This turd has the most infantile notion of wealth right out of fairy tales. Everything's plated in gold-colored metal. If it's not ostentatious and gaudy, it's not good enough.

Is he actually planning on holding balls (if so it would be the only balls in this White House)? What's next? Is he going to put in a stable and a carriage house so he could be ridden around the WH grounds like the ride he had with Charlie King and Camilla a few weeks ago?

We're dealing with a complete child.
