Gold chairs and tables, gold toilets.... As over the top as possible so you don't notice there are no documents or books in his library...

As I've said before, I would love the irony in where Hillary Clinton ends up with an official White House portrait and Donald Trump doesn't.

All you need is a shack painted gold, a tv to show reruns of Celebrity Apprentice, and a print out of his tweets.
Low overhead, and every fucking idiot in America will travel to see it!

The souveneir stand will just be red baseball caps that say "duuh"

Ex presidents have access to various records and documents. The library itself will be privately funded, located where Trump chooses, closed to Muslims, etc.

with a television on the cooking channel where they never mention his name.

It could be the daily tv listings scrolling endlessly by on the screen, but I'm being merciful.

I envision a giant bathroom magazine rack as his final monument. Large, gold-embossed editions of Maxim, GQ, and the Sports Illustrated swimsuit spectacular... the finest periodicals embraced and defended as relevant by the alt+right. Bless their little hearts.

Presidents aren't allowed to keep all the swag they get as president. Thus, in modern times all this crap ends up stored in their library. I'll be damn if I'm letting Don the Con sneak out of the white house with all his loot. Lock it up in a library no one will ever go to.

president office holder. It would be a great way to study and write a book about how crazy trump actually was so that in future we don't elect someone like him again.

Not sure if Twitter is allowed in prison, so we might be spared on that count when he's locked up...
