Here’s a sobering thought. We recently came across this photo of Donald Trump’s living room at Mar-A-Lago, and we were appalled by the glitzy gold walls and ceiling, gaudy lighting fixtures, and hyper-active decor. Not very inviting. We expected the Florida place to be something of a tropical paradise, but it looks more like a mansion for a turn of the last century new millionaire desperately eager to flaunt his wealth. Hopefully the White House won’t end up looking like this…

Trump had nothing to do with that decor, Marjorie Merriwether Post was the owner of the place, before trump purchased it. She offered it to the US govt. as a winter White House, but the maintenance was too much. Trump swooped in and got the place furnished ,for peanuts. Post was extremely wealthy, and her daughter was the actress Dina Merrill, who at one time was married to Cliff Robinson. Trump’s tacky taste can be seen by googling his New York apartment
