"From the balcony of Ned’s private club across from the treasury department, a new favorite hive of Trump officials and the lobbyists clustering around them, one has a bird’s-eyed view of the demolished East Wing. The place appears as if it has been hit by a targeted bomb. Six historic magnolia trees, including some planted by presidents Warren G Harding and Franklin D Roosevelt, and Jacqueline Kennedy’s garden, have been destroyed. The wreckage of the White House grounds is representative of Trump’s presidency. But then he’s already defaced the White House as though it is a mere addition to his collection of clubs as decorated by a more tasteless Liberace."

I'm sure President Rapist will be delighted to be compared to such an alpha male as Liberace.

Republicans would rather self-destruct than save themselves from Trump

As the president’s popularity withers, the party has no will to stage an intervention against him
