Donald Trump Wants to Live in a Castle.

[MineralMan]

He wants to wear a crown. He wants a large personal staff that waits on him, hand and foot. He wants to speak and set policy and make laws based on his words.

In the United States, he can't have that, so the White House is a dump and he doesn't get his way.

I suggest that he should resign, since the position he holds is not what he thinks it should be. I'd be good with that.

1. Does he want to live in a... high castle???

[MineralMan]

4. Perhaps, with a dacha somewhere for holidays.

Maybe the Russians actually won the Cold War, after all...

2. Dungeon?

[Joanie Baloney]

3. He already has that

It's called Bedminster. He has already installed a burial plot for 10 family members (and himself, I assume). After he is impeached, he will retire to a life of luxury there and live out his days happily driving doughnuts on his golf greens.

5. But, see, he wants it paid for by the government.

Buckingham would be nice, I think, in Trump's mind. Golden carriages, ceremonial changings of the guard, and all that.

8. And, so it will be

He gets his life-long Presidential pension and SS protection. He can lease the carriages, etc. (And then, not pay the bill.) Buckingham et al are nice, but they are located in that pesky Europe place. :/

12. Yes, remember when he apparently demanded

to ride in the Queen's carriage if he went to England?

6. More like Versailles......let them eat cake.....my mar-a-lago beautiful chocolate cake.

11. I prefer exactly like Versailles

With the same results...

16. Sharpen the guillotine!

7. You are so right about Trumpy.

Many years ago there was a magazine article about Trumpy who was complaining about Forbe's assessment of his wealth and rank on their rich list. He was griping and whining to the interviewer while simultaneously bragging and exaggerating about his success and net worth. At the end of the interview he asks the writer what he was planning to name the article, when he replied that he didn't know yet and asked what would HE have in mind? Trump's answer was "The King".

15. Ugh, he's repugnant!

I don't even know why that should surprise me. He is almost comically over-the-top. It's like he's being ironically obnoxiously grandiose, but he's not. He's serious.

[Orsino]

9. Yep. He wants the unquestioning adulation and limitless concubines a king gets...

...but has no interest in the running of the realm.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

10. So he'd be the asshole in the castle

[spinbaby]

13. He would never live in a castle

A castle is a drafty stone structure without modern conveniences. Trump wants to live in a gold tower with lots of shiny marble and a big-screen TV.

14. Here's a castle for him...

The Kentucky State Penitentiary (KSP), also known as the "castle on the Cumberland," is a maximum security and supermax prison...
