US President Donald Trump has unveiled renovations to the bathroom in the Lincoln Bedroom, as his remodelling of the White House continues.
Trump shared photos of the new bathroom on social media, saying it had been "renovated in the 1940s in an art deco green tile style, which was totally inappropriate for the Lincoln Era".
He claimed the new black and white marble is "very appropriate for the time of Abraham Lincoln and, in fact, could be the marble that was originally there!".

That'd would have been much more persuasive if I had any confidence whatsoever that he knows what planet he's currently on.

Well you see, Ab Lincoln happened a long time ago and everything old is black and white so this marble is old because its black and white. It could even be from the same time! -DT probably
Edit - Ab Lincoln (black and white so you know its old, probably original)

fuck this guy
he doesn't give a shit about anyone let alone his own supporters
He doesn't plan to leave after 2028. He will do everything he can to stay in power. We need to unite to save our democracy

Why would he completely remodel the white house if he was planning to leave in 3 years?

All of that money could have been given directly to rebuilding rural America.

As much as I hate the man touching our landmarks and his horrendous "aesthetics"...
... are we jumping on the green tile bandwagon?!?
That's a rough one to defend; right up there with carpeted bathrooms. Oof.
Edit 1 day later: Just saw a picture of the marble version. The images didn't load when I read the article yesterday. Yikes. Green tile FTW.

Trump's veiny marble and gold fixtures is absolutely worse than green tile.

Aesthetic issues aside, that is objectively really shitty marble to have used. Quality marble looks basically the opposite of that and isnt so intensely veiny. This is like the cheapest marble you could find. It looks like temu marble pattern garbage

Much like everything else he's had decorated.

Might be a hot take, but I truly don't care about the design of the room where the US president shits, and neither should anyone else care (except maybe the US president himself).

This is evidence he doesn’t intend to leave.

Him talking about a 3rd term was already quite enough of a giveaway.
