No matter where you land on the political landscape, that is an A+ trolling job. As someone who loves a good troll job, this is a zinger. I just can’t believe it was sent out into the world from behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office. Having 56.9 Million twitter followers and being able to troll someone into bolizan is a power that few should have.

Having a desk with a name is pretty fucking dope too. The Resolute Desk. Now, my sources are telling me that the Resolute desk is a nineteenth-century partners’ desk used by several presidents of the United States in the White House Oval Office as the Oval Office desk. It was a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1880 and was built from the English oak timbers of the British Arctic exploration ship HMS Resolute. Franklin Roosevelt requested the addition of a door with the presidential seal to conceal his leg braces. Many presidents since Hayes, except Johnson, Nixon, and Ford, have used the desk at various locations in the White House.

The desk was removed from the White House only once, after the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy, when President Lyndon Johnson allowed it to go on a traveling exhibition with the Kennedy Presidential Library. After this it was put on display in the Smithsonian Institution.

President Jimmy Carter brought the desk back to the Oval Office in 1977, where Presidents Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump have used it. George H. W. Bush used the C&O desk in the Oval Office, but kept the Resolute desk in the White House.

Incredible. Kinda disappointed that H. W didnt use it though. Out of respect, I’ll keep my comments to myself. I am disappointed though.

Anyway, I need to name my desk. But what? This is tough! Here’s a picture of it.

I’ll think about it and get back to you. Fuck. Now I’m gonna be thinking about this all day.
