Do a search on "Putin's palace," and check out the photos of the interior. It's the same exact shit. Tacky gold shit everywhere, although I suspect that Putin's is actual gold leaf, rather than spray paint.

I wonder how it will cost to restore the White House after the vandal is gone?

... above the fireplace that.has been around for generations to hang that tacky gold (fake ?) trash.

From somebody who has done a little design work that was a sin. The stone itself was just fine as is. The man is classless.

He doesn't care if he destroys something that actually has intrinsic and historical value.

He is devoid of so many important qualities - awareness and respect would have helped in this situation.

I am sure skilled craftspeople can repair the damage so you will not notice the holes but
that should be so unnecessary just like tearing down that stupid ass ballroom and bringing
back Jackie’s Rose Garden. National treasures and he is fucking them up either out of
stupidity or spite.

Someone must have told him gold makes you look rich.

The rich people I admire the most are the ones that still drive regular cars, live in nice but not mansion homes, they still shop for groceries and eat at cafes. Dress in normal clothing. Treat their employees fairly and give to charities.

I saw a picture once of Chancellor Merkel at a open market in Germany buying produce and she brings her own bags.
