Trump Tries To Flex The New Look Of The West Wing — And It's Oh So Tacky
Images
President Donald Trump shared a photo Wednesday of what he described as the “newly revamped” West Wing of the White House — and it’s as tacky as you might expect. Maple trees and plantings were also added outside the West Wing, per the president. The gilded signage is in line with Trump’s obsessive use of gold embellishments and decor in the White House, including along his so-called “Presidential Walk of Fame” and inside the Oval Office (he allegedly super-glued some additions onto the fireplace mantle).

Looks like a gambling joint. https://t.co/rYeEC5FZcy Update from the White House on signage. https://t.co/AjO43nG6Rg pic.twitter.com/cVVZ3yPsbt Anyone who is supposed to be there doesn’t need the signage. Anyone who needs the signage shouldn’t be there. Why are the letters not centered vertically? Does NO ONE involved in any of this shit take any pride in doing good work? https://t.co/tKQCMj4X1n Democrats should start taking bids to remove every change he's made at the White House. How’s the East Wing looking? https://t.co/YrQI9igG3X By entering your email and clicking Sign Up, you're agreeing to let us send you customized marketing messages about us and our advertising partners.
