(5,193 posts)that would take up much more White House wall space than Trump deserves!
Maybe they could be used as floor covering in some White House bathrooms....

https://thehobbledehoy.com/2019/03/08/british-writer-pens-the-best-description-of-trump-ive-read/
Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers.
And scarily, he doesnt just talk in crude, witless insults he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness.
There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. Its all surface.
...
And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist.
Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that.
Hes not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat.
Hes more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege.
And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things to the British: a bully.
That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a snivelling sidekick instead.
...
If you missed it, or haven't read it in awhile, it is worth reading in its entirety.

(5,193 posts)Lots of other great ideas here, I just went with my most obvious first choices---
and had to drop a few because DU polls limited me to 10 options
(but several choices had to do with cheeseburgers with or without bacon, so.... were superfluous!)
THANKS for the response! I'd read that before, and it is most appropriate!
Unfortunately I didn't recall it at the time of the OP....
Darth Vader might also have been a good selection,
but Darth was better looking...

(13,688 posts)...particularly since Trump and his co-conspirator Vance both need to be impeached and removed in 2027 after the tsunami-sized, shocking number of pro-impeachment wins (Dem, ind, and rep) in the U.S. Senate in 2026.
A gal can dream!
Here's one illustration of the pair.

(25,687 posts)It says quite a lot about the man, in his own writing. Seems tacky and gross perhaps, but as the president observes, enigmas never age. Appropriate IMHO.

(5,545 posts)detailing his crimes. But do not replace his portrait. Never Forget. If you don't realize by now how quickly the US population forget and deny reality, you probably never will. But take it who those understand, the population of the US must have our face rubbed in this at every opportunity in order to Never Forget.

(17,709 posts)Is NOT to put any portrait of that bastard anywhere. Once he's gone, though we should never forget what he's done, we should forget about him and not honor him in any way alongside other people who have served as President.
