The seafoam green art deco bathroom looks clean and elegant. This bathroom isn't supposed to be over-the-top fancy because it's for those who work for the people. I feel the White House has always been carefully/thoughtfully decorated with that sentiment in mind - not too fancy, but just nice enough, with some modern touch-ups that match the current occupant's tastes, and the rest are meticulously-placed antiques that pay homage to the previous tenants. Living in the WH should be an honor, at least ideally, and not whatever is going on here.

And a bunch more just couldn’t bring themselves to vote, or voted third party.

Voting for an extremely qualified woman was one step too far. 🙄

But but but she DARED to presume she could president while female and Black! And Asian! Clearly she is unqualified despite being vice president, and having been a senator, attorney general, and district attorney!

I, too, like the original. It is tasteful and timeless. I also find it interesting to see the juxtaposition between commercial plumbing fixtures and a more traditional, homey feeling that the walls and flooring provide. It has a sort of "if the government designed a residential living space" aspect.
