https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/trump-post-white-house-eagle-154442721.html

The caption wasn't the only error. The shield in the golden eagle image carries just 11 stars, rather than the 13 that should represent the original colonies.

The post was shared by official White House social media channels before drawing sharp criticism from former Republican operative Steve Schmidt. "This is grotesque and un-American. 11 stars represents the Confederate States of America, not the United States of America," Schmidt wrote on X, noting that 11 Southern states ultimately formed the Confederacy after the Civil War began: South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, Virginia, Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Carolina.

But, Rustoleum gold, which that stuff almost certainly is, doesn't melt well. If it were up to me, that shitbag would be buried in a coffin full of that tacky shit with which he has defaced the White House. Put the fucking eagle on his tombstone.

If he ever read , did he read The Midas Touch ?

It was a metaphor not a real recounting of an event.

Everything he touches worsens

Big strong men have come up to me with tears in their eyes saying "Real Bald Eagles have no gold coloring."
