Pondering A Presidential Library

Every once in awhile we have to take a leap into the future and think about what some things will look like given our current state of affairs. So I sat the other day just pondering what Donald Trump's Presidential Library would be like. It was an odd thought actually, but I decided to go ahead with it and let my mind explore all of the possibilities.

We certainly know that it won't have any books other than the ghostwritten "The Art of The Deal". But based on information we've seen from the Mueller Report, no notes, no emails, no text messages, nothing really in writing from his presidency other than those Executive Orders he holds up so proudly after filling half a page with his signature.

So if there isn't any written material, what will there be. Well as I see it, lots of videos. Videos of rallies with fist pumping, lower lip biting and chants of 'lock her up' and 'build that Wall'. Of course there will also be videos of hand shakes and back slaps with Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un. No translator notes but perhaps a few copies of love letters between the three of them. Yes, videos will dominate the Library itself along with displays of Photoshopped pictures, self portraits and magazine covers. Life size or bigger I think.

The building itself will be magnificent, a huge tower like structure with many gold plated amenities, a huge clean coal fired furnace will heat the building. There will be a wonderful escalator ride for the kids from the first to the second floor. Of course many of the rooms and areas will be empty due to the lack of written material but the drapes and carpets will be wonderful.

The main attraction will be the gift and souvenir shop located on the 52nd floor or perhaps the 60th floor depending on your particular attitude about the building and the Trump Presidency. The shop will offer everything - MAGA Hats and T-Shirts, Trump Water, Trump Steaks, Trump Wine, golf clubs, golf shirts, yes everything you can imagine. Before you leave, you and your family or guests will be directed to the Mar-A-Largo all you can eat Buffet.

The biggest question of course is where the structure will be located. New York State is out of the question. Codes, and regulations make NYS next to impossible but Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin are all vying for site selection. There will definitely have to be a big, huge, beautiful wall around the building, something akin to Lewisburg Penitentiary or the US Penitentiary at Leavenworth, and the property itself should be swamp like but solid. Visitors on weekends only.

Yes, it will be magnificent. Nothing but the best.
