'Unfathomable': Conservative floored by report of Trump supergluing gold in Oval Office

A CNN pundit couldn't believe the description of President Donald Trump's super glue fiasco revealed in an upcoming book.The upcoming book Regime Change by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan detailed how White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt walked into the Oval Office to find Trump clutching a tube of super glue and attempting to affix gold decorations to the marble fireplace mantle.SE Cupp, a conservative political commentator, described the episode as unfathomable during an appearance on CNN on Thursday.It is unfathomable to imagine a U.S. president super-gluing anything in the Oval Office, Cupp said. That's wacko, but it's easier to imagine this president doing it.She added that, It's the perfect metaphor for the Trump presidency, as so many things are, from the Reflecting Pool to the ballroom, referring to two embattled and lavish Trump projects.Trump came up in business by putting his name on buildings, Cupp said. He didn't have to own them superficially. He was looking to look powerful and important.She admitted that the image of Trump gluing gold decorations onto the Oval Office actually makes perfect sense.
