Just when you thought Trump’s Oval Office couldn’t scream “dictator starter pack” any louder…

He’s now plastered every inch of wall space with even more cheap gold junk—hung with command strips.

Who needs taste when you’ve got tacky authoritarian vibes?

Just one more mess his successor will have to clean up. 🤮
