First, the speeches, then Obama's inauguration photos, now he has to steal the cake?


Hates Obama so much, but steals everything from them....

Donald Trump's inauguration cake might have been a work of plagiarism.

Duff Goldman, a celebrity pastry chef from Detroit, posted a photo to Twitter Friday evening portraying two nearly identical cakes: one from Barack Obama's 2013 inauguration and one from President Trump's Friday inauguration.

"The cake on the left is the one I made for President Obama's inauguration 4 years ago. The one on the right is Trumps. I didn't make it," Goldman captioned the photo, followed by an emoji displaying confusion.

I'll be much relieved.
(Too much to hope he'd steal the class and dignity Pres. Obama & Michelle bestowed on the Office - so I'll be happy with ideas and policies)

it is about how a creative mind works.

another example of how the shortchanging of our educational system has brought us here. clear evidence of what happens when you cut the arts out of the curriculum.
