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.

Just look @ what he has done to the fireplace in the Oval Office. The white marble was exquisite
and needed exactly nothing done to it. But President Dumb Truck had people drill into it and hang
tacky ass faux gold crap on it ruining a timeless piece of history. He can have any cut of meat, type
of seafood, fruit or vegetable dish, or baked goods in the world but he likes NY Strip Steaks (tough cut
of meat) well done or KFC or McDonald’s. He doesn’t like Camp David for the love of Dog!

golf club, or any image of him in the horrendous gold tower in NYC.

He's a guy with no taste, no class, no ability to even exercise basic decency. I honestly doubt that anyone who has ever met him has honestly come away with a positive impression, but he does draw sycophants, like shit draws flies.

I often said before he even ran for president that he was what a focus group would come up with if they were asked to create the big villain for a movie. Then, I said it would be rejected as too over the top evil. He's always been a terrible creature.

He has walkways from the outside that go to the inside and they are made of wood, concrete pavers,
fired brick or tiles, beach stuff …. sand, shells, rounded wash gravel, and flattened rocks. Pick one
or two products one for an outside walkway and something else for the inside. And for some of the
plantings they were just clueless. Here is a hint, shorter plants in front and taller plants in the back.

The man is devoid of any clue as to what looks nice. Btw when I did look at some of the plantings around
his restaurant he had all kinds of different planters. Just pick out one kind of material such as clay terra
cotta.
