Trump Library

 Not only must Trump build a presidential library, but he should make it a commercial success. Make it a resort, on beachfront property in Florida, with a golf course too. Create an in-house think tank to develop "America first" policies. And complete it before Obama finishes his.

The WAPO is all over it.


The Washington Post has published an op-ed arguing that President Donald Trump “must never have” a presidential library.

The paper, whose motto is “Democracy dies in darkness,” presented an argument Thursday by “art and architecture critic” Philip Kennicott about why the history of the Trump administration should, in fact, be shrouded in darkness.

Kennicott wrote: “Trump must never have an official presidential library, and Congress should move quickly to make sure he never will.”

He argued that Trump cannot be trusted to handle documents relating to his presidency, because he “mixed public and private interests.” He adds that Trump must be punished because he allegedly “incited an insurrection” on January 6.

Kennicott argued further that Trump might use a presidential library to tout his successes, which should not be allowed.
