President Trump‘s double impeachment isn’t altering some big plans he’s already making … to build and fill his Presidential Library.
As Trump prepares to move out of The White House, several boxes and items were hauled out Thursday … including a few storage containers marked “Presidential Library Gifts.”
The bins are clear, but it’s still hard to make out most of what’s inside them … although it looks like a mini baseball bat made the cut.
Presidents rack up gifts from all around the country and world during their time in The White House, and Trump’s Republican Presidential predecessor … George W. Bush houses approximately 43,000 such gifts at his Presidential Library and Museum in Dallas, TX.
Based on the labels on the storage bins … it appears Trump has a similar idea in mind.
However, even though every POTUS since Hoover has had a Presidential Library, it’s no easy project … and the tale of the Barack Obama Presidential Center is a perfect example. There have been major funding and planning challenges because all the money comes from private sources, and construction was suspended in the Fall. They’re hoping to restart sometime this year.
Considering Trump’s been impeached twice and has suffered major blows to his business lately, he might face similar challenges. But, we know he’s all about having his name on buildings … so ya gotta think he’s gonna try.

As we reported … along with moving boxes, a bust of Abraham Lincoln was taken out of The White House Thursday, which raised some eyebrows. The White House Historical Association says everything is being handled appropriately, though.
