Last time President Donald Trump was in office, he made some serious changes to the White House including the removal of the Obamas’ portraits from alongside the previous presidents and first ladies.
However, this time, the changes are quite gaudy and definitely give us the impression of what this term is going to look like: a hot mess. According to ABC 12 News, Trump has added a serious amount of gold medallions and statues, over 20 paintings, random trophies and framed magazine covers.

Fireplace Greenery

When President Joe Biden was in office, as well as other previous presidents, the Oval Office fireplace was donned with some sort of shrub and greenery, adding some color and life to the place.
Silver Fireplace Accents

Trump first redecorated with these silver trinkets along with some shrubbery.
“Gold Trinkets”

Now, there is no greenery at all but gold “trinkets” as people have called them and even added gold accents to the fireplace itself.
Presidential Portraits

Biden had a special set of Presidential portraits he had hanging above the fireplace.
New Presidential Portaits

Trump redesigned the portraits with his own selection of presidents including Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Lincoln, Andrew Jackson, Franklin D. Roosevelt and James Polk.
Biden’s Left Side of Oval Office Desk

Biden kept a rather clean look to the office area.
A FIFA Trophy?

On the left side of Trump’s desk, he’s placed a FIFA trophy to match the shiny, gold scheme. He also added an oil painting of Ronald Reagan.
Simple Backdrop

Nothing else was added to Biden’s backdrop except the two flags.
Gulf of America Sign

Trump’s backdrop is quite similar except there is a stand for his renamed “Gulf of America.”
A Royal Blue Sealed Rug

The blue was a nice pop of color (and very Democratic choice) to Biden’s office.
A Beige and Red Change

Trump switched out the navy for a more casual-toned rug.
Biden’s Simple Walls

Biden only donned two flags on the walls circling his desk.
Lots of Flags

Didn’t know there were so many flags one could have in a room, but, why not?
And More Flags

Elon Musk definitely cosigned on this one in particular.
Gold, Custom Paperweight

Of course Trump would need his own custom, shiny paperweight.
