Donald Trump has been heavily focused on praising his newly renovated bathroom while the US government remains shut down due to a budget and welfare dispute. Many Americans are currently facing financial struggles without paychecks and essential assistance.
Despite the ongoing crisis, Trump’s attention seems to be on extravagant building projects and upgrades in the White House and Washington DC. Recent images showed bulldozers demolishing the East Wing of the White House to make room for a grand ballroom. Additionally, the iconic White House rose garden, established by Jaqueline Kennedy, has been replaced with white marble paving for lavish dinner parties resembling those at his Florida resort.
Trump proudly shared pictures of the remodeled en suite in the Lincoln Bedroom, boasting about replacing the historic turquoise art deco tiling with polished Italian marble. This renovation, he claimed, is in line with the era of Abraham Lincoln, although historical accuracy is questioned given the room’s origins in the 1950s.
The president’s ambitious remodeling plans extend to a proposed triumphal archway near the Lincoln Memorial, already dubbed the “Arc De Trump.” While Trump aims to leave a lasting legacy for future presidents and Americans, his intentions behind these extensive renovations raise speculation about his long-term plans in Washington DC.
