On Thursday, Trump took his first executive action following the midterm elections—a proclamation designating the White House’s Oval Office and Cabinet Room as a “national monument” and “federal landmark.” He stated the move would prevent future presidents from dismantling or otherwise altering his redesign of these spaces. This marks the third such initiative this week related to his efforts to physically reconfigure the White House and Washington, D.C. On Monday, the day before the midterms, he delivered a speech at the Reflecting Pool in front of the Lincoln Memorial, focusing on the renovation of the site. On Wednesday, he toured the construction site of the White House State Dining Room, celebrating the installation of its final steel beam, which he signed.
