The most absurd part of the story is that there is already a bust of Churchill in the White House and the one given to Bush was never supposed to be a permanent fixture. Obama didn’t remove it. He just returned it to its rightful owner.

The bust in question, by British sculptor Jacob Epstein, was given to President George W Bush by the British government in 2001 and was placed in the Oval Office. But the statue was not donated, it was simply on loan for Bush’s term in office (a loan which the British government decided to extend when Bush was re-elected in 2004). Churchill disappeared from the White House in 2009, when the loan ended at the same time that Obama moved in.


Then Drumpf request the Churchill bust again from the British.

4. You mean trumpsky didn't replace it with a RustOleum-painted

statue of himself? I understand he's also got several paintings of himself that his "charity" was kind enough to buy for him.

If he's lacking wallpaper, the Russian government will probably lend him several blow-ups of some frames from the movies they have.

Wait until the big gold letters start being installed over the portico.

8. Oh, that shit is coming

People have blissfully dismissed me when I said the only question is what he renames first - Trump Force One or the Trump House ...

7. He's just thanking his supporters in the way he knows best

I am sure there will be more racist crap coming down the pike. It's going to be long 4 years, even if he is impeached and Pence gets installed.
