More gaudy gold:

Nothing says â€œman of the peopleâ€ like adding gold trim and a shiny sign outside the Oval Office. Somewhere, Marie Antoinette is whispering, â€œtone it down.â€

Thanks. At least it's a good song. Better than that Hobby Lobby kitsch they're using to deface what's left of The Peoples' House.

Let's hope to hell the gigantic ballroom is somehow stopped. Bad enough we'll have to tear out the beach club patio and plant roses.

On Jean-Bédel Bokassa who declared himself Emperor of the Central African Republic in 1970s.

Below is his 'Imperial Throne'. Btw, when he was eventually deposed one of the criminal charges was cannibalism. Look out, USA.
