In the early 21st century the House of Trump became patrons of witless tweets, tasteless television, vile insults, oafish speeches, venal commerce, backwoods science and self absorbed philosophy. One of the best works of art surviving this period is the Mona Goya.

Future generations will define us by our art. They will be deeply disturbed. rawstory.com/2019/08/trump-…

I used to be on the board of a museum and I get that people try hard to preserve cultural treasures and talented interpretations of our era. But god help us.

Salvator Mundi sold for $450M but its a badly executed fake. Didn't matter. Hundreds of millions from an oligarch to a dictator to pay for Israel dirty trickster paid by Nader, intro'd by Prince, to elect Trump. Conspiracy theory or true? #ArtOfTheSteal narativ.org/2019/01/02/sal…

Trump did a book deal. 'The Art of the Deal" It was all bullshit and puffery. He wasn't an artist. He didn't have talent. He had daddy's money. Trump was a fake. Just like all the gilt furniture and faux gold he uses in his Tower, home and businesses. newyorker.com/magazine/2016/…

The "art" of Donald Trump is that everything he has done is "fake". Trickery, false perspective, artful touches and creative deceit. Donald should have been a painter. He was already rich enough to go to art school and smoke weed and argue Proust. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Donald is an artist. A con artist. He is a showman. He was on TV pretending to be rich. He had casinos that lost money. He wrote books that were scams. He had a university that was sued. He had a charity that stole from kids. The man is fucking artist. bbc.com/future/article…

He is such an artist that he paints his face every day. He is a prolific Twitter haikuist. He has invented more new words than Shakespeare. Every day he inspires the world to be creative and interpret our world through art. #ThankYouForYourArtService pulse.ng/bi/politics/th…
