When he’s out of office this tacky shit can be torn out easily. It’s so fitting. Everything he says is a lie. Everything he does is a con.

Unlike the classified documents he took with him last time, nobody is going to care if he takes this stuff with him.

And it’s a fine one.

Just like its designer.

Did someone with ties to Trump (or maybe himself?) charge the government $500 in material costs for this dreck, then pocket the difference?

The trump whores in the mainstream media probably won't report it, but it happened.

A piece in The Wall Street Journal published on April 16 revealed that the politician, 78, enlisted cabinetmaker John Icart, who has worked on projects at Mar-a-Lago, to add gold finishes throughout the White House.

and split the windfall with his tacky accents guy.

AUDIT THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH!

if it were real gold... would be tacky nonetheless

And of course Trump got his cut of the profits.

most likely/probable, the had the contractor grossly inflate the price, and then "stiffed" the contractors for the bill, like he has done his entire life with work on his properties..........

Steal everything in sight while screwing everyone in sight.

Seriously...They had a lot of cute stuff. Their stuff was painted with real paint, not prints. No two paintings were exactly alike.
Their frames were gold.

Those days are long gone. Big Lots ended up going with giant photos and prints like the other big box stores. DG also discontinued their paintings and went with plaques and prints.

It was pretty good stuff for a few bucks!!

Trump has all the taste of a cracked gold plated toilet that has not been cleaned in a year.

BARGAIN BAROQUE

Some of the gold decorations in the Oval Office look... very similar to items we found for sale on a Chinese marketplace.

Since President Donald Trump moved back into the White House in January, it has undergone some major decorative changes. The Swedish ivy that perched upon the mantle has been replaced with golden vases from the White House collection. And the room, overall, has just gotten noticeably more shiny and gold.

Looking at photos taken in the Oval Office this week with El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, we noticed several decorative medallions applied to the marble fireplace, and the same ones stuck on the wall under portraits in gilded frames.

A quick photo search on Alibaba showed many such “decorative appliqués” available in white and gold. We came across one item that looks very much like the ones all over the Oval Office.

This “High-density Home Decoration Polyurethane Appliques Ornament PU Foam Veneer Accessories” from Guangzhou Homemax Decorative Material Limited on Alibaba is a dead ringer. The decorations are available in many colors: “matte white most, or gold, silver, antique gold or bronze, mixed color, customized color.”

The price? Between $1 and $5 apiece (but the minimum order is 50 items). And that isn’t accounting for the steep 145% tariffs that Trump recently slapped on Chinese imports

on the White House, it would decrease with every stuck-on plastic ornament.

While boasting his renovations earlier this year, Trump said the room “becomes more and more beautiful with love, with great love and 24-carat gold that always helps too.”

Otherwise Dump will order replacements in real gold and fucking charge us taxpayers for it. He can wallow in his cheap gaudy trash until the next admin comes in.

it's cheap. he's spending our Treasury as if it grows on trees and is endless.

There’s a HUGE cost difference between the two.

That’s an upgrade, I thought it was from the Dollar Tree.

Never been more applicable: cheap and tacky.

At least he isn't raiding Fort Knox and using real gold bullion for his gilded palace despot decor.

Look like a brothel......
