It needs more gold.

1. He worships only Mammon.

2. Looks like a shitty funeral home

3. Tacky

It’s tacky and classless.

4. But where's the glowing golden orb for him to fondle?

I've seen (pictures of) c.1899 French brothels that had more tasteful decor.

5. He's cheapened what is a beautiful, elegant, and low-key space.

Guess he's never heard the famous Mies van der Rohe maxim: "Less is more".

6. The Gilded Age, Fake money, fake "gold" , fake President.

7. Next serious president, if we're so lucky as to get one, should resist the urge to remodel, and live elsewhere

This phenomenon requires study. Much as I hate it, there is an aspect of humanity which admires and respects the holders of such opulence and carelessness, and it must be recognized and understood for what it is. Dark Triad leadership of a powerful nation constitutes an existential threat to the entire biosphere. Humanity must learn to spot it from a safe distance if life is to continue. Turn that defiled space into a public museum, a monument to degrading travesties, so people from all walks of life can forever learn the consequences of letting such predators run loose in society, without having to make the same mistakes again themselves.

Or not. We can all just instead. Wouldn't be the first time evolution had to start over from scratch.

8. Interesting take

It does require study. I don't know about living elsewhere, but I like the idea of a future president saying, "Oh God I don't want to live in a bordello."

9. Maybe he will take it with him to Florida

anyway whoever is the next resident of the Whitehouse can have every trace of it removed.

10. When he leaves...

There'll be nothing but holes in the walls

[Xolodno]

11. Every dead Tsar in Russia would probably say....

...dude, dial it back a bit!

[Paladin]

12. I've seen classier decorations in houses of ill repute. (nt)

13. When I See Pics Of The White House Now - With The Gilded Oval; Concrete Rose Garden &......

the drawings of the new Ballroom - the flashback I get is Saddam Hussein's Palace.
