I am having difficulty getting past the notion of Donald Trump deploying the bulldozers and backhoes to knock down the East Wing of the White House.

This heartless bastard doesn’t give a rat’s ruby red rear end about history or how the building where he will live for the next three years holds so much of our nation’s rich history. Dude wants to build a gold-adorned ballroom. Never f***ing mind that the East Wing is part of the people’s house, that’s my house, your house. The guy who has moved in there on a temporary basis has taken it upon himself to knock a good part of it down.

It is an outrageous violation of what we normally think of as decent, graceful and normal.

Presidents of the United States just don’t have carte blanche to destroy valuable pieces of public property. However, Trump doesn’t give a crap on what is normal.

It’s going to take me a while to get past this disgraceful act of arrogance.
