Trump’s Latest White House Makeover: The Lincoln Bathroom in Marble and Gold

President Trump unveiled a renovation of the Lincoln Bedroom bathroom, posting two dozen photos of black and white marble with gold fixtures he says fit Abraham Lincoln’s era. The makeover comes amid broader changes, including demolishing the East Wing to make room for a planned 90,000-square-foot, $300 million ballroom funded by donors. Historians offered context: one said the old bathroom was dated and the update no preservation crime; another noted Lincoln’s time had simple water closets. Critics question funding transparency as donations are routed through a nonprofit not subject to transparency laws.
