Now this story sounds a little funny to me. Why would Karl Rove and no one else be talking about it? On the other hand they don’t seem to be getting a comment out of the White House. And the Obama legacy will be failure to properly pay attention to security. So let’s get an answer from the White House on this, because this is ridiculous if true.
Via Daily Mail:
President-elect Donald Trump has captured the White House, but he may have to wait a while to ensconce himself inside the Oval Office.
Former George W. Bush advisor Karl Rove said Wednesday that major security upgrades are planned for the ceremonial office and seat of presidential power – and that it could put the office out of commission for up to a year.
If that occurs, he said, President Trump might have to spend up to a quarter of his term working out of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building across the street – where President Richard Nixon labored and made some of his infamous White House recordings.
‘My understanding is that for the first year of his time in office, President Trump will not have the Oval Office,’ Rove told Fox News on Wednesday.
Update:
White House finally responded to the question.
