Ricardo Montalbn lives. Trump's "work" on the White House will have rich Corinthian Leather.

Does Trump know what a fucking joke he is?



The new columns will be Corinthian. D. Trump.

Doric, Ionic and Corinthian were various decorative treatments of columns over time in ancient Greece. I tend to
favor the Doric order for its simplicity. Of course Trump favors the Corinthian style because it's overdone and flashy
like the gold goo-gaws he's plastered all over the oval office.

will end up being him tearing down the rest of the White House, because "well, when they did the columns, they found rot, so they HAD to tear down the whole thing...he's literally bent on destroying EVERYTHING.
