President Donald Trump positively needs to depart his mark on our nation’s capital. Too unhealthy that mark is nothing however a gross, gilded stain. Trump’s aesthetics are as terrible as his politics—a hole and ugly horror.
Whereas the White Home has borne the brunt of his gold-plated assault, Trump has huge plans for the remainder of Washington. There’s a complete metropolis on the market for him to wreck, and there are some golf programs he would love to get his mitts on. The person’s acquired huge developer desires, they usually don’t definitely simply cease on the White Home.
Whereas we not have an East Wing of the White Home so Trump can construct his ballroom, nobody formally is aware of precisely what that monstrosity will seem like as a result of he hasn’t submitted any official plans and simply broke up with his architect. Nonetheless, all indicators level to it being Mar-a-Lago-style rubbish.
There’s additionally the gilded Oval Workplace decor, which is oozing tacky gold-plated plaster in all places. And, in fact, there’s the Lincoln rest room, which he turned into a marble and gold nightmare.
However Trump’s gilded desires can’t be contained to only one constructing, so why not attempt to spoil Washington’s public golf programs too?
Again in 2020, the Nationwide Hyperlinks Belief was awarded a 50-year lease to handle Washington’s three public programs. However on Oct. 29, the Trump administration issued a notice that NLT is in default. No, it doesn’t say why it’s in default or repair it—a traditional Trump transfer.
NLT will get 45 days to repair that default—the one which hasn’t been defined—which is quickly coming to an finish. If NLT doesn’t someway repair the imaginary default, it should lose operational management of the three programs this week, and voila, they’re all Trump’s.
The timing of the discover helps clarify the bizarre Oct. 31 Washington Post report {that a} bunch of dust from the East Wing demolition was dumped on the East Potomac Golf Course. Consider it as Trump marking his territory. Oh, and nobody is aware of if it’s chock-full of asbestos or not.
Let’s face it: the golf programs will probably be a part of the Kennedy Center as one other piece of Washington that’s been wrecked by Trump.
And we’re additionally going to get a cheesy Arc de Triomphe knockoff, which Trump says is the principle precedence for his home coverage chief. Certain, Trump is telling people that their children can’t have dolls or pencils due to skyrocketing inflation because of Trump’s tariffs, however that arch should get constructed.
Actually can’t wait to seek out out which non-public protection contractors, huge tech, and media companies will rush to “donate” to Trump’s newest hideous transform. You already know, for freedom.
