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'
A bust of Winston Churchill is set to be restored to the Oval Office by Donald Trump.
The figurine of Britain's war-winning Prime Minister - who was half American and was the only person to be granted an honorary passport - was taken out by Barack Obama in favour of a similar statue of Martin Luther King.
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.'

It’s sad to think that the Odumbos will have to be back in the White House when their portraits are unveiled, which I’m assuming will be during President Trump’s Administration.

Good for Trump!
It was more than just a ‘snub to Britain’.

After the unveiling of the official WH portriat of berry, Trump should move it to hang in a new location at the WH dumpster enclosure, for the duration.

Great. Get the Churchill bust back. Send the King bust to the National Institute of Plagiarists.

I have long had an interest in Churchill and WWII. Who was your uncle? Radar played a big role in winning the Battle of Britain and, of course, throughout the war.

Lets see Farage carry it back into the office, lol!Hoot! I hope somebody in Trump's entourage still reads FR, for that is one GREAT idea! That bit of political theater would slap the anti-Brexit globalists and their cohorts in the States right across their chops.

MLK statue? I didn’t know there was one in the White House.
MLK was an adulterer who frequented prostitutes - usually white - who he sometimes physically abused. He cheated to get his doctorate. More than 40% of his dissertation was plagiarized.
His statue does not belong in the White House. Maybe Barry would like to take it with him.

Not my uncle Trumps. He always refers to him as “ Uncle John”. Go to wiki for his history - John Trump The source of his middle name.

If Mr. Trump finds a clinton bust in the White House, he should cloak it in the bathroom closet.
To: mass55th
He can send their portraits to the National Portrait Gallery for display.

LOL, I didn't know that. I'd definitely go for that option if I was Trump so I wouldn't get heartburn every time I passed them. He could also relegate them to one or two of the toilets nobody ever uses.

Churchill knew the evil of Islam and called Mohammedanism for what it is. Return of the bust had nothing to do with Obama being upset at England as the title implies.Bingo! It was probably ValJar's decision.
