Shortly after becoming President again, Donald Trump complained about the quality of federal buildings and ordered that all new buildings have a “timeless design”.
“Have you been to the National mall?,” Trump said, speaking at a press conference. “I have. Lots of classic architecture. Beautiful. Except for one. It looks like someone plopped a Noah’s Ark replica on the mall,” Trump complained. “Very sad. “
While Trump did not name the building in question, several reporters thought he was referring to the National Museum of African American History and Culture. However, others were adamant that it was not the same building.
“It doesn’t look like Noah’s Ark,” reporter Sky Walker, insisted. “It looks like the Jawa sandcrawler from Star Wars.
When asked what he considers timeless architecture, Trump happened to have an opinion.
“Arches are nice,” Trump said. “You can see them a long way off and they just kinda draw people in. Oh, and a tall flagpole with a big American flag. Maybe a sign saying how many people had been served by the agency, ’cause this is about the people. Beautiful people. Most of which voted for me. And plenty of free parking. And a drive thru.”
When it was suggested that Trump was describing a McDonalds, his architecture advisor came to his defense.
“The buildings don’t have to be red and yellow,” the advisor said.
The advisor was dressed oddly, had curly red hair and wore a red rubber nose. While he resembled someone familiar, no reporter could put their finger on who.
At that point the press conference ended abruptly when a large man dressed like a medieval English lord and wearing a crown attacked Trump’s architecture advisor, yelling, “You’re not gonna have it your way this time, clown!.”
