Trump Removes MLK Bust from Oval Office

It is in the first paragraph of the article. It is in a private dining room right next to the Oval Office.

According to the White House, and a refusal to show a picture... Maybe same guy who said 250,000 at parade?
 
Was it removed before or after the NAACP announced that Trump was the president in over 100 years that is not invited to the NAACP convention?

While this is going on, the President is hosting Charlie Kirk, who has openly opined that the Civil Rights Act was a mistake. He has dined with Nick Fuentes, an avowed white nationalist. He is letting on refugees of "white genocide" while deporting brown people left and right. He is enacting arbitrary travel bans of primary BROWN COUNTRIES. THEY'RE EATING THE CATS THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS in response to peaceful, LEGAL Haitian migrants. Birtherism? Central Park 5?

How much ****ing racist shit does he have to do for you to admit he's a ****ing racist piece of shit? There are literally thousands of examples at this point, I've only named a couple.

Sorry, but the false narrative of the MLK bust being removed is false and race baiters are always gonna bait.

You know. He was big on character. Quoted it often.

Ever hear of Jacob and David? They had flaws, too. Judging people on the content of their character means their whole character, not just the part you want to focus on.
 
I imagine talking about character as often as he did was problematic is not ackward when these stories were released.

As I edited post-quote, judging people means judging their whole character. I can judge MLK's whole character and Donald Trump's character in whole and conclude reasonably than the former contributed far greater good to this country than the latter.

MLK was not only a civil rights leader; he promoted better wages and working/living conditions for people. He was murdered while supporting Memphis sanitation workers.

But we get why you find him a flawed man and it has nothing to do with how many women he shacked up with or how many illegitimate children he sired.

Got it.

You didn't discover that....lol, delusional. Did you catch the title of the OP's news source? And please do share your proof that it is in the dining room.....other than a Trump spokesman's say so.

You guys had years to come up with a candidate that could take on Trump but you insisted on Biden. Then when it finally dawned on ever your side that Biden was senile, you only tossed up the joke that Harris is. Nobody, not even many Dems, liked her. You could have had another Primary and come up with a good candidate... but you didn't. You are as at fault as those that voted for him.

I voted for Bernie twice in the primary, Biden was my last choice but I think he did a good job and had some damn good advice from his cabinet. Regardless of the picture the right draws, Biden got a lot done through Congress unlike trump ruling by EO.

First off, your source has a clear leftist lean.
Per Grok/AI: There is no conclusive evidence that President Donald Trump had the bust of Martin Luther King Jr. removed from the White House as of June 16, 2025. There is chatter that he removed the bust from the Oval Office to his private dining room though but that too has not been officially verified.

No name of the senior officer has been verified by the source listed below.

The title of the OP's source clearly states it was "moved to the Dining Room" but that WH refused to provide a picture of its new placement.

Your post is an attempt at diversion asking for evidence it was removed from the WH....
 
The party of tearing down statues and digging up bodies cries about the relocation of a bust.

Irony GOLD.
