President Donald Trump has unveiled a luxurious marble-and-gold renovation of the Lincoln Bathroom at the White House, replacing 1940s art deco green tiles with polished statuary marble that he believes better represents the Lincoln era. This marks the first significant alteration to the executive mansion itself, following other controversial changes to the White House grounds including the demolition of the East Wing for a $300 million ballroom.
