    Ah yes, the look of every dictator’s palace. Loads of gold. Only thing is, most dictators have a form of taste, Trump clearly does not.

        To be fair, they said “a form of” taste. Which I think is a significant distinction.

        Cuz like, the Nazis definitely had a very strong aesthetic. Not exactly “tasteful”. But I can see calling it “a form of taste”.

        Have you seen the costumes of the SS? The German tanks? The epic bunker, mountain mansion and cars of Hitler? Have you seen the palaces of Nicolae Ceaușescu, Putin, Sadam Hussain, Gaddafi, Kim Yong Un? They were/are fucking evil but they did/do have style.

        It looks like Trump wants the same but ordered everything from Aliexpress.

          It’a all a bit tacky, the nazi’s with their roman obsession. Everything is too big, too much. They need to prove something, that feels tacky and cheap. It’s all just a layer of veneer.

          Well that confirms it. People with style are awful people. Which is what I will use to defend myself when I roll into a job interview looking like I slept in a dumpster.

          …which I did.
