Or perhaps re-made in solid gold.
Gold-paint-sprayed plywood, more likely.
It’s now an assisted living facility with a clientele of one.
Are you talking about what he gets or what the invoice says?
AIUI, it’s out for refurbishing. Curiously, at about the same time an exact copy of the Resolute Desk appeared on display at Mar-a-Lago.
Or, to put it simply, Trump stole it.
How about “The Donald J. trump International Spy Museum”?
Although, implying trump is / was a spy is giving him too much credit. It takes wits and cleverness to be a spy. To whatever extent he’s been an asset to Putin and other enemies of the U.S., it’s more as a dupe or ‘useful idiot’.
This post made my day. I shared it with my wife and teenage kid.
Don’t overthink this one:
BOOGER!!!
Thank you!
A Real Historian weigh in:

Plywood? Look at Mr. Moneybags here! Chipboard at best.
Or that stuff IKEA-knockoff furniture is made from. It appears to be compressed bran flakes, and if you turn a screw 1/500° too much it strips out and the whole thing collapses.
Paywall. Could you summarize?
That’s strange; wasn’t paywalled when Google found the article but now it is. Lemme see what I can do…

What happened: Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), another ex-officio member of the board, tried unsuccessfully to speak out against the move during the virtual meeting at which the vote took place, she told Axios.
- “All of a sudden, when they heard me expressing opposition to it, I was no longer able to speak,” she said. “I was cut off and received a screen that said I could not unmute myself … I had questions, concerns.”
- “Certainly, this was not a unanimous vote.”
- Jeffries and Rep. Rick Larsen (D-Wash.), House Democrats’ third ex-officio member, told Axios they were not present for the meeting.
And here’s a Hill article:
Ohio Dem on Kennedy Center board call says she was muted: Renaming ‘was not unanimous’
Thanks. And…wow. I’d call that Stalinesque, but it’s for such a petty, childish, inane goal, that would be an insult to Stalin.
On the plus side, if you’re trapped for weeks in a Scandinavian blizzard, you can soak it and make porridge.
Lord knows you don’t want to eat their meatballs.
What? I love IKEA meatballs.
