To White House Throne Room

Trump administration officials announced on
Monday that renovations on the White House Throne
Room have been completed.
According to sources, the new throne room had
undergone extensive remodeling to reflect President
Donald Trump’s increased monarchic power and bring
greater honor and prestige to his historic reign over the
nation.
“It is now truly fitting for a king,” Press Secretary
Karoline Leavitt reported. “The White House Throne
Room has been retrofitted with golden accents, a
diamond encrusted gold throne, and a mural depicting
President Trump on a horse rampaging through a
peaceful protest.”
Though most Americans were unaware, the throne
room was first constructed following the War of 1812
but fell into disrepair when presidents began spending
a significant time abroad. In light of this weekend’s “No
Kings” protests, the president ordered it be modernized
for immediate use.
“These people seem to think it’s bad to have a king
— a concept completely at odds with America,” Barron
Trump reportedly told his father. “We must show them
what a proper king looks like. We must show them,
father.”
Following Leavitt’s press briefing, Trump held
court in the throne room to hear the pleas of journalists,
which he repeatedly denied.
“Wrong! You’re fake news!” Trump shouted at one
point. “I will not return your farmland!”
At publishing time, President Trump demanded
that the American Crown Jewels be cleaned forthwith.
