FULL TITLE: Trump reveals he WILL return bust of Winston Churchill to the Oval Office after it was ripped out by Obama in 'snub to Britain'

His decision to send the Churchill bust to the US Embassy in London caused outrage in Britain, with Boris Johnson labelling it a 'snub to Britain' and suggesting it was because of Obama's 'ancestral dislike of the British Empire.'

Winston Churchill—one of the greatest men of the 20th century, if not THE greatest.

Obama has always been an ass, and always will be. Why nearly half the nation can’t see it mystifies me.

Would be nice to return some American Civil War statues to their rightful places, too, if we could trust that they would not be vandalized.

Is he going to keep the statue of MLK also? I can just see the news if he removes it.
