ABC News writes that US President Donald Trump is fundamentally transforming the appearance and content of the White House, implementing several sensational changes.
According to the publication, he created the so-called “Presidential Walk of Fame” and installed bronze plaques of his own authorship.
Donald Trump himself most likely authored the inscriptions on the bronze plaques.
These texts are highly personal and political. For example, he officially called Joe Biden the worst president in American history, he claimed that Biden came to power through a “corrupt election” and brought the country to the brink of collapse.
And he accused Barack Obama of spying on him. He described him as a “divisive figure.” Trump accused him of spying on his election campaign and “fabricated scandals related to Russia.”
Trump even gave Hillary Clinton a special mention on the plaques. Although she was not president, Trump mentioned her name on the plaque of her husband, Bill Clinton, emphasizing that Hillary lost to him in 2016.
In addition to the textual changes, Trump has also undertaken a process of reconstruction of the building. He ordered the demolition of the East Wing of the White House to build a luxurious ballroom in its place. The famous Rose Garden was tiled entirely, and numerous gilded decorations were added to the Oval Office.
The White House press service explained that the president is doing all this to emphasize his own historical heritage.
