Little speckles of glitter in bronze streaking through the "pure white" paint.
Give it a Roman Palace look.

Of course, given the high number of Spanish-speakers on most landscaping crews, I can't imagine any local landscaping companies dare to take the job if they value their employees' freedom.

actual mob owned restaurant. I was a waiter and we had Burgundy waist coat tuxedos, Ruffled pink shirt and bow tie. The whole place looked like a brothel all in red velvet and gold. The food was great, but the decor was totally over the top.

...next.

We've already seen the plan for the Arc de Turnip. He's probably got plans to rebrand the Supreme Court to the Supine Court; the Washington Monument to the Washington was no Trump Monument; the Lincoln Memorial to the Lincoln was a Looser Memorial; and the World War II Memorial to the Suckers and Losers Plaza--or maybe the This Wouldn't Have Happened if Trump Was President Plaza.

I'm sure plans are already underway to rename St. John's Episcopal Church on Lafayette Square to the St. Donald John Trump Worship Emporium.

Welcome to Walley World....

Send the contractors home. The destroyed remnants of the East Wing need to be preserved just as they are today. Slap trump's name on it and let that horrifying wreckage serve as trump's monument, for hundreds of years to come---no fucking ballroom, no triumphal arch, no nothin'.

Give the evil motherfucker the sort of tribute he deserves.
