It features Amy and Gio, who are visiting the capital from Topeka, Kansas, talking about the 80-year-old president\u2019s gilded do-over of the Arts of War and Arts of Peace statues during a rickshaw tour near the Lincoln Memorial.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cI was walking on the back side of the memorial, and I was just like, woah, what is that?!\u201d Amy says in the clip. \u201cI didn\u2019t see them before, but they look very bright,\u201d she added, without clarifying whether that\u2019s actually a good thing. Amy, for her part, seemed to think it is, saying they \u201clook really nice\u201d and that they\u2019re \u201csuper shiny\u201d and \u201cbeautiful.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Turns out those comments are quite literally the only nice thing anyone had to say in the original video, uploaded by local station WTOP News a day earlier. \u201cI thought they looked great before,\u201d Steven Davies, a D.C. resident, said of the do-over, calling it \u201ca little over-the-top for my taste.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Karen, from Maryland, went harder. \u201cTacky,\u201d she said. \u201cLooks like Home Depot gold spray paint.\u201d Francis, also from Maryland, was of much the same mind. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t remember them being this shiny, this gaudy,\u201d he told the outlet. \u201cI think there\u2019s a better use for the funds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Beast contacted the White House to ask why it omitted these less-than-favorable reviews from what it chose to post on X. It responded by simply resharing the shorter clip it had already posted. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=4669\">How Trump Is Hiding an Insane $150B Scandal\u2014Inspired by 50s TV<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not entirely out of character for the second MAGA administration. Trump himself often wanders around with aide Natalie Harp, 34, whom officials have privately nicknamed the \u201chuman printer\u201d for her habit of printing out glowing online articles and comments for presidential pick-me-ups in the midst of all the backlash his second stint in office has caused.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, who sued CBS in late 2024 for what he claimed was a deceptively edited interview with Kamala Harris, has been famously outraged by selective coverage when other people do it.<\/p>\n<p>The president\u2019s gold-plated revamp of the statues, unveiled Thursday, blew past both its projected budget and its deadline. Trump had promised the 24-karat makeover would cost just $2.5 million and be ready in time for America\u2019s 250th birthday. A no-bid contract saw it come in at double that price, almost a month after the Fourth of July.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s only the latest in a string of disasters trailing his efforts to remake the nation\u2019s capital in his own image. Trump has demolished the White House East Wing to make way for what designs promise will be an achingly tasteless new ballroom. He pledged last year that project would cost just $200 million, with the bill footed entirely by private donors. The price tag has since ballooned to $600 million, with at least half of it footed by taxpayers.<\/p>\n<p>Then there\u2019s the gilded, 250-foot \u201ctriumphal arch\u201d slated to overshadow Arlington National Cemetery, along with his $22 billion renovations at Washington Dulles International Airport, and his bid to transform the municipal golf links at East Potomac Park into a championship-grade course. His $14 million \u201cAmerican flag blue\u201d refurb of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool has for months succeeded only in turning its waters a sickening shade of green.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Trump\u2019s lust for gold in particular, rivaling even that of a certain villain from the <i>Austin Powers<\/i> movie franchise, has meanwhile reached the very seat of power amid reports the president has taken to tacking gold additions onto Oval Office furnishings\u2014with the help of a little superglue. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=4667\">Missing McConnell Cornered on Using Autopen From Hospital<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump\u2019s press team posted a glowing video review of his latest D.C. revamp that conveniently left out all the other comments slamming it as a tacky waste of money.
