White House staff were forced to step in to stop President Donald Trump from hanging a potentially damaging chandelier in the Oval Office, according to a new book by CNN’s resident MAGA pundit Scott Jennings.
The problem wasn’t aesthetic. It was physics. White House staff later investigated the request, Jennings writes, discovering that the Oval Office ceiling “couldn’t hold the weight.” CNN reported in March that Trump had “toyed” with the idea of hanging the light fixture. The idea died there—one of the few Trump redesign schemes that didn’t make it into the building.
The kid toucher and chief should be decorating the inside on a 5×9.

This feels a lot like when Kanye destroyed his Malibu mansion designed by Tadao Ando. Except there was no one to stop him.
Btw, remember when Kanye tapped his iPhone pin in and it was like “00000000000000000”?

I think Trump needs to double down on this, obviously the intervening staff are liberal deepstate cucks that are trying to hold Trump back from his potential. In fact, make it twice as big, and just get it up there.

>Trump then asked him directly, “If there’s any room that needs a chandelier, it’s this one. What do you think, Scott?”
>Jennings, in response, offered, “I think it will come in handy at night, Mr. President.” He adds that the room was “awash in sunlight” already but noted privately that “if anyone knows where to put a chandelier, it is this man.”
Perfect display of the sycophancy almost all Republicans display these days.

I had been joking that this was Trumps style for a while now. I just didn’t expect it to be so on the nose:
Motherfucker needs to learn that *it’s not his fucking house — it’s* ***OURS****.*

A gold chandelier is to the Oval Office ceiling as Trump is to the US democracy–an untenable weight.

Trump is the prime example of George Orwell’s book Animal Farm, a pig turned human living in the house, where throughout the story the rules written on the house say pigs won’t do this or that, then every so often the words pigs won’t mysteriously change to pigs will, Trump is one of those pigs.

> Trump also green-lit a tacky “Presidential Hall of Fame” along the colonnade, one that features a picture of an autopen instead of a portrait of Trump’s predecessor, Joe Biden.
Fucking gross

Why do they all just suck up to him everywhere? If anyone knows where to put a chandelier it’s this man? Really? The White House is the most gaudy looking piece of shit I can think of right now. It’s the equivalent of putting shitty spinners on your car.

If these people sucked his dick any harder it would pop right off I swear to God

Renovating the white house is the job Donald has been given to try and distract him from trying to run the country. It is something familiar and comforting for the deteriorating old man to do while his handlers pursue their own goals under his signature.

They should shorten that title to 7 words.

“Many people don’t like Ovals… I suggested making it square… the offices at Mar A Lago are square, much nicer… we’re looking into it… getting rid of the Ovals… it’ll be great, gonna be great… I’m very good at design… lots of people who are interior designers say so… they say… they say ‘Mr President we think you could be an interior designer… have you heard this? Yes we’ll see… I’m building a ballroom you know… beautiful, beautiful ballroom… we needed it, Biden didn’t need a ballroom but you know… we’re better and we’re stopping wars so we’ll see…”
“Next, we put the desk on a platform. We replace all the carpet with marble. We get rid of the desk because I hate paperwork and I just use the autopen anyway. Get rid of the couches, I don’t want anyone sitting down in here except me. We replace the swivel office chair with a big chair made of solid gold. Nobody gets to stand on the platform with me. Only I get to be on the platform. It gets a bit cold in here so I wear this fancy gold-trimmed red velvet blanket over my shoulders. Oh, this? It’s a solid gold MAGA hat. You like it?”

(see the photo) Did anyone else note this guy’s impossibly tiny hands? They just don’t fit his frame.
I downloaded and printed a PDF of his right hand and compared mine to it. His is 1/4 of an inch longer than mine. But I’m 5′ 1″ and female.
