What exactly did Bill Clinton do to the White House while he served as POTUS?

He trashed the place?

Is this a reference to the Monica Lewinsky affair? He tainted the atmosphere with his reckless, sexual adventure with a twenty-something intern?

We have a demented fascist sitting in the White House, a man and movement that threatens the entire country and world, a man who is an adjudicated rapist.

Bill Clinton's indiscretions pale in comparison.

So, no, David Broder's comment doesn't come to mind anew. It just sets my hair on fire!

As for Trump's designing? He's into a trashy Versailles' vibe akin to Saddam Hussein's penchant for all things gold.

Dictators love this stuff.

As for the Rose Garden? It's been beloved longer than Broder's quote; it must, therefore, be obliterated, buried under a slab of concrete.

Dictators love this stuff.
