This is clearly not the most radical change that the United States has experienced since Monday and the return of Donald Trump to the White House, but the most observant will have noted: there is change in the Oval Office. Because yes, as is customary, each new president of the United States brings his own personal touches to this legendary piece. And the Republican was not embarrassed.
The Wall Street Journalwho had exclusive access to the Holy of Holies, tells us that several portraits of former presidents arrived with the MAGA leader: George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson. But also Alexander Hamilton, former Secretary of State for the Treasury.
Family, Bronco and cream carpet
More personal photos also appeared just behind the desk (visible in the photo at the top of this article), tells us New York Post. We can see his wife Melania, his mother Mary Anne, his father Fred and what appears to be his son Barron. Not far away is a “collection” of badges and medals which resembles what Donald Trump had already stored during his first term.
Another object to make a return, the “Bronco Buster” sculpture, accompanied by representations of eagles.
Ditto for a bust of Winston Churchill, while that of Martin Luther King Jr. survived the transfer of power with Joe Biden. Moreover, speaking of Biden, the golden curtains of Trump’s first term were preserved by the Democrat, and vice versa with the return of the Republican. On the other hand, the blue carpet which was in the center of the room for the last four years has given way to a cream covering (much more messy), notes BFMTV.
-The great return of the “button” to Coca
We of course saved the best for last with the $10,000 question: is the Coke “button” back? Yes ! Donald Trump had it installed in 2017, Joe Biden then removed it in 2021, and now Donald Trump is back at it.
The latest news on Donald Trump
As a reminder, this famous Diet Coke “dispenser” is in reality a discreet button on which the President of the United States can press to signal to the butlers of the White House that he really wants, right now, to ‘a Diet Coke.
