Chris Hayes Reports Trump Glues his Pres. Seal Around the WH [View all]

Chris pointed out his source was The Atlantic article, which states:

The doors, however, remained glaringly unadorned until Trump had an idea: He took his personally designed presidential challenge coin—such tokens are generally a palm-size souvenir that’s popular in military and law-enforcement circles—and glued it to the center of the Oval Office door, at about eye level. “Everyone was impressed by how good it looked,” a White House official told us. In the weeks that followed, Trump made his way through the West Wing, seeking out new places to affix his coins (golden and featuring the presidential seal). One by one, the president decorated the office doors of each of his deputies. His aides are convinced that he will eventually cover all of the doors.

We know he stays up all night posting his maniac rants on social media; now we learn this is what he does during the day.

What kind of time management is this? What kind of priorities?

Link to Atlantic article, which tells more of his superficial interests and how he does nothing presidential. He really thinks the job involves posting on social media and promoting himself using our tax dollars, ruining our historical buildings with his hideous, immature taste.
