As part of his nine-figure plan to renovate the White House, President Trump has controversially decided to gold-plate certain elements of his royal palace.
For those who are unaware, the Republican team first declared last week (31 July) that a whopping $200 million (£150 million) would be invested in the construction of a new ballroom.

One section of the announcement wrote: “The White House is one of the most beautiful and historic buildings in the world, yet the White House is currently unable to host major functions honouring world leaders and other countries without having to install a large and unsightly tent approximately 100 yards away from the main building entrance.”

According to CNN, the latest additions came only weeks after the 79-year-old began adding ‘gold piece after gold piece’ to areas of the property, ‘including tiny gold cherubs over the entryway’ of the Oval Office.

“A lot of the finishes that he wants closely resemble his private clubs,” journalist Kevin Liptak previously explained of the gold in an Instagram video. “And some of the details have actually been imported from Mar-a-Lago.”
