Trump Oval Office vs Obama Oval Office – See Pics Here
DC Whispers ^ | 8-25-17

After three weeks of renovations, the Trump Oval Office is complete and the last remnants of the Obama era have been removed. Gone are the striped wall paper and suede couches, replaced by more neutral solid walls and off-white jacquard couches.

Perhaps most notable are the addition of U.S. military flags that now surround the presidential desk. During the Obama years there were only two flags in the office of the Commander in Chief – none of them military. POTUS Trump has brought in several more stars and stripes than his predecessor, as well as flags representing each branch of the military.

Mr. Trump also had the Obama rug removed and in its place is the same rug used by President Ronald Reagan. The only thing the same is the Resolute Desk, first used by President John F. Kennedy and several presidents to follow.(Which Mr. Obama would sometimes put his feet on.)

  Here is the Obama Oval Office: (Which many noted was perhaps the most “feminine” of Oval Offices and which Mr. Obama actually rarely used – except for prepared photo shoots. He favored a second-floor private study that was just down the hall from Valerie Jarrett’s office(s) )

I’m sure the decor was hideous. But I was referring to how filthy and torn up the residence must have been when Trump first walk in. The staff probably have cleaned it as well as they could. But after eight years of “tenants” like the Ozero family, I’m betting that it still has a funky smell and a lot of damage.

My understanding was that the Obamas decorated the private quarters in African themes. I don’t remember seeing any pictures, but I do remember reading descriptions by their designer.


That would be severed heads on spears and African lip plates?
