The Guggenheim’s Not So Subtle Insult To The White House

 

It’s common practice among the major art museums of the country to offer parts of their holdings to the residents of the White House to display on a “long-term loan” basis. The White House Office Curator, Donna Hayashi Smith, put in a request to the Guggenheim Museum in New York for a Van Gogh, but was told the painting was unavailable.

The Guggenheim’s curator instead offered the White House a working golden toilet titled “America.”  More

  1. Trump should personally step in and ask for the toilet to be sent to the White House (especially if any NEA grant money was used). They should then sit that sucker in the bathroom used by the WH press corps and put a MAGA sign right about it.

  2. Things you can do when you know the POTUS will not weaponize the IRS or the FBI.

    Still there has been talk on our side about de-funding the NEA. I’d like to see that happen now more than ever.

  3. Oh, so the curator is a “her” . I was betting the curator was a light in his loafers “him”.
    She is a small minded immature low class person. She has transformed the museum into an image of herself. Imagining herself to be a clever goddess.

  4. Well, I hope the Guggenheim receives no federal grant money nor any special tax provisioning either in reporting their invcome or with donors contributions becoming tax deductions. If the Guggenheim wants become a political commentator and pundit then let them but not at the federal trough.

  5. Her life is about to take a sudden Kathy Griffin turn.

    These people need to be taught.
    There is no longer any future for the Left in America.
    She looks…expendable.

  6. God I hate progressives. The golden toilet is called “America”, and is somehow a slam against American wealth, or something. There wouldn’t even be a Guggenheim Museum if it weren’t for a rich American, Solomon R. Guggenheim. Apparently the irony is lost on the feeble-minded curator.

  7. First, Mount it in a Honey bucket at one of Trump’s construction sites. Title it: “The Guggenheim”. Wait a few months. Then return the whole display and tell the museum “Everyone loved it …after lunch”.

  8. Whenever any fixture is permanently attached to a dwelling, by bolts, nails, screws, etc., it becomes legally part of that building. For example, if a tenant were to install, at their own expense, a ceiling fan in a rental unit, they legally have to leave it when they move out. So, let the Guggenheim install this million dollar work of “art” in the White House. Can’t have it back now!

  9. I would be remiss…

    Before the inauguration, George W. was invited to a ‘get acquainted’ tour
    of the White House. After drinking several glasses of iced tea, he asked
    President Clinton if he could use his personal bathroom. He was astonished to
    see that the President had a solid gold urinal! That afternoon, George W. told
    his wife, Laura, about the urinal.
    Just think, he said, when I am President, I’ll have my own personal
    gold urinal! Later, when Laura had lunch with Hillary at her tour of the White
    House, she told Hillary how impressed George had been with his discovery of the
    fact that, in the President’s private bathroom, the President had a gold urinal.
    That evening, Bill and Hillary were getting ready for bed. Hillary turned to
    Bill and said, Well, I found out who peed in your saxophone.

  10. Wow, I really hope the Guggenheim receives discretionary government grants. They should be gone first thing Monday morning, if there is any justice in the world.

    Fuck you democrats.
