Trump may not be able to work in the Oval Office for over a year
New York Post ^ | November 17 | Chris Perez

President Obama is apparently refusing to renovate the Oval Office — and has instead decided to pass the buck to Donald Trump, who may be forced to work somewhere else for a quarter of his term now as a result of the numerous security upgrades that will be going on inside the room. “My understanding is that for the first year of his time in office, President Trump will not have the Oval Office,” former George W. Bush adviser Karl Rove told Fox News on Wednesday.

First of many "gifts" from Obama to Trump. What a small & petty "man" BO is. He could have done this already. He is always playing golf or vacationing.

Thread on the “2nd” Oval Office which Obama started work on then abandoned... http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2984432/posts

So O hates his job?
NY Post ^ | April 22, 2011

“”The Oval Office, I always thought I was going to have really cool phones and stuff. . . I’m like, ‘C’mon guys, I’m the president of the United States. Where’s the fancy buttons and stuff and the big screen comes up?’ It doesn’t happen.” — President Obama “

I’m sure President-elect Trump is crying himself to sleep about it.

No Problemo...

President Trump can just implement a very European idea...as a concession to the globalists and progressives.

Members of the European Parliament, their staff and files, regularly move between Brussels, which hosts committee meetings and Strasbourg, where plenary sessions are held on a monthly basis. Meanwhile, Luxembourg houses the Parliament’s administrative offices.

So President Trump could set up office at 1100 Pennsylvania Ave....and perambulate between his various properties in Florida, New York and other choice locations around the USA.

Even better would be to have a mobile office on Air Force One and another mobile office on a Trump Train.

And he will bring in his guys to make sure there are no “oddities”.

The reports keep mentioning how Nixon stayed at Blair House for a long time while refurbishing occurred back then, and how DJT may have to work from there for up to a year or so.

That makes me wonder what renovations or “repair” work has occurred at Blair House over the last two years. Sometimes if they are telling us to look at the right hand (Oval Office), it may be wise to look at the left hand (Blair House?) for suspicious activity. We know they are hardcore marxists. We just don’t know the where and how of it yet.

Personally, I would love for DJT to operate out of his US Post Office hotel down the street!

No telling how long it will take to get the reek of cologne & incense out of the oval office.

Plus there’s a lot of gum they have to scrape
from the under edges of the desk and table tops.

Probably the chair seats as well.

said, "What a small & petty "man" BO is."

Yes, and I was afraid of him siding with ISIS and doing something extremely stupid on his last days.

I guess he just doesn't have it in him.

What is wrong with the room for it to take a year to fix?

I wonder, how long does it take to exorcise the White House?

Government time frame. Trump can do it in 5 days in a pinch, but would prefer 10. (Doesn’t like paying overtime so 2 weeks)
