WTF is it with this "Resolute Desk" crap?

I guess the Orange-utan is Resolute and sturdy.

Yes I saw the film "National Treasure". But MSNBC and CNN have been saying he's at the Resolute Desk for days now.

I call bullshit.

Respectfully, what are you writing about?

We all hate Trump. Is there something specific about the "Resolute Desk" that I'm missing in your post?

Thanks and cheers.

Not sure why the talking heads keep referring to it -- but it's just another way of saying "in the Oval Office", and everyone knows what that means.

What they need to find a catchy way of saying is "excavating the sand trap at Hole 7".
