An aide to President Donald Trump this week posted a new look inside the Oval Office ― and critics aren’t thrilled by just how gaudy the place appears, with golden decor on nearly every surface.

White House deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino posted the footage showing off the makeover:

Trump is so obsessed with the Oval Office makeover that he’s done some of it himself, as detailed in the book “Regime Change” by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan.

Trump, they wrote, used superglue to personally attach golden embellishments to the Oval Office fireplace mantel.

“As he was known to prefer his own aesthetic handiwork to anyone else’s, the sight of the president squeezing glue onto gilded appliqués and mounting them on the wall himself surprised no one in his inner circle,” they added.

Trump has had gold and other embellishments added throughout the White House, including just outside the doors.

He also paved over the Rose Garden, transforming it into a “club” similar to his Mar-a-Lago patio.

And last year, he knocked down the East Wing to make room for a massive ballroom, which he has obsessed over publicly.

The latest footage brought out the critics on X ― and they panned the Oval Office’s shiny new look:

Dictator chic. https://t.co/zk3X6qndAU

It’s wild that they’re still bragging about turning the Oval Office into Epstein’s living room https://t.co/KpLIQmOxZJ

Gas prices are up 36%. But at least the Oval Office got its tacky gold makeover. https://t.co/VXQ9gA6vZD

Trashy and vulgar is the perfect representation of the orange depraved slob currently occupying it. https://t.co/DAcnf82mlb

Long live the queen https://t.co/ozea7KicvE

It looks like Liberace and Saddam designed a 19th New Orleans century whorehouse, without the taste and elegance. https://t.co/IM7wAdw6KU

Has the WH morphed into a copy of the Liberace Mansion? https://t.co/uD1M2XfZHt https://t.co/mBVmxSEoxx pic.twitter.com/DRUXA1xXCR

I cannot wait until a new president rips out every fucking god awful gold plated monstrosity and tacky addition Trump has made to the White House. https://t.co/T7jcXoNqMm

Think it needs more gold.  Doesn’t look like there’s enough fake gold.If you could add some more gold. https://t.co/FGvp7jDtgi

Looks like Liberace's office. But gayer, gawdier, and more fake gold plated shit from Home Depot. https://t.co/PfMn3eIlKk

They're using your money to cover the Oval Office in gold while you struggle to afford gas and groceries. https://t.co/4Qz3XP5OqC

Like Liberace and Saddam had a baby. I am referring to Trump. https://t.co/UNLewgHPZo

This makes those $5 gallons of gasoline and those $30 packages of ground meat all worth it, doesn't it? https://t.co/xYtLoJNpS5
