White House source hounds Trump as 'demented old man with tacky tastes'

RADAR Online confirmed source information from a new book that President Donald Trump likes to wander around the White House gluing goldish bits and gewgaws onto walls — but it doesn’t sound much better the way anonymous White House sources frame it.

Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump, a book by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, claims Trump has been personally decorating the White House by using a tube of super glue to jam gold ornamentation over the historic building. But RADAR’s sources say Trump’s little glue pen is nothing new.

"A source familiar with the White House told Radar the episode reflected Trump's highly personal approach to the presidency rather than an isolated incident,” reports reporter Aaron Tinney.

"People around him understand that if he has an idea about how something should look, he's likely to carry it out himself. It has become part of the way the White House operates under this administration,” said one source. "But it comes across as the behavior of a demented old man with tacky tastes."

"The president likes to oversee every detail of his surroundings. Whether it's a major construction proposal or a decorative flourish inside the Oval Office, he wants the final result to reflect his own taste and vision,” said another source, speaking of Trump’s arty tidbit additions.

Another insider said Trump's involvement in the décor had become well known among staff members.

The book has already unleashed several revelations about Trump's second term and it “portrays a president driven by grievances, instinct and an intense desire to reshape Washington in his own image,” according to Radar.

Revelations include just how impenetrable Trump’s “hermetically-sealed bubble,” of misinformation and flatter is in his second administration.

“His aides are not eager to bring criticisms to him — in fact, mostly they keep them away from him, because they know there's a limited amount of capital that they're willing to spend by being the one to say, ‘Hey, here's some bad news,’” Swan told an MS NOW anchor on Wednesday.

Other disclosures include Trump’s habit of letting trash collect around his living quarters, his isolation from the First Lady and his habit of throwing out expensive silver White House cutlery and utensils.

Trump is a compulsive all-night social media crawler, as indicated by his outlandish, hours-long chain posts and his perpetual narcolepsy during meetings and press engagements. But Haberman and Swan say all that overnight online raging comes complete with a long string of fast food and the resulting trash and wrappers.
