A Grandfather Clock, Windmills and Tariffs: Inside Trump’s Rollicking Cabinet Meeting

WASHINGTON—Donald Trump approaches the interior design of the White House much like he does the rest of his presidency: by tapping powers that others left dormant or delegated.
“If I see anything that I like, I’m allowed to take it,” Trump told reporters Tuesday during a meeting in the newly overhauled Cabinet Room in the West Wing.

During Tuesday’s edition, Trump discussed how he personally sifted through the White House archives for paintings he wanted to display in the Cabinet Room—and selected matching frames. He picked out one painting from a private room in the White House so it could be displayed more prominently. And he even grabbed a grandfather clock from the State Department after admiring it on a visit to Foggy Bottom. “Marco, I love this clock,” Trump recalled saying to Secretary of State Marco Rubio during the visit. After initially trying to persuade Rubio to give up the clock, he changed tactics: “I said, ‘Marco, I have the right to do it.’”

He labeled CNN “the enemy” while also taking several questions from CNN’s correspondent in the room (“I like to watch the enemy. You learn from the enemy,” Trump said). He mused about his dislike of windmills (recalling how one friend was upset they were “different shapes, different sizes, different colors”). And then he discussed the merits of a federal takeover of Washington (“We could run D.C. I mean, we’re looking at D.C.,” he said).

Toward the end of the meeting, Trump began polling his cabinet secretaries on whether he should have gold leaf applied to the crown molding in the Cabinet Room.

Better than them governing…[/quote]

Doesn't seem like the AG does much of anything with her day.  This is no different than any other workday for her.  [/quote]

Her job is to sit near Trump and look good. [/quote]
