In a surprising move that seems to echo the antics of a mischievous grandparent, Donald Trump has opted to have the playset removed from the White House lawn. Despite having a ten-year-old son, Sammy, and multiple young grandchildren, Trump requested that the play structure, originally installed by former President Barack Obama for his daughters, be taken away.
According to a report on Mic, Obama graciously offered to leave the playset behind for the incoming President, but Trump declined the offer. With Sammy remaining in New York to finish the school year, the playset has already been removed, likely to clear space for a grandiose statue of Trump himself.
Typically, grandparents relish the opportunity to spoil their grandchildren, relishing the freedom from the responsibilities of parenthood. However, in this instance, it appears Trump may not have the same inclination. There’s a chance he’s unaware of his grandchildren’s existence, let alone their ages. After all, children are often seen as a mother’s domain, and Trump, preoccupied with his own agenda, might not even recognize a swing-set.
It’s plausible that Trump spent his own childhood focused on business ventures rather than playtime, which may explain his indifference to the Obamas donating the playset to a local organization for children to enjoy. Perhaps I’m being too critical; after all, what use would he have for such a playset? Given his preference for New York City and his reluctance to fully settle in Washington, D.C., it makes sense that he wouldn’t want to move a swing set.
If I were in his position, I’d consider relocating the slide to Trump Tower; it could serve as a fun slide into a metaphorical pile of wealth that he pretends to possess.
