.

I really was not thinking, was angry again over this tacky, evil, crooked group. (and that is being nice)

Yes, it never entered my mind as I was just curious over that damned gaudy gold shit all over the place and how it makes him feel like the king he thinks he is. It is not that I have forgotten I was just incensed by the thought of what we are going to have to do to get rid of that tacky crap.

Thanks for bringing it up though. We should never forget what he has done. I believe I may need to make a chart. So many things.
